Note: Treg proportions at 10 days and 30 days after GSMs-TACE were both compared with those before GSMs-TACE, P < 0.05.
The results of Kruskal-Wallis test showed that the AFP level in 28 HCC patients decreased to 259.88 at 10 days after GSMs-TACE (P < 0.05), and further decreased to 211.00 at 30 days after GSMs-TACE, with significant difference (p<0.05). See Table 6.
