Prospective study of MMP7 serum levels in the diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma

Table 5 Odd Ratios estimates for diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma

Variables	OR (95% CI)	P
CA19-9	15.2 (5.20-44.56)	< 0.001
MMP7	5.5 (1.87-16.03)	0.002
Albumin	0.015 (0.01-0.15)	< 0.001
Total bilirubin	2.4 (0.81-7.20)	0.115
AST	1.2 (0.37-4.12)	0.738
ALP	0.3 (0.09-1.05)	0.060

The significant parameters (P < 0.05) selected by the model are shown. AST: Aspartate aminotransferase; ALP: Alkaline phosphatase; MMP7: Matrix metalloproteinase-7; CA19-9: Carbohydrate antigen 19-9.
