| Core Tip |
The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical significance of serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in the diagnosis and staging of silicosis. The results showed that the serum NSE concentration of silicosis patients was significantly higher than that of non-silicosis patients. With the progression of silicosis, NSE concentration increased gradually. The Receiver operating characteristic curve suggested that when the diagnostic threshold of NSE was 15.82 ng/mL, the area under the curve was 0.858 (P = 0.000), with sensitivity of 72% and specificity of 90%. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the largest study on silicosis biomarkers so far. |
