Comparisons of event-free survival and maintenance of Child-Pugh class after hepatectomy between patients with preoperative BTR ≥5.0 and <5.0. (A) Event-free survival. The survival rate was significantly higher in patients with preoperative BTR ≥5.0 (solid line) than BTR <5.0 (dotted line) (p = 0.0238). (B) Maintenance of Child-Pugh class. The rate of maintenance of Child-Pugh class was significantly higher in patients with preoperative BTR ≥5.0 (solid line) than BTR <5.0 (dotted line) (p = 0.0494). The numbers of patients at risk are shown below each graph. BTR branched chain amino acid/tyrosine ratio.
