Serum Midkine as a Biomarker for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment Response and Prognostication
Up‐to‐date, tumor markers are considered more helpful in the evaluation of treatment response and prognostication rather than diagnosis. Identifying a valid biomarker to help clinical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a challenge, especially the alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) negative HCC. This study evaluated the efficacy of serum Midkine

Soluble B7‐H6 as a Novel Diagnostic Biomarker for Post‐Hepatitis B Cirrhosis: A Clinical Value Study
This study investigates the potential of soluble B7‐H6 (sB7‐H6) as a novel diagnostic biomarker for post‐hepatitis B cirrhosis. The infographic visually presents the following key points: (1) Liver Disease Progression: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) progresses to liver cirrhosis (LC), with serum sB7‐H6 levels increasing stepwise as the disease advances.
