A Powerful Nomogram Based on the Novel D-Index to Predict Prognosis After Surgical Resection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

摘要

Conventional staging and scoring systems such as the Tumor, Node, and Metastasis; Cancer of the Liver Italian Program; Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer; and Okuda have failed to predict overall survival (OS) in patients with resected primary hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, we aimed to establish a novel D-index and nomogram to improve prognostic accuracy.
