Levels of interleukin 6,procalcitonin and fibrinogen of patients with torsion of ovarian cyst and their diagnostic values
Objective:To investigate the expressions of interleukin 6(IL-6),procalcitonin(PCT)and fibrinogen of pa-tients with torsion of ovarian cyst,and to study their diagnostic values.Methods:The clinical data of 106 patients with ovarian cyst torsion(in study group)and 82 patients without ovarian cyst torsion(in control group)admitted to hospi-tal from January 2020 to December 2022 were collected.The patients in the study group were divided into group A(pa-tients with ovarian cyst necrosis)and group B(patients without ovarian cyst necrosis)according to the postoperative pathological results of the patients.The expression levels of IL-6,PCT and fibrinogen of the patients were compared a-mong these groups,and their diagnostic values for the ovarian cyst torsion was analyzed.Results:The levels of IL-6(12.8±0.6 pg/ml),PCT(0.6±0.1 ng/ml)and fibrinogen(3.0±0.8 g/L)of the patients in the study group were sig-nificantly higher than those(8.2±0.3 pg/ml,0.1±0.0 ng/ml and 1.2±0.4 g/L)of the patients in the control group,and which of the patients in group A were significantly higher than those of the patients in group B(all P<0.05).Re-ceiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of the IL-6 level,the PCT level,the fibrinogen level or the combination levels of IL-6,PCT and fibrinogen of the patients with ovarian cyst for diagnosing their torsion of ovarian cyst was 0.811,0.891,0.635 or 0.953,respectively.The sensitivity,the specificity and the ac-curacy of the combination levels of iIL-6,PCT and fibrinogen of the patients with ovarian cyst for diagnosing the tor-sion of their ovarian cyst were 98.1%,92.3 and 89.8%,respectively.Conclusion:The combined levels of IL-6,PCT and fibrinogen of the patients with ovarian cyst for diagnosing their torsion of ovarian cyst has higher value,which can be used to guide the clinical practice.
