    Incorporating the FIGO staging system didn't significantly improved the model's performance for predicting LVSI. age, Pathology, Depth of Stromal Invasion (DSI), SCC-Ag, and Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) were included in the nomogram prediction model for the combined cohort. The AUC for the model-development cohort and validation cohort was 0.754 (95% CI: 0.711, 0.798) and 0.789 (95% CI: 0.727, 0.852), respectively. In both the model-development and validation cohorts, risk stratification effectively distinguished the high-risk group, which had a significantly higher proportion of positive cases compared to the low and middle-risk groups (p < 0.01).
