背景和目的：乙型肝炎病毒 (HBV) 感染患者中与异常升高的甲胎蛋白 (AFP) 相关的因素仍有待研究。我们旨在确定与非肝细胞癌 (HCC) 和早期 HCC 患者血清 AFP 升高相关的因素及其对 AFP 检测早期 HCC 性能的影响。方法：这项多中心、回顾性研究对 4401 名慢性 HBV 感染患者进行，其中包括 3680 名非 HCC 患者和 721 名早期 HCC 患者。分析了与 AFP 升高相关的因素。通过受试者工作特征曲线下面积（AUC）、敏感性和特异性在各组之间比较 AFP 对早期 HCC 的诊断性能。结果：当通过多变量逻辑回归分析时，抗病毒治疗与 AFP 升高呈负相关，而乙型肝炎 e 抗原 (HBeAg) 和天冬氨酸氨基转移酶 (AST) > 1× 正常上限 (ULN) 与 AFP 升高呈正相关非 HCC 和早期 HCC 患者（均 p < 0.05）。与非抗病毒治疗相比，抗病毒治疗、HBV DNA (-)、丙氨酸氨基转移酶 (ALT) ≤ 1× ULN 和 AST ≤ 1× ULN 的 AFP 用于检测早期 HCC 的 AUC 显着升高，分别为 HBV DNA (+)、ALT > 1× ULN 和 AST > 1× ULN 组。当将患者分类为 AST ≤ 1× ULN 和 > 1× ULN 时，无论抗病毒治疗如何，AFP 在 AST ≤ 1× ULN 的患者中均达到最高的 AUC（AUC 分别为 0.813 和 0.806）。此外，当应用相似的敏感性和特异性时，不同亚组中 AFP 检测早期 HCC 的临界值存在相当大的差异。结论：抗病毒治疗和血清AST可用于帮助判断和选择不同高危人群HCC监测血清AFP的具体临界值。查看全文

Abstract
Background and aims: Factors associated with abnormally elevated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected patients remain to be studied. We aimed to identify factors associated with elevated serum AFP in patients with non-hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and early-stage HCC and their influences on the performance of AFP for detecting early-stage HCC. Methods: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 4401 patients with chronic HBV infection, including 3680 patients with non-HCC and 721 patients with early-stage HCC. Factors associated with elevated AFP were analyzed. Diagnostic performance of AFP for early-stage HCC were compared among groups through area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity. Results: When analyzed by multivariate logistic regression, antiviral therapy was negatively associated with elevated AFP, while hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 1× upper limit of normal (ULN) were positively associated with elevated AFP both in patients with non-HCC and early-stage HCC (all p < 0.05). The AUCs of AFP for detecting early-stage HCC in patients with antiviral therapy, HBV DNA (−), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 1× ULN, and AST ≤ 1× ULN were significantly higher compared to those in non-antiviral therapy, HBV DNA (+), ALT > 1× ULN, and AST > 1× ULN groups, respectively. When categorizing patients into AST ≤ 1× ULN and > 1× ULN, AFP achieved the highest AUCs in patients with AST ≤ 1× ULN regardless of antiviral treatment (AUCs = 0.813 and 0.806, respectively). Furthermore, there were considerable differences in the cut-off values of AFP in detecting early-stage HCC in different subgroups when applying similar sensitivity and specificity. Conclusions: Antiviral therapy and serum AST might be used to help judge and select the specific cut-off values of serum AFP for HCC surveillance in different at-risk populations. View Full-Text
