CircSMAD2 [103]was associated with differentiation of HCC tissues and circRNA-5692 [104] was correlated with AFP level, cirrhosis history, tumor size, and metastasis; hsa_circ_0005986 [105] was linked to chronic hepatitis B family history, tumor size, microvascular invasion (MVI) and BCLC stage; circC3P1 was negatively correlated with TNM stage, tumor size and MVI; circSETD was significantly associated with tumor size and differentiation of HCC tissues. This evidence concerns the gene AFP and neoplasm.
