Univariable analysis by means of Cox proportional hazards regression revealed that AFP, CA199, tumor size, tumor number, liver cirrhosis, microvascular invasion (MVI), tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging, and UBE2T were associated with TTR (all P < 0.05, Table 2) and that AFP, CA199, albumin (ALB), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), tumor size, tumor number, MVI, TNM staging, and UBE2T were related to OS (all P < 0.05, Table 3). The gene discussed is TTR; the disease is cirrhosis of liver.
