In the training cohort of 289 patients, TB level (>17.1 vs. ≤17.1), ALBI (1 vs. 2 vs. 3), AKP (Positive vs. Negative), AAPR (≤0.4 vs. > 0.4), albumin level (<35 vs. ≥35 g/L), γ-GT (>50 vs. ≤50 U/L), CA19-9 (>37 vs. ≤37 kU/L), Child-Pugh grade (B vs. A), maximum tumor size (Continuous variable, cm), lymph node status [Nx (low risk) vs. Nx (high risk) vs. N0 vs. N1], and histological differentiation (Well vs. Moderate/Poor) were related to DSS in the univariable Cox regression analysis (Table 2). Here, ALB is linked to neoplasm.
