Abstract:
Objective To establish the reference intervals of serum pepsinogen(PG)in healthy adults in Changsha area,and to explore their distribution as well as related factors.Methods Serum PGⅠand PGⅡ levels were determined by a latex-enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay method in 1 279 subjects from Changsha area.Then PGⅠ/PGⅡ was calculated.Results The PGⅠ, PGⅡ and PGⅠ/PGⅡ levels of 1 279 healthy adult residents showed a skew distribution.The levels of serum PGⅠand PGⅠ/PGⅡ in males were 62.0 ng/mL and 4.3,which in females were 59.4 ng/mL and 4.1,significantly lower than those in males(P<0.05).Age was significantly positive correlated with serum concentrations of PGⅡ(r= 0.278,P<0.01),and was negative correla-ted with PGⅠ/PGⅡratio(r= -0.173,P<0.01).The normal reference ranges of serum PGⅠ,PGⅡ and PGⅠ/PGⅡ in males were≥56.8 ng/mL,≤22.6 ng/mL,and ≥3.3,respectively,and in females were ≥51.4 ng/mL,≤23.1 ng/mL,and ≥3.0,respec-tively.Conclusion The serum PG levels of healthy adult residents significantly show skew distributions in Changsha area,which are affected by gender and age.The establishment of reference intervals of PG contributes to clinical screening and diagnosis of gas-tric-related deseases.
