Prognostic factors after resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in noncirrhotic livers: univariate and multivariate analysis.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:The association between socioeconomic status (SES) and relative survival of rectal cancer is little investigated. We hypothesized that the impact on risk of death by SES would be much smaller when differences in background mortality (comorbidity, lifestyle factors) were taken into account, i.e. in modellin...
