Preoperative Serum Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 Levels Cannot Predict the Surgical Resectability of Pancreatic Cancer: A Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Background and Aims: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma has one of the worst prognosis of all malignancies. This investigated the relationship between the preoperative serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 and surgical resectability.Methods: A systematic search ...

Increased carbohydrate antigen 19‐9 expression in a thymic neuroendocrine tumor [PDF]
Here, we report a case of carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19‐9‐producing mediastinal neuroendocrine tumor (NET) (atypical carcinoid). A 54‐year‐old woman with no specific relevant medical history was referred to our hospital because of increased CA19‐9 (95.3 U/

Diagnostic and Prognostic Performance of MicroRNA-25, Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9, Carcinoembryonic Antigen, and Carbohydrate Antigen 125 in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Background: Pancreatic cancer is a malignancy with high mortality due to the difficulties in early detection. We investigated and compared the diagnostic and prognostic performance of several blood biomarkers, including microRNA-25 (miR-25), carbohydrate

Sex-specific association between carbohydrate antigen 19–9 and incident type 2 diabetes [PDF]
Carbohydrate antigen 19–9 (CA19-9) levels are associated with glycemic control, insulin resistance, and chronic complications in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Women generally show higher CA19-9 levels despite a greater T2D prevalence in men.
