What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. tumor recurrence and metastasis

    Examination of tumor recurrence include serum levels of alpha-fetoprotein(AFP), chest radiography, abdominal ultrasonography, chest or abdominal computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and bone scintigraphy

    Measured: within the first year after liver transplantation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Postoperative survival

    Postoperative survival include rates of disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival(OS), tumor recurrence and death.

    Measured: within the first year after liver transplantation
