AFP and hepatocellular carcinoma: Compared to patients with HBV DNA undetectable (n = 75), patients with detectable HBV DNA (n = 42) had higher AFP concentration (p < .001), higher proportion of macrovascular invasion (p = .014), greater tumour diameter (p < .001), poorer TNM stage (p = .017), and higher proportion of extended OLT criteria (p = .011) and HCC recurrence (p = .036).
