Fig 3. Background pre-treatment characteristics and NKG2D expression.

Fig 3

Pre-treatment NKG2D expression was, (a) compared by sex, SVR status, FIB-4 score, and HCC past history with case numbers shown below each group; (b) compared by early emergence of HCC or not in cases restricted to advanced fibrosis (FIB-4 score over 3.25; left panel) and cirrhosis (APRI over 2.0; right panel); (c) compared between cases with or without HCC past history as cases restricted to advanced fibrosis (FIB-4 score over 3.25). Filled circles represent cases with early-emerging HCC and open circles represent cases without. Statistics were shown as mean with SD. *, P< 0.05; NS, not significant.
