Tumors >5cm in diameter resulted in significantly higher plasma OPN compared to tumors <5cm (p<0.05). Child-Pugh score, multiple tumors, or lymph nodes didn’t significantly affect OPN levels in HCC group (p>0.05). Diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy of OPN for HCC vs Cirrhotic group were superior to AFP (97%, 70%, and 84% at cut-off value 90 ng/mL for OPN vs 90%, 63% and 77% at cut-off value 5.5 ng/ml for AFP). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) value for OPN was higher than AUC value for AFP (0.923 vs. 0.902). Conclusion: Serum OPN had better diagnostic ability for detecting HCC compared to AFP, suggesting OPN as a promising diagnostic marker for HCC at normal AFP levels.","PeriodicalId":261891,"journal":{"name":"Afro-Egyptian Journal of Infectious and Endemic Diseases","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128683535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The three studied groups showed no statistically significant difference (p > 0.05) as regards age, sex, level of education, and marital status. But there was a statistically significant difference between groups regarding occupation and special habits in the form of hashish smoking. There was no marked difference in COVID-19 symptoms between group II and group III. The mean of the Modified Health Assessment Questionnaire (MHAQ) was 5.5 in RA group versus 8 in RA-COVID-19 group ,with statistically significant difference between group I and II as regard DAS28.
