Abstract:
Objective To explore the application value of serum VEGF, TNF alpha, IL-1 beta, CA125 joint detection in the diagnosis of endometriosis.
Methods The patients with endometriosis treated in our hospital from May 2015 to March 2017 were selected as the research objects, and as the observation group, 80 healthy persons were selected as control group.The difference in the levels of serum VEGF, TNF alpha, IL-1 beta and CA125 among patients with different diseases stage between the two groups was compared and observed.The correlation between the level of CA125 and the levels VEGF, TNF alpha and IL-1 beta among patients with endometriosis was analyzed.
Results The levels of serum VEGF, TNF-α, IL-1 and CA125 in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (
t=-36.588, -45.027, -26.487, -111.105, respectively,
P<0.001);The levels of serum VEGF, TNF-, IL-1 and CA125 were significantly higher in patients with stage IV endometriosis than those in group I and II (
t=-38.815, -7.697, -9.905, -21.326, respectively,
P<0.001);The level of serum CA125 was significantly positively correlated with the levels of VEGF, TNF-and IL-1 among patients with endometriosis (
r=0.489, 0.512, 0.538,
P=0.023, 0.015, 0.002, respectively).The specificity and sensitivity of CA125 in the diagnosis of endometriosis were 45.63 and 35.18, respectively.The sensitivity and sensitivity of CA125 combined with VEGF, TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta in endometriosis were 65.32 and 55.86, respectively.
Conclusion The levels of serum VEGF, TNF alpha, IL-1 beta, and CA125 among patients with endometriosis are higher and they are closely related to the clinical stages of patients.Therefore, the levels of serum VEGF, TNF alpha, IL-1 beta, and CA125 can be used as important indicators for clinical diagnosis.
