- Abstract: Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum bromodomain-containing pro-tein 4(BRD4)combined with gastrin-17(G-17)in Helicobacter pylori(Hp)-positive early gastric cancer.Methods A total of 88 patients with Hp-positive early gastric cancer admitted to our hospital from September 2021 to September 2023 were selected as early gastric cancer group.Meanwhile,92 patients with Hp-positive precancerous lesions and 80 patients with Hp-positive gastritis admitted dur-ing the same period were selected as precancerous lesion group and gastritis group,respectively.En-zyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the serum levels of BRD4 and G-17.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to screen the influencing factors of Hp-positive early gastric cancer.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum BRD4 and G-17 in Hp-positive early gastric cancer.Results Compared with the gastritis group,the levels of BRD4 and G-17 in the precancerous lesion group and early gastric cancer group were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Furthermore,compared with the precancerous le-sion group,the levels of BRD4 and G-17 in the early gastric cancer group were also significantly elevated(P＜0.05).The proportion of patients with a family history of gastric cancer,those who preferred hot food,cold food,or high-salt food,as well as the levels of PG Ⅱ,BRD4,and G-17 were signifi-cantly higher in the early gastric cancer group than in the non-gastric cancer group,while the level of pepsinogen(PG)Ⅰ was significantly lower(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis revealed that preference for hot food,high-salt food,PG Ⅱ,BRD4,G-17,and PG Ⅰ were all influencing factors for Hp-positive early gastric cancer(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)values for serum BRD4,G-17,and their combination in diagnosing Hp-positive early gastric cancer were 0.793,0.830,and 0.912,respectively.The diagnostic efficacy of the combined detection was superior to that of single detection(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of BRD4 and G-17 are elevated in patients with Hp-positive early gastric cancer,and both exhibit certain diagnostic value for Hp-positive early gastric cancer,suggesting their potential as serum biomarkers for the diagnosis of Hp-positive early gastric cancer.
