Major finding: Despite having multiple indicators of worse liver disease, only 9.5% of zinc recipients developed hepatocellular carcinoma over 3 years, compared with 25% of patients in the control group (P = .005). Data source: A retrospective cohort study of 267 patients with chronic liver disease but no hepatocellular carcinoma at baseline.
