Diagnostic value of serum STIP1 in HCC and AFP-negative HCC.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of stress-induced phosphoprotein 1 (STIP1) in serum for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-negative HCC (ANHC).

Methods

In this study, serum samples were collected from 158 HCC patients and 63 non-HCC patients. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors associated with HCC and ANHC. The diagnostic values of each index for HCC and ANHC were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.

Results

The STIP1, des-γ-carboxy prothrombin (DCP), and AFP levels were higher in the HCC groups than in the non-HCC groups (P < .05). Age, DCP, STIP1, and hepatitis B virus infection were independent predictors of HCC (P < .05). The diagnos
