Research Article: C-Reactive Protein-Albumin Ratio (CAR): A More Promising Inflammation-Based Prognostic Marker for Patients Undergoing Curative Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Abstract:
Hepatectomy is a major radical therapy method for resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients.– However, the majority of experience high recurrence rates after surgery, leading to unsatisfactory long-time survival. Thus, the recognition of high-risk patients with poor outcomes using an accurate, efficient, and convenient preoperative model is of great significance allowing for the optimization of adjuvant therapy and improvement of the long-term prognosis for patients.
