tyears: Time in years until death or last follow-up
diameter: Diameter of the primary tumor
posnod: Number of positive lymph nodes
age: Age of the patient
mlratio: Estrogen level?
chemotherapy: Chemotherapy used (yes/no)
hormonaltherapy: Hormonal therapy used (yes/no)
typesurgery: Type of surgery (excision or mastectomy)
histolgrade: Histological grade (Intermediate, poorly, or well differentiated)
vasc.invasion: Vascular invasion (-, +, or +/-)
crossval.clin.class: ??
PICV: Estrogen level?
