Rapid detection of Golgi protein 73 by MAGLUMI chemiluminescent
immunoassay and the clinical value to liver fibrosis/cirrhosis patients
with chronic liver disease.
Abstract
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of MAGLUMI
chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) for detecting Golgi protein 73
(GP73) in patients with chronic liver disease. Methods: A total of 212
patients with chronic liver disease were selected as the research
subjects. METAVIR pathological staging was performed according to LSM
values, and GP73 levels were detected by CLIA. Spearman analysis was
used to analyze the correlation between GP73, LSM and METAVIR staging.
The diagnostic efficacy of GP73 was analyzed using the ROC curve based
on METAVIR staging. Results: The enrolled patients included 37 patients
in F0/F1, 80 patients in F2, 61 patients in F3, and 34 patients in F4.
There were significant differences in GP73 levels in each stage (
p<0.001 for all stages). Spearman correlation analysis
showed that GP73 levels were positively correlated with LSM and METAVIR
stages. The AUC of GP73 in diagnosing significant liver fibrosis (F≥2),
advanced liver fibrosis (F≥3), and cirrhosis (F=4) were 0.78 (95% CI:
0.72~0.84, p<0.0001), 0.83 (95% CI:
0.75~0.89, p<0.0001), 0.90 (95% CI:
0.80~0.96, p<0.0001), respectively.
Conclusion: GP73 detected by CLIA was positively correlated with liver
fibrosis stage and LSM, and had important clinical value in differential
diagnosis of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis in patients with chronic liver
disease.
