ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the serum levels of PGⅠ,PGⅡ,TK1,TSGF and CEA,CA724 in gastric cancer and eval-uate the application value of combined detection the above tumor markers in diagnosis of gastric cancer.Methods The serum levels of TSGF were measured in 94 patients with gastric cancer and 85 healthy control by rate method.PGⅠ,PGⅡ,TK1 and CEA,CA724 were detected by electrochemiluminescence method.Results PGⅠand PGⅠ/PGⅡwere lower than healthy control in serum of patients with gastric cancer (both P0.05),and other tumor markers were all higher than healthy control (all P<0.05).The sensitivity of PGⅠ,PGⅠ/PGⅡ were better than TK1,CEA and CA724 (all P<0.05),the specificity of PGⅠ/PGⅡ,CEA were better than TSGF (both P<0.05),the accuracy of PGⅠ,PGⅠ/PGⅡ were better than CA724 and TSGF alone (all P<0.05).When combined TSGF,TK1 and PGⅠ/PGⅡ,PGⅠ,the sensitivity was better than combined PGⅠ/PGⅡand PGⅠ alone (P<0.05).Then when added CEA, CA724,this sensitivity improved up to 82.98%.Although the combined detection would show a lower specificity,it still keep high to 84.71%.Combined detection improved the accuracy in diagnosis of gastric cancer,up to 83.80%.In this re-search,There was no difference in sensitivity,specificity and accuracy between the group of PGⅠ+PGⅠ/PGⅡ+TSGF+TK1+CEA and the group of PGⅠ+PGⅠ/PGⅡ+TSGF+TK1+CEA+CA724.Conclusion Compared with CEA and CA724 popular used in clinic,PGⅠ/PGⅡand PGⅠshowed a better application value.The group of PGⅠ+PGⅠ/PGⅡ+TSGF+TK1+CEA showed the best sensitivity.Combined detection of serum levels of PGⅠ,PGⅠ/PGⅡ,TSGF,TK1 ,CEA can significantly raise the sensitivity and accuracy in diagnosis of gastric cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the serum levels of tumor markers CEA,CA724,PGⅠ,PGⅡ,PGI/PGII and SF in gas-tric cancer.Methods The serum levels of CEA,CA724,PGⅠ,PGⅡ,PGI/PGII and SF were detected in 46 healthy con-trols,45 atrophic gastritis patients and 39 gastric cancer patients.Serum levels of CEA,CA724 were measured by ELC meth-od,PGⅠ,PGⅡ by time resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA)and SF by immunoturbidimetry(ITM).Results ①Compared to the healthy controls,the statistical contrast of serum levels of CEA,CA724,PGⅠ,PGⅡ and PGI/PGII except SF was significant in gastric cancer patients(P<0.05),only PGⅠ,PGⅡ,SF had significant difference in atrophic gastritis patients (P<0.05).Compared to atrophic gastritis patients,the serum levels of CEA,CA724 were significantly higher,but PGⅠwas lower in gastric cancer patients(P<0.05).②When CEA,CA724,PGⅠ,PGⅡ,PGI/PGII and SF were used to di-agnose gastric cancer individually,the sequence of the area under ROC curve was CEA,SF,CA724,PGI/PGII,PGⅡ and PGⅠ.Only the areas of PGⅠ,PGⅡunder ROC curve had significant statistical difference (P<0.05).③The sensitivity,speci-ficity,PPV and NPV were different when these indexes were used to diagnize gastric cancer individually or incorporatedly. Conclusion The serum levels of tumor markers CEA,CA724,PGⅠ,PGⅡ,PGI/PGII and SF had important reference value for the diagnosis of gastric cancer although the diagnostic value was different individually or incorporatedly;the content of serum PG and the ratio of PGI/PGII were closely related to the gastric mucosa.
