Value of GFAP and MBP in diagnosing early brain contusion and laceration / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of the combined detection of serum glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)and myelin basic protein (MBP)in the patients with early brain contusion and laceration.Methods ELISA was adopted to detect serum GFAP and MBP.The one-way ANOVA analysis was adopted to conduct the comparison among groups and the q test was adopted to conduct the pairwise comparison for analyzing the differences between the brain contusion and laceration patients with the healthy population.Results The serum GFAP and MBP levels had statistically significant differences among the mild craniocerebral injury group,severe craniocerebral injury group and the healthy control (P <0.05);which had statistically signifi-cant differences between the control group and the mild craniocerebral injury group(P <0.05);which had statistically significant differences between the mild craniocerebral injury group and the severe craniocerebral group (P <0.05 );which had statistically significant differences between the control group and the severe craniocerebral injury group (P <0.05).The serum GFAP and MBP levels in the early stage of brain contusion and laceration were significantly higher than those in the control group,moreover,the more severe the injury,the more obvious the increase of serum GFAP and MBP.Conclusion The combined detection of serum GFAP and MBP can be regarded as the auxiliary indexes for the early diagnosis of early brain contusion and laceration and the eval-uation of the injury degree.
