Serum miR-224 Reflects Stage of Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Predicts Survival

Figure 2

Serum miR-224 level in different subgroups of patients. (a) A comparison ofmiR-224 expression levels in HCC patients with BCLC B stage and BCLC C stage. Statistical significance was calculated. (b) Serum miR-224 in HCC patients with PVTT was significantly higher than that without PVTT. (c) No significant difference of serum miR-224 level in patients with local advanced HCC and extra-liver metastasis was evident.
