The patients were randomized to control (etomidate), S (sufentanil + etomidate), F (fentanyl + etomidate), and D (dezocine + etimidate). IoC was measured before anesthesia (T1), opioids (T2), etomidate (T3), the start of endoscopy (T4), drug withdrawal (T5), OAA/S > 2 (T6), and OAA/S > 4) (T7). The primary outcome was the observation of IoC at T6 and T7. The adverse reaction and recovery time were secondary outcomes.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>With 20 patients in each group, there were no differences in the operation and awakening times among the four groups (P > 0.05). Compared with group C, the IoC values of groups S and F at T5, T6, and T7 were increased after drug administration (P < 0.05), with intragroup differences (P < 0.001). Compared with group C, the IoC values of groups S, F, and D were higher at T6 and T7 (P<sub>S-T6</sub> = 0.003, P<sub>F-T6</sub> = 0.013, P<sub>D-T6</sub> = 0.015; P<sub>S-T7</sub> = 0.015, P<sub>F-T7</sub> = 0.040, P<sub>D-T7</sub> = 0.028). There were differences in nausea and vomiting between groups D and C (P<sub>D-C</sub> = 0.044) and myoclonus (P<sub>S</sub>–<sub>C</sub><img>P<sub>F-C</sub><0.001, and P<sub>D-C</sub><0.001).

Effective antiviral therapy can control liver inflammation, reduce the occurrence of HCC and reduce the recurrence of HCC after surgery treatment. In addition, during chemotherapy such as transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) or hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC), targeted therapy and immunotherapy for HCC, antiviral therapy is also needed to prevent hepatitis virus reactivation.
