Application value of peripheral blood IgG and IgM combined with ultrasonic echo parameters of substantia nigra in the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.

We study the clinical value of peripheral blood immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin M (IgM) combined with ultrasonic echo parameters of substantia nigra (SN) in the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). The clinical data of 121 patients with PD (case group) in our hospital from November 2020 to November 2022 were selected for retrospective analysis, and 9 patients with poor sound transmission of temporal window were excluded. Finally, this study included 112 patients with PD and selected 108 health examination population in the same period (control group). The levels of IgG and IgM in both groups were detected, and ultrasound examination was carried out to observe the structure of SN and obtain strong echo area of SN, midbrain area and strong echo area of SN/midbrain area. The receiver operator characteristic curve of serum IgG and IgM combined with ultrasonic echo parameters of SN in the diagnosis of PD was drawn to evaluate the clinical efficacy of single diagnosis and combined diagnosis. Compared with the control group, the serum levels of IgG and IgM, strong echo area of SN, midbrain area and strong echo area of SN/midbrain area in the case group were obviously higher (P < 0.001), while the folic acid level was notably lower (P < 0.05). The AUC value, Youden index and sensitivity of combined diagnosis were higher than those of single detection. Peripheral blood IgG and IgM combined with ultrasonic echo parameters of SN have high clinical value in the diagnosis of PD, which can provide a new direction for the subsequent diagnosis of PD.
