Proposed carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) cut-off values for the detection of pancreatic cancer in patients with poorly controlled diabetes: a real-world study

open access: yesEndocrine Journal, 2023
CA19-9 is a tumor marker for pancreatic cancer (PC), and the nondiabetic cut-off level is 37 U/mL. CA19-9 levels are said to rise in patients with tumors like PC and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). CA19-9 levels have also been shown to be

Carbohydrate antigen 19-9-producing splenic cyst: a case report [PDF]

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
We describe the case of a 40s woman with a carbohydrate antigen (CA)19-9-producing splenic cyst. The lesion was detected incidentally at the splenic hilum, and resected after 5 years of follow-up.

Prognostic significance of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) change during immediate postoperative periods in patients with stage I–III colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Coloproctology
Purpose Although carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) may exhibit low sensitivity in tumor screening, its prognostic significance has been highlighted. This study assessed the significance of preoperative CA19-9 and early postoperative CA19-9 levels in ...

Metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma presenting with elevated serum levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9): a case report. [PDF]

open access: yesSurg Case Rep, 2022
Abstract Background The major sites of distant metastases of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) are the lung and bone; metastasis to the liver is rare. Although the postoperative serum thyroglobulin (Tg) level after total thyroidectomy is a good prognostic indicator for PTC when anti-thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) is ...

Availability of Serum Levels of Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) as a Surrogate Tumor Marker for Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yesJMA J
Thyroglobulin (Tg) is a very sensitive and specific marker in patients who have undergone total thyroidectomy for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). However, the presence of a Tg antibody (TgAb) interferes with Tg immunometric assays, making Tg levels unreliable indicators.

Diagnostic and Prognostic Performance of MicroRNA-25, Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9, Carcinoembryonic Antigen, and Carbohydrate Antigen 125 in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
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

Mirrizi Syndrome and Markedly Elevated Levels of Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 in the Absence of Malignant Disease [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, 2017
Elevated carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) beyond 1000 U/L occurs in nonneoplastic conditions which is causing questioning of the use of CA19-9 as a marker for screening.

A Capacitive Biosensor for the Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer Using Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings, 2022
Pancreatic cancer has one of the highest cancer mortality rates, as it is often detected in late stages, when unresectable tumours are present. Researchers have identified a biomarker associated with the early detection of pancreatic cancer, called ...

Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) response after induction FOLFIRINOX for locally advanced pancreatic cancer identifies patients who may benefit from surgical exploration: multicentre, observational cohort study. [PDF]

open access: yesBr J Surg
Abstract Background Which patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer may benefit from surgical exploration after induction treatment remains debated. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to identify independent factors for overall survival after surgical exploration for locally ...

Carbohydrate antigen 19‐9 is a prognostic and predictive biomarker in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer who receive gemcitabine‐containing chemotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesCancer, 2013
BACKGROUND: Carbohydrate antigen 19‐9 (CA19‐9) is a widely used biomarker in pancreatic cancer. There is no consensus on the interpretation of the change in CA19‐9 serum levels and its role in the clinical management of patients with pancreatic cancer.
