Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the value of multigene testing [KRAS,NRAS,PIK3CA(H1047R) and BRAF(V600E),KNPB] in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules.Methods:A total of 232 patients with thyroid nodules who underwent multigene testing from January 2020 to February 2021 were selected from our hospital.Clinical information was collected to analyse the mutation frequency of each gene in KNPB in thyroid nodules.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,cost-effectiveness ratio and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of each test were compared using postoperative pathology as the "gold standard".Results:There were 251 nodules in 232 patients,with a total of 69(27.49%) BRAF(V600E)mutations,11(4.38%)KRAS mutations,9(3.59%) NRAS mutations,and no mutation detected in PIK3CA(H1047R).Among the 164 operated patients including 64 nodular goitres,9 thyroid adenomas,4 follicular thyroid carcinomas and 87 papillary thyroid carcinomas,the difference was statistically significant only for the BRAF(V600E) gene (P<0.001).The area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) combined with BRAF(V600E) single gene detection was 0.856 and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 98.81.Conclusion:Compared to multigenetesting,FNAC combined with BRAF(V600E) single gene detection has the best diagnostic performance and health economic value for thyroid nodules.
