Multiple cytokine profiling in serum for early detection of gastric cancer

Table 1 Diagnostic value of the five indicators for discriminating the healthy control group and the gastric cancer group

Indicator	AUC	95%CI of AUC	Cutoff value	Sensitivity, %	Specificity, %
IL-6	0.92	0.91-0.94	20.31	92.05	78.92
IL-8	0.65	0.60-0.71	1.45	55.68	79.41
TNF-α	0.76	0.71-0.81	7.82	65.91	82.84
CEA	0.65	0.60-0.71	3.45	36.36	92.65
CA724	0.64	0.58-0.70	5.80	40.91	84.34

AUC: Area under curve; CA: Cancer antigen; CEA: Carcinoembryonic antigen; CI: Confidence interval; IL: Interleukin; TNF: Tumor necrosis factor.
