Table 1. Tumor sizes of each group before and after TACE procedure and the tumor growth rate of each group.

Groups	Tumor Size		Tumor Growth Rate (%) V2/V1 × 100%
	V1(one day before TACE procedure)	V2(seven days after TACE procedure)
Group I-LY	1.805 ± 0.277	2.184 ± 0.391	116.59 ± 18.03***
Group I	1.894 ± 0.332	2.729 ± 0.489	145.17 ± 18.68
Group LY	1.812 ± 0.276	2.842 ± 0.320	156.24 ± 31.46
Group NS	1.806 ± 0.352	3.535 ± 0.486	198.68 ± 22.18
F value			19.989
P value			0.00

The tumor growth rate(TGR) of Group I-LY was significantly decreased compared with the other three groups (p = 0.00 < 0.05).
