Aim Of The Study: To assess the serum level of Mac-2 binding protein glycosylation isomer as a potential biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) cirrhotic patients.
Material And Methods: Ninety patients were separated into two groups for the current research. Group I consisted of 45 patients with HCV that resulted in liver cirrhosis but no HCC.
Aim: This study aims to investigate the clinical utility of the derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) and the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) in predicting treatment outcomes for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing combination therapy with atezolizumab and bevacizumab (Atez/Bev).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 310 patients. The dNLR, NLR, and GNRI were calculated, and their impact on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) was assessed.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether tumor-associated lymphatic vessel density (LVD) could predict the survival of patients with hepato-biliary-pancreatic (HBP) cancers after radical resection.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library from the inception to July 31, 2024 for literature that reported the role of LVD in overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients with HBP cancers after radical resection.
Results: Ten studies with 761 patients were included for the meta-analysis.

Background: Nonislet cell tumor hypoglycemia (NICTH) is a rare but serious complication of malignancy. Various causes of this type of hypoglycemia include excessive tumor burden resulting in destruction of the liver or adrenal glands, production of autoantibodies against insulin and tumoral production of incompletely processed IGF-2.
Objectives: Objective of this case report is to explore pathogenic mechanisms for hypoglycemia in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and evidence-based treatment options.

Background: Resistance to lenvatinib poses a serious threat to the therapy of patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). The mechanism by which HCC develops resistance to lenvatinib is currently unknown.
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify key genes and pathways involved in lenvatinib resistance in HCC using bioinformatic analysis and experimental validation.
