Analysis were performed using Cox proportional hazards model. *, P<0.05 by the Cox regression test. HBsAg, hepatitis B surface antigen; TB, total bilirubin; ALB, albumin; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; γ-GT, γ-glutamyl-transferase; CEA, carcinoembryonic antigen; CA19-9, carbohydrate antigen 19-9; TACE, transhepatic arterial chemotherapy and embolization. OS, overall survival; DFS, disease-free survival; ICC, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
