Abstract:
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of serum sex hormone binding globulin(SHBG),in-sulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)and bone age index(BAI)in girls with precocious puberty(PP).Methods A total of 220 girls with PP who were treated in this hospital from January 2022 to August 2024 were selected as the research subjects.The research subjects were divided into 104 children with central preco-cious puberty(CPP,CPP group)and 116 children with simple premature thelarche(SPT,SPT group)accord-ing to the type of the patients' disease.Another 110 girls with normal physical examination and development during the same period were selected as the control group.The levels of serum SHBG and IGF-1 in each group were determined and BAI was calculated.The diagnostic efficacy of the combined detection of serum SHBG,IGF-1 and BAI for CPP was analyzed through the receiver operating characteristic curve,and the correlation between serum SHBG,IGF-1,BAI and sex hormone indicators in girls with PP was analyzed by Pearson corre-lation analysis.Results The levels of height,basal follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),basal luteinizing hor-mone(LH),and estradiol(E2)in the CPP group and the SPT group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The serum SHBG levels in the CPP group and the SPT group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The serum IGF-1 and BAI in the CPP group and the SPT group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of the three combined diagnoses of PP in girls was 0.941,which was significantly larger than those of IGF-1 and BAI(Z=8.140,9.470,both P<0.05).The AUC of the three combined diagnoses of CPP in girls was 0.958,which was significantly higher than those of the single tests of serum SHBG,IGF-1,and BAI(Z=2.821,7.363,6.412,all P<0.05).The levels of serum SHBG in PP of girls were negatively correlated with those of IGF-1,BAI,basal FSH,basal LH and E2(P<0.05).Serum IGF-1 was positively correlated with BAI,basal FSH and basal LH(P<0.05),but not correlated with E2(P>0.05).BAI was positively correla-ted with the levels of basal FSH,basal LH and E2(P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of serum SHBG and IGF-1 with BAI has certain diagnostic value for PP in girls,especially for the diagnosis of CPP,which is significantly superior to a single test.
