Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary hepatic neoplasm. Thanks to recent advances in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), there is potential to improve detection, segmentation, discrimination from HCC mimics, and monitoring of therapeutic response. Radiomics, artificial intelligence (AI), and derived tools have already been applied in other areas of diagnostic imaging with promising results. In this review, we briefly discuss the current clinical applications of radiomics and AI in the detection, segmentation, and management of HCC. Moreover, we investigate their potential to reach a more accurate diagnosis of HCC and to guide proper treatment planning.

Background And Objective: In clinical practice, CK19 can be an important predictor for the prognosis of HCC. Due to the high incidence and mortality rates of HCC, more effective and practical prognostic prediction models need to be developed urgently.

Methods: A total of 1,168 HCC patients, who underwent radical surgery at the Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital, between January 2014 and July 2019, were recruited, and their clinicopathological data were collected.

Background: Abundant research indicates that increased extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness significantly enhances the malignant characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Plectin, an essential cytoskeletal linker protein, has recently emerged as a promoter of cancer progression, particularly in the context of cancer cell invasion and metastasis. However, the responsiveness of plectin to changes in ECM stiffness and its impact on HCC progression remain unclear.

Introduction: With the increasing impact of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on society, there is an urgent need to propose new HCC diagnostic biomarkers and identification models. Histone lysine lactylation (Kla) affects the prognosis of cancer patients and is an emerging target in cancer treatment. However, the potential of Kla-related genes in HCC is poorly understood.

Pembrolizumab plus Lenvatinib is regarded as a significant treatment option for advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aims to meticulously monitor and identify adverse events (AEs) related to this combined therapy, enhance patient safety, and offer evidence-based recommendations for the appropriate use of these drugs. We gathered adverse drug reactions (ADRs)-related data from the FAERS database for HCC patients who received Pembrolizumab, both alone and in combination with Lenvatinib from the first quarter of 2014 to the fourth quarter of 2023.

Gaucher disease (GD) is a rare genetic disorder with multi-system involvement. Liver fibrosis is a long-term complication of GD, potentially leading to cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, and hepatocellular carcinoma. There are currently no validated clinical tools for the monitoring of liver fibrosis in patients with GD.
