Core Tip

Core Tip: By comparing the gene expression levels of hepatocellular carcinoma patients with different grades, we investigated the biological function of genes and selected 13 genes to construct a prognostic model. The results show that the model has effective predictive ability for liver cancer prognosis and appreciated clinical interpretation value.
