OBJECTIVE: Based on the Huimin policy of Weihai Social Security Bureau, this project aims to investigate feasibility of screening through screening of serum tumor markers (TM) in the middle-aged and elderly population in Weihai area. According to the joint mode of examination institution and clinical department (oncology), we provide dynamic follow-up for subjects for early intervention of abnormal tumor screening and high-risk population, through which we can cut off pathogenic pathway of cancer and improve early diagnosis of cancer and enhance the cure rate.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: We continued to track subjects whose TM was not reduced to normal until it was normal or diagnosed, collecting the blood samples of eligible patients that we removed high-risk factors from the subjects so that TM could be lowered to normal.
RESULTS: A total of 83,049 blood samples were detected in our hospital, and 89 patients were diagnosed with newly diagnosed tumor. The positive expression rate of CEA in lung cancer patients was 91.4%.
CONCLUSIONS: The diagnosis of tumor relies not only on TM, but also on observation of clinical symptoms, continuous observation of TM dynamic changes and individualized comprehensive analysis. The main purpose of this policy is not only to find patients with “early tumor”, but also to cut off the pathogenic pathway of cancer, achieve purpose of tertiary prevention and significantly save medical costs. The examination mechanism and the clinical-related departments are connected, and the pattern of screening, tracking and analysis of abnormal results in large samples is in line with the present situation of China and is worthy of clinical promotion.
