Background To investigate the prognostic values of the change of α-fetoprotein within 1
week after resection of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods We retrospectively analyzed …

AIM To investigate whether the change in pre-/post-operation serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)
levels is a predictive factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) outcomes. METHODS We …

Background Serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is frequently used to predict posthepatectomy
outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its predictive value is still not …

Objective To explore the correlation between alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and the prognosis of
hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatectomy in an ethnic Chinese population. Methods This …

Background Assessing the outcomes of surgeries for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
patients who exceed the Milan criteria is necessary. Some studies have demonstrated that …

Introduction Although preoperative α-fetoprotein (AFP) has been recognized as an important
tumor marker among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the predictive value of …

Background The value of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) as a prognostic indicator in patients with
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been proposed in recent studies, but the evidence so …

Background This study evaluates the efficacy of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) response as a
surrogate marker for determining recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with …

Objective: To explore the prognostic value of the postsurgical half-life (HL) of serum alpha-
fetoprotein (AFP). Background: There is still a paucity of early surrogate indicators of clinical …

Background While the majority of studies report that a raised serum α-fetoprotein (AFP) level
before operation is associated with a high risk of recurrence and death in patients who …
