Forty-three patients (78.2%) were classified as Child–Pugh class A, one patient from the non-CR group was classified as Child–Pugh class C, and the others were considered Child–Pugh class B. There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, sex, etiology of liver disease, presence of liver cirrhosis, Child–Pugh class, or laboratory findings involving AFP and PIVKA-II (p > 0.05). The gene discussed is AFP; the disease is cirrhosis of liver.
