Subsequently, variables with P < .05 on univariate analysis including etiology, tumor size, tumor number, AFP, PIVKA‐II, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, anemia, platelet count, bilirubin, albumin, ascites, AST, ALT, and ALP (alkaline phosphatase) levels were entered into a multivariate Cox‐regression model. This evidence concerns the gene AFP and anemia.
