These patients had a significantly larger tumor size on computed tomography (p < 0.0001), a higher aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ratio (p = 0.037), and an elevated c-reactive protein (CRP) level (p = 0.014) preoperatively compared with those with pathological T1 RCC. Here, GPT is linked to renal cell carcinoma.
