Inflammatory Scores: Comparison and Utility in HCC Patients Undergoing Transarterial Chemoembolization in a North American Cohort.

While AFP (HR 1.08, 95% CI: 1.00–1.16, p = 0.05) nearly reached significance, neither tumor size (HR 0.98, 95% CI: 0.93–1.04, p = 0.55) nor Child-Pugh (HR 1.08, 95% CI: 0.94–1.24, p = 0.28) was associated with PFS.

When multivariate analysis was performed and lymphocyte count was not included, NLR showed a trend toward association with OS in a model that did not include tumor size, AFP, or Child-Pugh score, but the trend no longer existed when these variables were included.
