The present study analyzed the impact of age on the causes of death (CODs) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) undergoing chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using machine learning approaches. A total of 2841 patients (1037 classified as older, ≥ 60 years and 1804 as younger, < 60 years) were enrolled. Variations in the CODs between the two age groups were analyzed before and after applying inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).

Methods: This retrospective observational study included patients aged ≥ 16 years who were admitted to the intensive care unit at Chiba University Hospital.
