TY - JOUR AU - Guarino, Maria AU - Dufour, Jean-François PY - 2019 TI - Smoking favours hepatocellular carcinoma JF - Annals of Translational Medicine; Vol 7, Supplement 3 (July 30, 2019): Annals of Translational Medicine Y2 - 2019 KW - N2 - Chronic hepatitis B or C virus (HBV or HCV) remained the strongest risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but results of a nested case-control study in Europe showed that 47.6% of HCC was associated with smoking (1). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) showed enough evidence to classify liver cancer as a tobacco related malignancy in 2004 (2). The available knowledge on the relationship between tobacco smoking and a variety of cancers is based primarily on epidemiological evidences. UR - https://atm.amegroups.org/article/view/25686
