Abstract:
At present, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is recognized as an important risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the world; however, during the development and progression of hepatitis B, liver cirrhosis, and liver cancer, other factors may promote the development of HCC independently or synergistically with HBV, such as sex, age, family history, alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase, smoking and drinking history, metabolic syndrome, and HCV or HIV infection. This article reviews the research advances in the risk factors associated with HCC.
