In the multivariate analysis, independent risk factors for tumor recurrence (Table 3) were AFP/TTV > 2 (HR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.29–1.98, P = 0.042), Macrovascular invasion (HR = 2.03, 95% CI = 2.17–2.38, P = 0.021, and microvascular invasion (HR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.08–1.77, P = 0.019). The gene discussed is AFP; the disease is neoplasm.
