The AUC for the Fib/Alb ratio (dichotomized) was 0.635 (95% CI, 0.539–0.731), which was higher than that for other indexes (cirrhosis, AFP, tumor size, tumor encapsulation, microvascular invasion, tumor differentiation, BCLC stage, NLR, PLR, ALBI grade, and tumor number) for predicting overall survival in HCC patients after curative resection (Table 4). This evidence concerns the gene FBL and hepatocellular carcinoma.
