Abstract:
Fecal samples were collected from 81 patients with digestive tract bleeding (including 32 cases of upper digestive tract bleeding, 6 gastric cancer, 34 lower digestive tract ulcer and 9 colorectal cancer) and 40 healthy subjects. Fecal occult blood was detected with hemoglobin and/or transferrin monoclonal immunoassay. The positive rate with hemoglobin immunoassay for upper digestive tract bleeding, gastric cancer, lower digestive tract ulcer and colorectal cancer was 46.9%, 66.7%, 32.3% and 77.8% respectively;the positive rate with transferrin imrnunoassay was 71.9%, 83.3%, 47.1% and 88.9% respectively. When two methods were combined, the positive rate increased to 87.5%, 100%, 55.9% and 100% respectively showing a higher sensitivity.
