Clinical Medicine of China 2021;37(1):79-84
Objective:To compare the difference of human epididymis protein 4(HE4) and carbohydrate antigen 125(CA125) indexes before and after menopause in ovarian cancer patients, and to evaluate the efficacy of risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm(ROMA) index in early diagnosis.Methods:The clinical data of 236 patients with ovarian cancer (malignant ovarian tumor group) who were hospitalized in Cancer Hospital of China Medical University from April 2018 to September 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, and 312 benign patients treated at the same period were selected as the control group (benign ovarian tumor group). On the basis of clinical pathological section confirmation, the serum samples were collected to detect HE4 and CA125, and the ROMA index was calculated according to the formula.The differences of HE4, CA125 and ROMA indexes before and after menopause, as well as the diagnostic efficacy of ROC survival curve of the three were compared, and the relationship between the different clinical characteristics of ovocarcinoma patients was evaluated to comprehensively analyze the early diagnostic effect of ROMA index.Results:In the serum of patients with malignant ovarian cancer, HE4, CA125 and ROMA index were abnormally high expression, and the difference between HE4 before(263.2(128.4, 385.6) pmol/L) and after menopause(354.8(179.5, 554.2) pmol/L) was statistically significant( Z=2.09, P=0.037). Through fitting the ROC curve: the AUC of premenopausal ROMA index was 0.939, and the AUC of postmenopausal ROMA index was 0.933, which were higher than HE4 (0.937, 0.906) and CA125 (0.913, 0.924), and their corresponding Youden correct diagnostic indexes were 0.800 and 0.742 respectively, which were higher than HE4 (0.788, 0.653) and CA125 (0.498, 0.565). The two categories of HE4 were associated with the occurrence of peritoneal effusion (the percentage of postmenopausal and premenopausal HE4<140 nmol/L and premenopausal HE4<70 nmol/L were 25.77%, 74.23% and 74.23% respectively), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=10.155, P=0.006). CA125 was associated with the classification of the largest diameter of parenchymal tumor and the occurrence of peritoneal effusion (all P<0.05). ROMA index was associated with menopause or not, classification of maximum diameter of mass, classification of maximum diameter of parenchymal tumor and occurrence of ascites, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusion:ROMA index has a good diagnostic efficiency in the diagnosis of malignant ovarian cancer, especially premenopausal patients with good diagnostic efficiency, for early diagnosis of ovarian cancer has a certain guiding value, the follow-up will further carry out confirmatory research.

Objective:To observe the impact of rehabilitation training,acupuncture-moxibustion combined with Danshen Chuanxiongqin acupoint injection on the patients with shoulder-hand syndrome (SHS) after cerebral infarction (CI).Methods:82 patients with SHS after CI from March 2014 to March 2016 in our hospital were randomly divided into the group A and the group B (n=41).Patients in the group A received comprehensive drug therapy,acupuncture and rehabilitation training,the group B was given Danshen Chuanxiongqin acupoint injection therapy based on the group A.Before and after treatment,the upper limb movement function score (FMA),digital pain score (NRS),the degree of swelling in the shoulder joint,shoulder joint of motion (ROM),and neural function defect scale (CNFDS),daily life activities ability (MBI) and quality of life scores (WHOQOL) of patients in two groups were compared and analyzed.Results:After treatment,the scores of NRS,shoulder swelling,upper extremity CNFDS were significantly higher than those before treatment,the ROM,while the upper extremity FMA,MBI and WHOQOL of both groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05),these index improved more significantly in group A than those of group B (P<0.05).Conclusion:Rehabilitation training,acupuncture-moxibustion combined with Danshen Chuanxiongqin acupoint injection was more effective in the treatment of SHS after cerebral infarction than rehabilitation training and acupuncture-moxibustion.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the value of HE4,CA125 and ovarian malignant tumor risk prediction models(ROMA)in the diagnosis of ovarian epithelial malignant tumors.METHODS: The clinical and pathological data of 247 patients with ovarian tumors(EOC 139 cases,BOT 18 cases,and benign ovarian tumor 90 cases)and 39 patients with uterine fibroids in Liaoning Tumor Hospital from September 2016 to August 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The levels of serum CA125 and HE4 were measured before operation. The ROMA values were calculated and the relationship between CA125,HE4,ROMA values and clinical pathological parameters were analyzed. The diagnostic evaluation index was calculated,the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn,and the AUC value was also calculated.RESULTS: The positive rate of HE4 in the ovarian epithelial malignant tumor group was significantly higher than that in other groups before and after menopause,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).The positive rate of CA125 in the group of malignant epithelial tumor of ovary was significantly higher than that in other groups after menopause,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05),but there was no statistical difference before menopause(P>0.05).There was no significant statistical difference in the positive rate of ROMA before or after menopause(P>0.05).The sensitivity of CA125 was higher than that of HE4 and ROMA. Specificity of HE4 was higher than that of CA125 and ROMA.Correct diagnosis index of ROMA was higher than that of HE4 and CA125.CONCLUSION: For the diagnosis of ovarian malignant epithelial tumors,the combined detection of serum HE4 and CA125 and ROMA model is superior to the individual detection of HE4 and CA125.
