Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical value of serum ferritin (SF),erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and erythrocyte average indexes [mean corpuscular volume (MCV),mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH),mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC)] in the prognosis evaluation of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC).Methods A total of 72 SCLC patients were enrolled in the Haian People's Hospital Affiliated to Nantong University from January 2013 to October 2016 (SCLC group),and 80 health controls were selected at the same time (control group).The levels of serum SF,ESR and erythrocyte average indexes in SCLC group and control group were detected,and their relationships with clinical features,prognosis and survival time were analyzed.Results The serum levels of SF,ESR,MCV,MCH and MCHC in SCLC patients were (309 ±59) μg/L,(16 ±4) mm/h,(104 ± 12) fl,(32 ±4) pg and (307 ±21) g/L,respectively.The serum levels of SF,ESR,MCV,MCH and MCHC in control group were (186 ±26) μg/L,(15 ±5)mm/h,(85 ± 7) fl,(30 ± 3) pg and (335 ± 25) g/L,respectively.Compared with the control group,the patients in SCLC group were significantly increased on the levels of SF (t =14.168,P ＜ 0.001) and MCV (t =6.143,P ＜ 0.001),and were significantly decreased on the level of MCHC (t =-4.220,P =0.003).There were no significant difference in the levels of ESR (t =1.931,P =0.102) and MCH (t =1.220,P =0.313) between the two groups.The serum levels of SF and MCV were significantly correlated with the stage of SCLC (t =-4.092,P =0.009;t =-4.985,P ＜ 0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high serum SF (OR =5.31,95％ CI:3.09-9.31,P ＜ 0.001) and MCV (OR =1.78,95％ CI:1.10-3.08,P =0.013) were independent risk factors of SCLC.Survival analysis showed that the survival time of the patients in the high SF group was significantly shorter than that in the low SF group (6 months vs.20 months;x2 =6.556,P =0.001).Conclusion Serum ESR,MCH and MCHC levels are not significantly correlated with SCLC,but serum SF and MCV levels are of important clinical significance in evaluating the prognosis of SCLC patients.
