摘要
目的 探讨血浆神经胶质细胞原纤维酸性蛋白（GFAP）及同型半胱氨酸（Hcy）水平对肝豆状核变性（又称肝豆状核变性，WD）的诊断及肝脑型鉴别诊断价值。方法 招募安徽中医药大学第一附属医院脑病中心2023年1月—2025年1月收治的WD患者共120例，其中WD脑型63例，WD肝型57例，以及同期在体检中心筛查的30名健康志愿者。采用ELISA法测定纳入对象血浆GFAP、Hcy水平，进行组间差异性比较和ROC曲线分析。并运用Spearman相关分析探讨血浆GFAP、Hcy水平与统一肝豆状核变性评定量表评分（UWDRS）、24 h尿铜及血清铜蓝蛋白（CER）水平的相关性。结果 WD肝型及脑型患者的血浆GFAP水平均显著高于对照组（P<0.05），且WD脑型较WD肝型升高更为显著（P<0.05）。血浆Hcy水平也在WD肝型及脑型患者中明显升高（P<0.05），但在WD肝型、脑型间未表现出显著差异。血浆GFAP诊断WD脑型的曲线下面积（AUC）为0.861，截断值为135.71 pg/ml，敏感度68.3％，特异度82.3％；该指标诊断WD肝型的AUC为0.695，截断值为129.84 pg/ml，敏感度64.7％，特异度83.3％；其在WD肝型及脑型鉴别诊断中的AUC为0.75，截断值为151.12 pg/ml，敏感度73.9％，特异度87.8％。血浆Hcy诊断WD的AUC为0.788，截断值为15.59 μmol/L，敏感性77.9％，特异性66.7％。Spearman相关性分析结果显示，WD肝型及脑型患者血浆GFAP、Hcy水平与UWDRS评分及24 h尿铜水平均呈正相关（P<0.05），与CER水平无显著相关性（P>0.05）。结论 血浆GFAP、Hcy水平与WD神经及肝脏功能受损程度密切相关，且为早期诊断WD以及血浆GFAP对WD各分型的鉴别诊断提供了一定的临床价值。
Abstract
Objective To investigate the value of plasma glial fibrillary acidic protein （GFAP） and homocysteine （Hcy） in the diagnosis of hepatolenticular degeneration （also know as Wilson disease， WD） and the differential diagnosis of the hepatic and neurological forms of WD. Methods A total of 120 WD patients who were admitted to Encephalopathy Center of our hospital from January 2023 to January 2025 were enrolled， among whom there were 63 patients with neurological WD and 57 patients with hepatic WD， and 30 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examination during the same period of time were enrolled as control group. ELISA was used to measure the plasma levels of GFAP and Hcy， and the differences between groups were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic（ROC） curve analysis was performed， and the Spearman correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation of the plasma levels of GFAP and Hcy with Unified Wilson Disease Rating Scale （UWDRS） score， 24-hour urinary copper， and the serum level of ceruloplasmin （CER）. Results The patients with hepatic or neurological WD had a significantly higher plasma level of GFAP than the control group（P<0.05）， and the patients with neurological WD had a significantly greater increase than those with hepatic WD（P<0.05）. The patients with hepatic or neurological WD also had a significant increase in the plasma level of Hcy（P<0.05）， but with no significant difference between the patients with hepatic WD and those with neurological WD.Plasma GFAP had an area under the ROC curve（AUC） of 0.861 in the diagnosis of neurological WD， with a cut-off value of 135.71 pg/ml， a sensitivity of 68.3%，and a specificity of 82.3%；plasma GFAP had an AUC of 0.695 in the diagnosis of hepatic WD， with a cut-off value of 129.84 pg/ml， a sensitivity of 64.7%， and a specificity of 83.3%； in the differential diagnosis of hepatic and neurological WD， plasma GFAP had an AUC of 0.75， with a cut-off value of 151.12 pg/ml，a sensitivity of 73.9%， and a specificity of 87.8%. Plasma Hcy had an AUC of 0.788 in the diagnosis of WD， with a cut-off value of 15.59 μmol/L， sensitivity of 77.9%， and specificity of 66.7%. The Spearman correlation analysis showed that in the patients with hepatic or neurological WD， the plasma levels of GFAP and Hcy were positively correlated with UWDRS score and 24-hour urinary copper （P<0.05）， but they were not significantly correlated with the level of CER （P>0.05）. Conclusion The plasma levels of GFAP and Hcy are closely associated with the degree of neurological and hepatic impairment in WD， which provides a certain clinical value for the early diagnosis of WD and the differential diagnosis of hepatic and neurological WD.
