| Core Tip |
Previous studies have suggested that many factors are associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) patients. However, the evaluation of risk factors using a case-control study has not been reported. This case-control study analyzed the characteristics of PBC-associated HCC and investigated the relevant risk factors. The incidence of HCC was 4.13% in Chinese PBC patients, and it was more frequent in the male patients. Our results show for the first time that body mass index ≥ 25 and a history of alcohol intake are independent risk factors for HCC in PBC patients. |
