Reduced depression by CEC in patients with HCC who underwent surgery. HADS-D score in CEC group was decreased compared to control group at M12 (A) and the decrease in HADS-D score (M12-M0) was larger in CEC group compared with control group (B). At M12, the percentage of depressive patients was lower in CEC group compared with control group (C), whereas the depression severity was similar between the 2 groups (D).

CEC = comprehensive education and care, HADS-D = Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Depression, HCC = hepatocellular carcinoma, NS = nonsignificant.
