Summary

This study aims to explore the levels of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), a protein often elevated in liver cancer, in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The goal is to determine whether AFP levels vary based on the size of the liver tumor or other health conditions like hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and obesity. By analyzing data from 94 patients, the study seeks to identify factors that influence AFP levels, which may help in understanding liver cancer progression and improving diagnosis and treatment approaches.
