Abstract:Objective To analyze the differential value of gastrointestinal stromal tumors and non-gastrointestinal stromal tumor by cytokeratin-19 fragment (CYFRA21-1), protein kinase B (PKB) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) combined with endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS).Methods 69 patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors from January 2020 to July 2023 were selected as the study group, and 78 patients with non-gastrointestinal stromal tumor (they were 25 cases of gastrointestinal leiomyoma and 53 cases of gastrointestinal schwannoma) were selected as the control group during the same period prospectively. The EUS indicators and tumor markers in the two groups were compared. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to analyze the diagnostic value of serum levels of CYFRA21-1, PKB and CA19-9 alone and in combination for gastrointestinal stromal tumors.Results Compared with the control group, the mean gray level, gray standard deviation and serum levels of CYFRA21-1, PKB and CA19-9 in the study group were higher (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in mean gray level, gray standard deviation and serum levels of CYFRA21-1, PKB and CA19-9 in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors of different genders and ages (P > 0.05). Compared with patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors with tumor diameter ≤ 5 cm and pathological mitotic figure ≤ 5 /50 HPF, the mean gray level, gray standard deviation and serum levels of CYFRA21-1, PKB and CA19-9 were higher in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors with tumor diameter > 5 cm and pathological mitotic figure > 5 /50 HPF (P < 0.05). Gastrointestinal stromal tumors were included as positive and non-gastrointestinal stromal tumor as negative. ROC curve was drawn to analyze the diagnostic value of gray mean value, gray standard deviation, serum levels of CYFRA21-1, PKB, and CA19-9 alone and in combination for gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and the combined detection was the highest, area under the curve (AUC) was 0.936, the sensitivity was 82.61%, and the specificity was 91.03%.Conclusion With the occurrence and development of gastrointestinal stromal tumors, CYFRA21-1, PKB, CA19-9 levels, gray mean value and gray standard deviation increase, and levels of CYFRA21-1, PKB, CA19-9 combined with EUS are valuable in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
