Furthermore, the multivariate Cox regression model indicated high Sorcin expression was an independent risk factor for DFS (HR 2.373; 95% CI 1.508 to 3.734, P = 0.008; Table 3) and OS (HR 2.412, 95% CI 1.685 to 3.453, P = 0.016; Table 3) in HCC. This evidence concerns the gene SRI and hepatocellular carcinoma.
