Brief Summary
This prospective cohort study is designed to explore the role of environmental, clinical, and genetic risk factors in the progression and prognosis of primary liver cancer (PLC). We will recruit 5000 patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated PLC. The eligible patients will be asked to complete a baseline survey at the time of initial admission and be followed up every 3 to 6 months after discharge.
