ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),adiponectin combined with leptin in colorectal cancer.Methods The case control study was adopted.Forty cases newly diagnosed as colorectal cancer were selected.Forty cases of non-colorectal cancer were selected according to 1 ∶ 1 matching proportion.Serum levels of CEA,adiponectin and leptin were measured in the study subjects.The ROC curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of adiponectin combined with leptin for colorectal cancer.Results Serum level of adiponectin in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group,while the CEA and leptin levels were higher than those in the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The area under the curve of adiponectin combined with leptin reached 0.714±-0.058,its specificity and sensitivity were 77.5 ％ and 65.7 ％ respectively.The area under the curve of adiponectin,leptin combined with CEA reached 0.818 ±-0.048,its specificity and sensitivity were 82.5 ％ and 89.5 ％ respectively.The cut-off values of leptin and adiponectin were 11.53 μg/mL and 9.08μg/mL respectively.Conclusion The combined screening of CEA,adiponectin and leptin can significantly improve the detection rate of colorectal cancer.
