Univariate analysis was conducted and showed that the degree of cirrhosis (P=0.005), AFP concentration (P=0.038), tumor size (P<0.001), tumor number (P=0.002), vascular invasion (P<0.001), differentiation (P=0.001), Child-Pugh grade (P=0.044) and ALBI-GGT score (P<0.001) were potential prognostic factors for overall survival. Here, AFP is linked to neoplasm.
