WQS regression identifies relevant trace elements in the blood for ESCC risk, tumor invasion depth, and metastatic risk. Panel A bar plot depicts the positive weights of each element attributed to the mixture, while Panel B depicts the negative weights. The red dashed line represents the significant thresholds (equal to the reciprocal of the number of elements in the mixture). Models were adjusted for age and gender.
