Hidenori Toyoda, Takashi Kumada, Yukio Osaki, Hiroko Oka, Fumihiro Urano, Masatoshi Kudo, Takashi Matsunaga Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology Volume 4, Issue 12, Pages (December 2006) DOI: /j.cgh Copyright © 2006 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Distribution of patients with HCC according to tumor marker elevation. Cutoff values were set at 400 ng/mL for AFP, 15% for AFP-L3, and 100 mAU/mL for DCP. Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2006 4, DOI: ( /j.cgh ) Copyright © 2006 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Patient survival according to the elevation of a tumor marker. (A) According to the elevation of AFP; (B) according to AFP-L3; (C) according to DCP. Patients with elevation of a tumor marker exhibited significantly lower survival rate in comparison with those without the elevation of tumor marker for all 3 markers.

Figure 3 Patient survival according to tumor progression. (A) According to TNM tumor stage by Liver Cancer Study Group of Japan; (B) according to number of elevated tumor markers. Both systems predicted patient survival well, and the discriminative ability was comparable.

Figure 4 Patient survival according to remnant liver function. (A) According to Child-Pugh classification; (B) according to serum bilirubin-albumin score. Both systems predicted patient survival well, and the discriminative ability was comparable.

Figure 5 Patient survival according to previously reported staging systems. (A) According to CLIP scoring system; (B) according to JIS scoring system. Both systems predicted patient survival well.

Figure 6 Patient survival according to BALAD scoring system. BALAD scores predicted patient survival well, and the discriminative ability was comparable to that of the CLIP and JIS systems.
