ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical application of detecting serum PPAR-γmRNA,MMP-9mRNA in the diagnosis of ruptured intracranial aneurysm.Methods The expression of serum PPAR-γmRNA,MMP-9mRNA were detected for 87 cases of patients with intracranial aneurysm,including ruptured group and non-ruptured group,respectively,with 57 cases and 30 cases of patients.The control group should be established to compare the changes of the above indicators.Results The expression of serum PPAR-γmRNA in the ruptured group,the non-ruptured and the controls group were 0.23±0.03,0.59±0.11 and 0.87±0.15,which of MMP-9mRNA were 0.93±0.17,0.63±0.13 and 0.25±0.05.Compared with those in the controls group,the expression of serum PPAR-γmRNA in the ruptured group significantly lowered (t=23.79,P＜0.01),which of MMP-9mRNA raised (t=25.63,P＜0.01).There were statistically significant differences.The expression of PPAR γmRNA in the ruptured group were lower than those in the unruptured group,which of MMP-9 mRNA were higher (t=15.32,16.27,P＜0.01).To establishing the receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) in evaluating the clinical significances of the two markers to use the rupture group and non-ruptured group as the dependent variable,the AUC of the expression of serum PPAR-ymRNA,MMP-9mRNA were 0.858 (95 ％ CI:0.775 ～ 0.940,P =0.000),0.842 (95 ％CI:0.756～0.929,P=0.000).As the dependent variable in the control group and unruptured group,the AUC of the expression of serum PPAR-γmRNA,MMP-9mRNA were 0.827 (95％CI:0.734～0.920,P=0.000);0.818 (95％CI:0.722 ～0.914,P=0.000).Conclusion Detection of serum PPAR-γ mRNA,MMP-9 mRNA can be applied in assessment of occurrence and progression for the intracranial aneurysm,and to provide evidences for the early detection of ruptured intracranial aneurysm.
