Coagulation parameters for the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in the early stage: a retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In recent years, conventional coagulation (CC) and thromboelastography (TEG) parameters have been reported to be closely related to the progression of pancreatic cancer (PC). However, the potential utility of these parameters in differentiating benign and malignant pancreatic diseases is still unclear.

Objectives

A retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of coagulation parameters in differentiating pancreatic cancer/early stage pancreatic cancer (EPC, TNM stages I and II) from benign control conditions, and to further explore whether coagulation parameters could improve the differential value of CA199.

Methods

Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and logistic regression analysis were used to identify the diagnostic value of each
