Analysis of correlation between erythrocyte sedimentation rate and tumor size/stage in renal cell carcinoma patients / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

100 mm/h, group D).The tumor size/stage of the 4 ESR groups were analyzed by means of SPSS10.0. Results There were 89 cases with normal ESR,18 cases in group A,49 cases in group B,14 cases in group C and 3 cases in group D.For the correlation of ESR and tumor size,the analysis resulted in ?2 =13.621,P=0.003;Spearman correlation analysis results werecorrelation coefficient of 0.341,P=0.002.For the correlation of ESR and tumor stage, the analysis resulted in ?2 =5.959 and P=0.114;Spearman correlation analysis results werecorrelation coefficient of 0.208,P=0.057. Conclusions These results suggest that ESR is positively correlated with the size of renal cell carcinoma;however,there is no association between ESR and tumor stages.
