ABSTRACT

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major global health burden characterized by late-stage diagnosis and high postoperative recurrence rates. This review presents a surgery-centered precision management framework integrating 3 synergistic components: early detection, precision surgery, and recurrence prevention. Early detection strategies incorporate multiparameter risk models including the gender, age, AFP-L3, AFP, and DCP (GALAD) as well as age, sex, AFP, and PIVKA-II (ASAP) scores, alongside circulating tumor DNA methylation-based liquid biopsy, thus enabling tumor identification at stages amenable to curative resection. Precision surgery optimizes patient selection through refined staging systems including the Chinese liver cancer staging (CNLC), and functional assessments including the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade, whereas conversion therapy and minimally invasive approaches extend surgical eligibility to selected patients with intermediate-stage disease. To mitigate the risk of postoperative recurrence, distinguishing between early and late recurrence patterns and monitoring minimal residual disease are critical strategies. Perioperative systemic therapies, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitor-based combinations, show promise for eradicating micrometastatic disease. This integrated framework provides a cohesive, evidence-based approach to personalized HCC management aimed at maximizing curative potential and long-term survival.

arXiv:2510.18560v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The paradigm of LLM-as-a-judge is emerging as a scalable and efficient alternative to human evaluation, demonstrating strong performance on well-defined tasks. However, its reliability in open-ended tasks with dynamic environments and complex interactions remains unexplored. To bridge the gap, we introduce WebDevJudge, a systematic benchmark for assessing LLM-as-a-judge performance in web development, with support for both non-interactive evaluation based on static observations and continuous interactive evaluation with a dynamic web environment. WebDevJudge comprises human preference labels over paired web implementations, annotated with structured and query-grounded rubrics to ensure high-quality ground truth. Using this benchmark, we comprehensively evaluate various evaluators, including LLMs, MLLMs, and agentic workflows. We systematically investigate the impact of different paradigms and guidance mechanisms. Our experiments reveal a significant gap between LLM judges and human experts. In-depth analysis indicates this gap stems from fundamental model limitations, including failures in recognizing functional equivalence, verifying task feasibility, and mitigating bias. Overall, WebDevJudge presents a challenge to LLM-as-a-judge, offering insights to guide future research toward developing more reliable and capable automated evaluators for complicated scenarios.
