Abstract:
Objective:The present study was designed to evaluate the clinical significance of serum GP73 in patients with alcohol liver disease.
Methods:Thirty-two patients with alcoholic liver disease (ALD), 40 patients with non-alcohol fatty liver disease(NFLAD), and 40 apparently healthy individuals were included in this study.
Results:Compared with Those of healthy control population(43.91±19.02 ng/ml), the serum GP73 levels in ALD patients(93.39±66.91 ng/ml) were significantly increased, and also markedly higher than those of NFLAD patients (55.38±21.00 ng/ml). Taken the NFALD as"healthy controls" population, and ALD population as"patients" , the GP73 may be used to differentiate the ALD from NFLAD. The area of ROC analysis was 0.66(95%CI: 0.52~0.80, P=0.02). We set 75.65 ng/ml as the cut-off value for ALD diagnosis, the sensitivity and specificity were 50.0% and 85.0% respectively.
Conclusion:Serum GP73 levels in ALD patients were significantly higher than those of NFALD patients. GP73 may be a new marker for differentiating ALD from NFALD.
