Figure 7 Comparison of male-to-female ratio between two age groups of HBV-related HCC patients without HCV infection.
The age-specific male-to-female ratio in Japanese patients with HBV-associated HCC was examined from 1994 to 2006 in Tokushima. Nine hundred and one patients (mean age 49.3 yr, 76.4% males) were divided into two age groups, based on the menopausal age of 50 yr. HCC was detected at the indicated age. All subjects were seropositive for HBsAg and seronegative for HCV antibody.
