The word “groups” present in the original manuscript was inadvertently deleted during the production process, thus changing the meaning of entire section. The correct result section of the abstract is given below:
Results We analyzed a large HCC cohort containing 366 (63.3%) PVT-positive patients and found that PVT is associated with patients having larger tumors and higher levels of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and des-gamma carboxyprothrombin (DCP). We identified in patients with normal bilirubin levels (≤2.0 mg/dl), two PVT-positive patient groups, having higher and lower AFP levels, respectively. They differed in the significantly better prognosis of the low AFP patients, which may be useful for patient management decisions.
