Quality of life of African-American and white long term breast carcinoma survivors.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Heavy alcohol consumption, viral hepatitis, and diabetes are risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, to the authors' knowledge, the information concerning their interaction effect in patients with risk of HCC is sparse. METHODS:A population-based, case-control study of HCC was conducted du...
