The .cel files of each sample from GEO database were normalized using the RSN method by “lumi” package in R 3.3.1. Microarray quality control was performed using the array...

...Luca Viganò; Andrea Laurenzi; Luigi Solbiati; Fabio Procopio; Daniel Cherqui; Guido Torzilli Background: Patients with a single hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ≤3 cm and preserved liver function have the highest likelihood to be cured if treated. The most adequate treatment methods are yet a matter...

... patients are undergoing hepatectomy. Methods: Five-hundred and thirty patients who underwent hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were retrospectively analyzed with respect to their preoperative status and perioperative results, including remnant liver regeneration. The remnant liver volume...
