Abstract
Background: This study investigated and compared clinical serum biomarkers and developed a diagnostic nomogram for breast cancer. Methods: A total of 1224 breast cancer and 1280 healthy controls were enrolled. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify factors and a nomogram was developed. Discrimination, accuracy and clinical utility values were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic, Hosmer-Lemeshow, calibration plots, decision curve analysis and clinical impact plots. Results: carcinoembryonic antigen, CA125, CA153, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, fibrinogen and platelet distributing width were effectively identified to predict breast cancer. The nomogram showed the area under the curve of 0.708 and 0.710 in the training and validation set. Calibration plots, Hosmer-Lemeshow, decision curve analysis and clinical impact plots confirmed great accuracy and clinical utility. Conclusion: We developed and validated a nomogram that is effectively used for risk prediction of Chinese breast cancer.
