Usefulness of thyrogastric immune features as predictors of pernicious anaemia that lacks intrinsic factor antibody.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:The study aims to evaluate the diagnostic utility of thyrogastric immune features in the identification of intrinsic factor antibody negative (IFA -ve) pernicious anaemia (PA) patients. METHODS:Clinico-pathological features of 'intrinsic factor antibody positive (IFA +ve) PA' and 'IFA -ve presumed PA' Chinese patients in a single hospital (2001-2009) were studied. Coefficients of independent variables identified were used as weighted scores. The result was validated by patients (1994-2000) with Schilling test done. RESULTS:Comparison of 127 'IFA +ve PA' and 130 'IFA -ve presumed PA' patients showed four independent variables, namely (+) gastric parietal cell (GPC) antibody (OR, 2.907, 95%; CI, 2.346-3.468; P < 0.001), (+) antithyroid antibodies (OR, 3.098, 95%; CI, 2.496-3.70; P < 0.001), (+) gastric atrophy (OR, 3.827, 95%; CI, 3.041-4.64; P = 0.001), and (-) Helicobacter pylori (HP) organisms (OR, 0.134, 95%; CI, -1.60-1.869; P = 0.023). The respective scores were 1.067, 1.131, 1.342 and -2.012. Total scores for each patient ranged from 3.54 to -2.012. When the cut-off score 1.528 was applied to the validation sample (n = 75), the specificity of identifying IFA -ve PA was 100%, sensitivity 53%, positive predictive value 100%, and negative predictive value 36%. CONCLUSION:Patients with two out of three features, GPC, antithyroid antibodies, gastric atrophy, but without HP organisms; or three features with HP organisms, can be predicted to have PA.
