Abstrakt: In order to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, retrieval was performed using the data bases of Medline, Embase, Cochrane library, Cmcc and Cbmdisc (1990 to 2007). We included the articles which reported the studies of GPI measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in the diagnosis of RA patients. Then we reviewed 15 article and used RevMan Software for analysis; the heterogeneity among the articles was determined to be high (chi2 = 191.65, P < 0.00001). When we analyzed the 5 articles wherein serum was used as the standard, we noticed homogeneity (chi2 = 6.97, P = 0.14). The summary sensitivity was 25%; the summary specificity was 80%; the area under the curve was 0.6279. Our study demonstrated that GPI exhibited high specificity and low sensitivity in diagnosing RA cases. We suggest that GPI be used in conjunction with some assay or other that is characterized by high sensitivity.
