Abstract:
Objective To characterize the clinical features of patients with high level of carbohydrate antigen (CA)724 in order to facilitate the recognition of this clinical manifestations.Methods Eight-two cases of hospitalized patients diagnosed with gout were selected and divided into 2 groups according to the level of CA724,and the clinical features and laboratory indexes were compared between the 2 groups.T test was used in the numerical variable data between groups,x2 test was used in the categorical variable data.Correlation analysis was tested using Spearman analysis.Results The incidence of gout stones in the group with high level of CA724 was 61％,which was significantly higher than that in the group of normal CA724 of 28％.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups (x2=8.894,P＜0.05).The incidence of kidney stones in the group with high level of CA724 was 65％,which was significantly higher than that in the group of normal CA724 of 22％.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups (x2=15.013,P＜0.05).But there were no statistically significant differences in age of onset,blood uric acid,erythrocyte sedimentation rate,and serum creatinine between the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion The significantly elevated level of CA724 canappeare in gout patients,But it isnotcorrelated with tumor,which should be paid attention by clinician.It helps to avoid unnecessary checks and reduce the psychological and financial burden of patients.
