The one-year survival rate is related to factors such as age older than 50 years, CLIP score <3, ALP <120 U/l, LDH <450 IU/l, CRP <0.8 mg/dl, tumor size less than 6 cm, disease stage, and Child-Pugh less than 7 that is associated with increased mortality (Toyoda et al., 2004[107]; Georgiades et al., 2006[29]; Jun et al., 2013[45]; Agarwal et al., 2015[1]). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is neoplasm.
