Do cancer of the Liver Italian Program ( CLIP ) score for staging hepatocellular carcinoma?
The CLIP score keeps good prognostic and discriminative abilities after a longer follow up and remains one the most useful prognostic system for hepatocellular carcinoma.
The results provided insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the thermal adaptation of different congener endemic bay scallops, which suggested that the increased heat tolerance of A. i. concentricus (compared with A. i. irradians) was associated with the higher expression of AiHSP70. Meanwhile, the -967 GG, -480 AA, -408 TT and -83 AG genotypes could be potential markers for scallop selection breeding with higher heat tolerance.
