Title: [The value of autofluorescence spectrum analysis of gastric juice in diagnosing gastric carcinoma: a preliminary result].
Abstract: To reveal the difference of autofluorescence spectrums of gastric juice derived from malignancy and benignancy for screening and diagnosis of gastric carcinoma.Gastric juice from 202 patients with different gastric diseases were collected, then detected their autofluorescence spectrums (the excitation wavelength is 288 nm, whereas the range of emission wavelength is 300 - 800 nm) after diluted by 1:10. The diagnostic model for gastric cancer was made by Classification and Regression Trees V2.0 software.There were three peaks (the emission wavelength were 320 - 360 nm, 576 nm and 670 - 690 nm respectively) in the autofluorescence spectrums of all patients, though the intensity of the first peak (with the emission wavelength of 320 - 360 nm) were enhanced distinctively in malignance than those in benignancy. The diagnostic model's sensitivity and specificity of prior probability were 91.4% and 83.2% respectively, whereas the sensitivity and specificity of posterior probability were 85.7% and 82.6%.Detection of autofluorescence spectrum of gastric juice has great prospect in the diagnosis and screening gastric carcinoma.
