Review Meta Analysis
The effect of prediabetes on hepatocellular carcinoma risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Some studies suggested an increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk in subjects with prediabetes, whereas other studies have reported negative results. Therefore, we did this meta-analysis to assess the role of prediabetes on HCC risk. ⋯ In conclusion, this meta-analysis demonstrated that prediabetes might be a risk factor of HCC.
