摘要
背景:γ -谷氨酰转移酶(GGT)已被证明与包括癌症在内的几种疾病有关。以往的研究调查了GGT水平对胃肠道(GI)癌症发病率的影响。我们的目标是系统地调查这些研究,以更好地了解GGT和GI癌症之间的相互关系。方法:检索在线数据库,查找不同GGT水平对大肠癌、食管癌、肝癌、胰腺癌、胃癌、胆管癌等胃肠道肿瘤发病率影响的相关研究。随机效应荟萃分析GGT四分位数(Qs)对癌症发病率影响的风险比(hr)。结果:最终综述共纳入26项研究,其中12项进行了荟萃分析,调查了1100万患者。基于荟萃分析,Q4患者胃肠道肿瘤发病率增高69% (HR 1.69, 95% CI 1.41-2.02, p值)。结论:GGT水平升高与胃肠道肿瘤发病率增高相关,尤其是结直肠癌和肝癌。未来的研究应该探讨这种生物标志物在消化道癌症风险评估中的潜在作用。
The Association Between Serum Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase and Gastrointestinal Cancer Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Background: Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) has been shown to have associations with several diseases including cancers. Previous studies have investigated the effect of GGT levels on the gastrointestinal (GI) cancer incidence. We aim to systematically investigate these studies to provide better insights into the interrelationship between GGT and GI cancers.
Methods: Online databases were searched to find relevant studies investigating different GGT levels' effects on the incidence of GI cancers including colorectal, esophageal, liver, pancreas, gastric, and biliary duct cancers. Random-effect meta-analysis was conducted to pool the hazard ratios (HRs) of GGT quartiles (Qs) effect on cancer incidence.
Results: A total of 26 studies were included in the final review, 12 of which underwent meta-analysis that investigated 11 million patients. Based on the meta-analysis, Q4 patients had a 69% higher hazard of GI cancer incidence (HR 1.69, 95% CI 1.41-2.02, p-value < 0.001). The hazard ratio significance was also similar for Q3 (HR 1.22, 95% CI 1.15-1.30, p-value < 0.001) and Q2 (HR 1.10, 95% CI 1.05-1.16, p-value =0.002) of GGT. Colorectal and liver cancers showed a higher hazard ratio among Q2, Q3, and Q4 of GGT compared to Q1. In pancreas and bile duct cancers, only Q4 of GGT had significantly higher HR. Q3 and Q4 of GGT levels had statistically significant associations with gastric cancer incidence.
Conclusion: Higher GGT levels correlate with higher rates of GI cancer incidence, especially in colorectal and hepatic cancers. Future studies should investigate this biomarker's potential role in risk assessment for digestive cancers.
