Table 3 Uni- and multivariate analysis to identify preoperative prognostic factors associated with overall survival in the 189 patients with HCC

From: Onodera’s prognostic nutritional index is a strong prognostic indicator for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after initial hepatectomy, especially patients with preserved liver function
