The 129 patients include 68 cases of gastric cancer. The results showed that the serum levels of PGⅠ and PGⅠ/PGⅡ ratio in gastric cancer patients were obviously lower than those in healthy controls, while comparing with controls, the serum GAS levels were significantly higher. The diagnostic accuracy of the determinations for gastric cancer was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. The area under the curve (AUC) levels of serum PGⅠ, PGⅠ/PGⅡ ratio and GAS were 0.833, 0.842 and 0.851, respec-tively. As serum PGⅠ or PGⅠ/PGⅡ ratio or GAS were combined, the sensitivity and specificity of determination for gastric cancer diagnosis were 94.2% and 73.4%, respectively. All these results indicated that the combined deter-mination of serum PGⅠ, PGⅡ and GAS levels may be used as a tool for primary screening of gastric cancer.展开更多
