Comprehensive analysis of the survival data. The correlation between combined OATP1B3 expression plus TNM stage and the OS (a) and DFS (b) of HCC patients. a, low OATP1B3 expression with TNM stages I/II; b, high OATP1B3 expression with TNM stages I/II; c, low OATP1B3 expression with TNM stages III/IV; d, high OATP1B3 expression with TNM stages III/IV. The correlation between combined OATP1B3 expression plus vascular invasion and the OS (c) and DFS (d) of HCC patients. a, low OATP1B3 expression with no invasion; b, high OATP1B3 expression with no invasion; c, low OATP1B3 expression with invasion; d, high OATP1B3 expression with invasion. The correlation between combined OATP1B3 expression plus serum AFP and the OS (e) and DFS (f) of HCC patients. a: low OATP1B3 expression with low serum AFP level; b: high OATP1B3 expression with low serum AFP level; c: low OATP1B3 expression with high serum AFP level; d: high OATP1B3 expression with high serum AFP level
