Despite numerous reports on the alterations of microRNA-1246 (miR-1246) expression level in digestive system cancers, its role in gastrointestinal cancers (GICs) remains unclear. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic potential of circulating miR-1246 in GICs.
Meta-disc version 1.4 and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) version 3.7 software were used to calculate pooled sensitivity, specificity, likelihood ratios, diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), area under the curve (AUC), Q*index and summary receiver-operating characteristic (SROC). Subgroup analyses were conducted for cancer type, sample type and geographical region. Publication bias was assessed using Begg's and Egger's tests.
A total of 14 articles involving 18 studies and 1526 participants (972 cases and 554 controls) were included. The diagnostic accuracy of miRNA-1246 in GICs was as follows: pooled sensitivity: 0.81 (95% CI: 0.79 - 0.83), specificity: 0.74 (95% CI: 0.71 - 0.77), PLR: 3.315 (95% CI: 2.33 - 4.72), NLR: 0.221 (95% CI: 0.153 - 0.319), DOR: 16.87 (95% CI: 9.45 - 30.09), AUC: 0.891, and Q*-index: 0.807. No publication bias was found based on Begg's ( = 0.172) and Egger's ( = 0.113) tests.
Circulating miR-1246 shows promise as a non-invasive biomarker for early detection of GICs.
尽管有大量关于 microRNA-1246(miR-1246)表达水平改变的报道,但在胃肠道癌症(GICs)中其作用仍不清楚。本荟萃分析旨在评估循环 miR-1246 在 GICs 中的诊断潜力。
使用 Meta-disc 版本 1.4 和 Comprehensive Meta-Analysis(CMA)版本 3.7 软件计算合并的敏感性、特异性、似然比、诊断优势比(DOR)、曲线下面积(AUC)、Q*指数和汇总受试者工作特征(SROC)。根据癌症类型、样本类型和地理位置进行亚组分析。使用 Begg's 和 Egger's 检验评估发表偏倚。
共纳入 14 篇文章,涉及 18 项研究和 1526 名参与者(972 例病例和 554 例对照)。miRNA-1246 在 GICs 中的诊断准确性如下:合并敏感性:0.81(95%CI:0.79-0.83),特异性:0.74(95%CI:0.71-0.77),PLR:3.315(95%CI:2.33-4.72), NLR:0.221(95%CI:0.153-0.319),DOR:16.87(95%CI:9.45-30.09),AUC:0.891,Q*-指数:0.807。基于 Begg's(=0.172)和 Egger's(=0.113)检验,未发现发表偏倚。
循环 miR-1246 有望成为 GIC 早期检测的非侵入性生物标志物。
