PG - 901 LID - 10.1186/s12885-023-11381-5 [doi] LID - 901 AB - BACKGROUND: The application of coagulation-related markers in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC) remains unclear. This study explored the prognostic role of coagulation markers in the progression and metastasis of LSCC. METHODS: Coagulation markers of patients with LSCC receiving surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University in China, from January 2013 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed and compared with those of contemporary patients with benign laryngeal diseases. The relationship between clinicopathological features of LSCC and coagulation markers was analyzed with the chi-square and rank sum tests. The ROC curve analysis was utilized to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of seven coagulation markers for LSCC and its different clinicopathological features, and to find the optimal cutoff value of each coagulation marker. RESULTS: 303 patients with LSCC and 533 patients with benign laryngeal diseases were included in the present analysis. Compared to the control group, prothrombin time (PT) (p < 0.001), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) (p = 0.001), and Fib (p < 0.001) in patients with LSCC were significantly higher, while mean platelet volume (MPV) (p < 0.001) was significantly shorter. Significant increases were detected in PT (Z = 14.342, p = 0.002), Fib (Z = 25.985, p < 0.001), platelet count (PC) (Z = 12.768, p = 0.005), PCT (Z = 9.178, p = 0.027), MPV (F = 2.948, p = 0.033) in T4 stage. Fib had the highest prognostic value among the seven coagulation markers in different T stages (AUC = 0.676, p < 0.001), N stages (AUC = 0.717, p < 0.001), tumor stage (AUC = 0.665, p < 0.001), differentiation degree (AUC = 0.579, p = 0.022), and neurovascular invasion (AUC = 0.651, p = 0.007). Fib (Z = 25.832, p < 0.001), PC (Z = 23.842, p < 0.001), and PCT (Z = 20.15, p < 0.001) in N1 and N3 stages were significantly higher than in N0 stage. PT (Z = 12.174, p = 0.007), Fib (Z = 23.873, p < 0.001), PC (Z = 17.785, p < 0.001), and PCT (Z = 14.693, p = 0.002) were significantly higher in stage IV than in stage I and II. APTT (Z=-1.983, p = 0.047), Fib (Z=-2.68, p = 0.007), PC (Z=-2.723, p = 0.006), and PCT (Z=-2.592, p = 0.01) increased significantly when the tumor invaded neurovascular tissue. CONCLUSIONS: Coagulation markers have the potential to act as biomarkers for predicting pathological features of LSCC. The high level of Fib was helpful for the diagnosis of LSCC and the detection of advanced LSCC. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Not applicable. CI - (c) 2023. BioMed Central Ltd., part of Springer Nature.
