Aim Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with sarcopenia have a poor survival, but there are no predictive markers for survival relating to muscle mass and liver function. Therefore, we investigated whether the ratio between estimated glomerular filtration rates of serum creatinine (Scre) and serum cystatin C (Scys)(eGFRcre/eGFRcys) can be used as a predictive marker of survival in HCC patients. Methods First, the correlation between Scre/Scys ratio and muscle mass was examined in 50 patients with chronic liver disease …
