Abstract:Objective To explore the relations of the serum PGI, PG Ⅱlevels and PG I/II ratio (PGR) with age and gender in the physical examination people and to verify the serum PGI, PGII and PGR reference range. Methods 377 cases were enrolled for physical examination and gastroscopy. The serum PG I and PGII levels were assayed by the immune turbidmetric method. The effects of age and gender on serum PG levels were analyzed. Results The serum levels of PGI and PGII in peptic ulcer patients were obviously higher than that the average levels,and the PGR in peptic ulcer patients were obviously lower. The PGⅠlevels and PGR in gastritis trophic patients were significantly lower, but PGII were higher than that the average levels. The PGI and PGII levels of male were significantly higher than that average level. At age of 18~75, the serum PGI and PG Ⅱlevels increased as age growth, but PGI/PG Ⅱ ratio was decreased. The serum levels of PGI and PGII in peptic ulcer patients were obviously higher than that the average, but PGR obviously lower. The PGⅠlevels and PGR in gastritis trophic patients were significantly lower, but PGII levels were higher than that the average. Conclusion The combined detection of serum PGI, PG Ⅱlevels and PG I/II ratio have important clinical significance to stomach disease screening in physical examination.
