CRP and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: NAFLD-related HCC patients with baseline CRP values of ≥5 mg/L or with PLR ≥ 150 lived significantly shorter (p = 0.012 and p = 0.0028, respectively); on the contrary, there was no difference in the overall survival when an NLR cut-off value of 2.5 was used (Figure 6).
