However, its diagnostic capability varies across HCC studies. This study aimed to compare the performance of PIVKA-Ⅱ with alpha-fetoprotein(AFP) in the diagnosis of HCC. Data sources: A systematic literature search was conducted to identify the studies from MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library Databases, which were published up to December 20, 2017 to compare the diagnostic capability of PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP for HCC. The data were pooled using random effects model. Pooled sensitivity and specificity were calculated. Summary receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC) was employed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of each marker. Results: Thirty-one studies were included. The pooled sensitivity(95% CI) of PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP was 0.66(0.65–0.68) and 0.66(0.65–0.67), respectively in diagnosis of HCC; and the corresponding pooled specificity(95% CI) was 0.89(0.88–0.90) and 0.84(0.83–0.85), respectively. The area under the ROC curve(AUC) of PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP was 0.856(0.817–0.895) and 0.770(0.728–0.811), respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that PIVKA-Ⅱ was superior to AFP in terms of the AUC for both small HCC( < 3 cm) [0.863(0.825–0.901) vs 0.717(0.658–0.776)] and large HCC( ≥ 3 cm) [0.854(0.811–0.897) vs 0.729(0.682–0.776)]; for American [0.926(0.897–0.955) vs 0.698(0.594–0.662)], European [0.772(0.743–0.801) vs 0.628(0.594–0.662)], Asian [0.838(0.812–0.864) vs 0.785(0.764–0.806)] and African [0.812(0.794–0.840) vs 0.721(0.675–0.767)] HCC patients; and for HBV-related [0.909(0.866–0.951) vs 0.714(0.673–0.755)] and mixed-etiology [0.847(0.821–0.873) vs 0.794(0.772–0.816)] HCC. Conclusion: This meta-analysis indicates that PIVKA-Ⅱ is better than AFP in terms of the accuracy for diagnosing HCC, regardless of tumor size, patient ethnic group, or HCC etiology.展开更多

目的:探讨血清生物标志物甲胎蛋白(AFP)、维生素K缺失或拮抗剂Ⅱ诱导的蛋白质(PIVKA-Ⅱ)和磷脂酰肌醇蛋白聚糖3(GPC-3)单独或联合用于肝细胞癌(以下简称肝癌)诊断的价值。方法:检索PubMed、Web of Science、Embase三个数据库,收集2002...目的:探讨血清生物标志物甲胎蛋白(AFP)、维生素K缺失或拮抗剂Ⅱ诱导的蛋白质(PIVKA-Ⅱ)和磷脂酰肌醇蛋白聚糖3(GPC-3)单独或联合用于肝细胞癌(以下简称肝癌)诊断的价值。方法:检索PubMed、Web of Science、Embase三个数据库,收集2002年以来发表的AFP、PIVKA-Ⅱ和GPC-3单独或联合用于诊断肝癌的文献。根据纳入和排除标准筛选文献并提取相关数据。利用诊断准确性研究的质量评价(QUADAS)检查表对纳入的文献进行质量评价,并采用Meta DiSc软件、Review Manager 5.4软件和Stata 15.1软件对AFP、PIVKA-Ⅱ和GPC-3单用和联合使用诊断肝癌的受试者工作特征曲线下面积(AUC)、敏感度、特异度等指标进行数据分析。结果:共纳入32篇文献。Meta分析结果显示,单个标志物用于诊断肝癌时,PIVKA-Ⅱ的AUC值最高,为0.88(95%CI:0.85~0.91),其次是GPC-3和AFP;多个标志物联合用于诊断肝癌的AUC均高于单个标志物,其中PIVKA-Ⅱ联合GPC-3诊断的AUC值最高,为0.90(95%CI:0.87~0.92)。单个标志物用于诊断肝癌时,PIVKA-Ⅱ和GPC-3的敏感度相对较高(分别为0.75和0.76),但GPC-3的特异度不如PIVKA-Ⅱ和AFP(AFP、PIVKA-Ⅱ和GPC-3分别为0.87、0.88和0.81);多个标志物联合用于诊断肝癌的敏感度较单个标志物诊断时有所提高,但特异度无明显提高。单个标志物用于诊断肝癌时,PIVKA-Ⅱ的诊断比值比(DOR)最高,为22(95%CI:13~36),其次是GPC-3和AFP;两个标志物联合用于诊断肝癌的DOR均高于单个标志物,其中AFP联合GPC-3诊断的DOR最高,为25(95%CI:9~67);三个标志物联合用于诊断肝癌时的DOR明显降低,为10(95%CI:7~45)。结论:单个标志物用于肝癌诊断时,PIVKA-Ⅱ的诊断价值更高。两种标志物联合能显著提高肝癌诊断的敏感度,三种标志物联合未能进一步提高诊断价值。结合临床实际,推荐AFP联合PIVKA-Ⅱ用于肝癌的诊断。展开更多
为探究血清PIVKA-Ⅱ与AFP检测在原发性肝细胞癌诊断中的优劣性,对237例患者的血清PIVKA-Ⅱ与AFP进行检测,其中乙肝病毒相关性原发性肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC)患者115例、乙肝携带者(asymptomatic carrier, As C) 55例、...为探究血清PIVKA-Ⅱ与AFP检测在原发性肝细胞癌诊断中的优劣性,对237例患者的血清PIVKA-Ⅱ与AFP进行检测,其中乙肝病毒相关性原发性肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC)患者115例、乙肝携带者(asymptomatic carrier, As C) 55例、乙肝病毒相关肝硬化(liver cirrhosis, LC)患者47例、非肝癌肿瘤患者20例。检测结果显示:肝癌组PIVKA-Ⅱ的中位表达量高于非肝癌组(包括As C组、LC组、非肝癌肿瘤组), P均小于0.05;使用AFP、PIVKA-Ⅱ和AFP+PIVKA-Ⅱ诊断肝癌的灵敏度分别为67.8%、81.7%和90.4%,对应的ROC曲线下面积为0.881、0.945和0.962, PIVKA-Ⅱ检测肝癌的cut-off值为32 m AU/m L。已有研究报道以40 m AU/m L为PIVKA-Ⅱ的cut-off值,本研究根据PIVKA-Ⅱ是否≥40 m AU/m L将HCC组分为PIVKA-Ⅱ≥40组、PIVKA-Ⅱ<40组,对两组患者的性别、年龄、病毒载量、肿瘤分期、癌结节数目、肿块直径和是否抗病毒治疗进行比较,采用logistic回归分析两组患者的差异性指标,结果显示病毒载量[OR=1.150, 95%CI (1.022, 1.295), P=0.02]为PIVKA-Ⅱ检测肝癌的独立影响因素。相关分析表明PIVKA-Ⅱ与肝癌肿块直径呈正相关。此外, AFP、PIVKA-Ⅱ的cut-off值分组结果表明, PIVKA-Ⅱ≥32且AFP<20组的肝癌肿块直径大于PIVKA-Ⅱ<32且AFP≥20组(P=0.035)。因此, PIVKA-Ⅱ是优于AFP筛查肝细胞癌的血清学肿瘤标志物,其表达量与肿瘤肿块直径呈正相关。展开更多
