Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common form of cancer worldwide. Although surgi‑ cal treatments have an acceptable cure rate, tumor recurrence is still a challenging issue. In this meta-analysis, we investigated whether statins prevent HCC recurrence following liver surgery. | Khajeh et al.

Although surgi cal treatments have an acceptable cure rate tumor recurrence is still a challenging issue. In this meta-analysis we investigated whether statins prevent HCC recurrence following liver surgery. Methods PubMed Web of Science EMBASE and Cochrane Central were searched. The Outcome of interest was the HCC recurrence after hepatic surgery. Pooled estimates were represented as hazard ratios HRs and odds ratios ORs using a random-effects model. Summary effect measures are presented together with their corresponding 95 confi dence intervals CI . The certainty of evidence was evaluated using the Grades of Research Assessment Development and Evaluation GRADE approach. Results The literature search retrieved 1362 studies excluding duplicates. Nine retrospective studies including 44 219 patients 2243 in the statin group and 41 976 in the non-statin group were included in the qualitative analysis. Patients who received statins had a lower rate of recurrence after liver surgery HR 0.53 95 CI 0.44 0.63 p Khajeh et al.
