Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum gastrin, C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and the degree of peptic ulcer bleeding.Methods:The clinical data of 90 peptic ulcer bleeding patients (test group) from April 2019 to September 2020 in Hangzhou Hospital of Zhejiang Medical and Health Group were retrospectively analyzed, including 15 cases with low-risk, 40 cases with intermediate-risk and 35 cases with high-risk of Blatchford score; 40 physical examination volunteers were selected as the control group during the same period. The serum levels of CRP and TNF-α were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the serum level of gastrin was measured by radioimmunoassay. The correlation between CRP, TNF-α, gastrin and the Blatchford score was analyzed by Pearson method; the independent risk factors affecting high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression; the value of CRP, TNF-α and gastrin in predicting high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The CRP, TNF-α and gastrin in test group were significantly higher than those in control group: (19.69 ± 3.41) mg/L vs. (2.28 ± 0.64) mg/L, (26.63 ± 4.24) ng/L vs. (1.35 ± 0.31) ng/L and (149.77 ± 21.41) μg/L vs. (72.65 ± 12.39) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The hemoglobin and platelets in intermediate-risk and high-risk patients were significantly lower than those in low-risk patients: (59.21 ± 4.63) and (28.94 ± 4.69) g/L vs. (89.68 ± 5.12) g/L, (162.14 ± 12.47) and (122.05 ± 10.39) × 10 9/L vs. (213.58 ± 16.98) × 10 9/L, the indexes in high-risk patients were significantly lower than those in intermediate-risk patients, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); the prothrombin time, CRP, TNF-α and gastrin in intermediate-risk and high-risk patients were significantly higher than those in low-risk patients: (13.98 ± 1.29) and (16.97 ± 1.15) s vs. (11.00 ± 2.07) s, (18.87 ± 4.68) and (22.69 ± 2.96) mg/L vs. (15.45 ± 5.54) mg/L, (27.43 ± 5.05) and (31.02 ± 4.56) ng/L vs. (21.39 ± 8.54) ng/L, (140.89 ± 22.36) and (160.58 ± 25.52) μg/L vs. (121.39 ± 15.17) μg/L, the indexes in high-risk patients were significantly higher than those in intermediate-risk patients, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that hemoglobin, platelets, CRP, TNF-α and gastrin were independent risk factors for high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding ( OR = 0.224, 0.321, 3.687, 3.058 and 4.051; 95% CI 0.004 to 0.894, 0.121 to 8.547, 1.912 to 5.525, 3.012 to 10.609 and 2.012 to 7.525; P<0.05 or <0.01). Pearson correlation analysis result showed that CRP, TNF-α and gastrin were positive correlation with the Blatchford score ( r = 0.501, 0.526 and 0.542; P<0.01). ROC curve analysis result showed that the areas under the curve of CRP, TNF-α and gastrin for predicting high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding was 0.890, 0.825 and 0.901, with optimal cut-off values of 17.95 mg/L, 22.16 ng/L and 135.36 μg/L, sensitivity of 97.14%, 94.29% and 82.86%, and specificity of 80.00%, 66.67% and 86.67%. Conclusions:CRP, TNF-α and gastrin are correlated to the degree of peptic ulcer bleeding, and can be used as indexes to evaluate the bleeding degree of peptic ulcer.
