Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of CEA, CA19-9, CA72-4, AFP, and CA125 in gastric stromal tumors. Methods 41 patients with gastric stromal tumors and 11 patients with gastric leiomyoma were recruited in this study from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University during May 2014 to December 2017. The tissue was collected by surgery, and HE staining was done. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of CD34, CD117, and DOG-1. Serum of all cases and 41 healthy volunteers in the same hospital were collected. The levels of CEA, CA19-9, CA72-4, AFP and CA125 were examined by electrochemiluminescence assay, and the differences in each group were compared by M-W test or K-W test. Then the relationship between those biomarkers and the clinical parameters of gastric stromal tumors was analyzed. Moreover, AUC (Area Under the curve), cut-off value, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value with drawing ROC curve (receiver operating characteristic curve) were also calculated. Results Spindle cells or epithelioid cells were observed in the tissue of gastric stromal tumors. The expression of CD34, CD117, DOG-1 were positive. The level of the serum CEA 1.53 (1.15, 2.22) ng/ml in patients with gastric stromal tumor patients was higher than that in healthy controls 1.06 (0.62, 1.48) ng/ml and that in patients with gastric leiomyoma 0.79 (0.39, 1.39) ng/ml (the U value was 446.5, and 113.0 respectively, P<0.05). The level of CA19-9 in gastric stromal tumors 9.30 (4.95, 12.70) U/ml was higher than that in healthy controls 6.62 (4.56, 8.82) U/ml (the U value was 615.5, P<0.05). There were no significant differences in AFP, CA125, and CA72-4 of three groups (the H value was 4.348, 1.073, and 3.897, P>0.05). Furthermore, the level of CEA was closely related to TNM stage (the U value was 129.0, P<0.05). The diagnostic value of CEA and CA19-9 was statistically not significant (P>0.05). However, the combination of two markers might increase diagnostic efficiency. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and AUC was 92.7％, 48.8％, 64.4％, 87.0％ and 0.752 respectively. Conclusion The combination of CEA and CA19-9 has better sensitivity and negative predictive value in auxiliary diagnosis of gastric stromal tumors.
