To explore the diagnostic accuracy of prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) test for the diagnosis of prostate cancer in this systematic review and meta-analysis.
A systematic literature search of Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases up to October 2019 was performed. The sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. The summary receiver operator characteristic graph came from individual studies. We also conducted metaregression analysis to identify the moderated factors.
Across 54 studies (17,575 patients), the pooled sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio of PCA3 were 0.71 (95% CI, 0.67-0.74), 0.68 (95% CI, 0.63-0.74), and 5.28 (95% CI, 4.28-6.51), respectively. The area under the summary receiver operator characteristic curve was 0.75 (95% CI, 0.71-0.79).
Pooled data indicated that the PCA3 test had moderate sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. PCA3 could be used as a noninvasive method for the diagnosis of prostate cancer.
在本系统评价和荟萃分析中,探索前列腺癌抗原 3(PCA3)检测用于诊断前列腺癌的诊断准确性。
对 Medline、Embase 和 Cochrane Library 数据库进行了系统的文献检索,检索时间截至 2019 年 10 月。计算了敏感性、特异性和诊断优势比及其 95%置信区间(CIs)。汇总受试者工作特征图来自于个体研究。我们还进行了荟萃回归分析,以确定调节因素。
在 54 项研究(17575 名患者)中,PCA3 的合并敏感性、特异性和诊断优势比分别为 0.71(95%CI,0.67-0.74)、0.68(95%CI,0.63-0.74)和 5.28(95%CI,4.28-6.51)。汇总受试者工作特征曲线下面积为 0.75(95%CI,0.71-0.79)。
汇总数据表明,PCA3 检测在诊断前列腺癌方面具有中等的敏感性和特异性。PCA3 可作为一种非侵入性的前列腺癌诊断方法。
