Novel serological biomarker models composed of bone turnover markers, vitamin D, and estradiol and their auxiliary diagnostic value in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty

To establish serological biomarker models composed of bone turnover markers (BTMs), vitamin D (Vit D), and estradiol (E2) and to explore their auxiliary diagnostic value in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP).Ninety-three girls with ICPP and 93 healthy girls were included in the ICPP group and the control group, respectively. The serum levels of total procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), N-terminal midfragment of osteocalcin (N-MID), β-C-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen (β-CTX), Vit D, E2, and other biochemical parameters were detected in all participants. Serological biomarker models for assistance with ICPP diagnosis were established by logistic regression analyses.Serum P1NP, β-CTX, Vit D, and E2 levels differed significantly between the two groups (p < 0.05). Three models were established. Model 1 consisted of P1NP and β-CTX, and had an area under curve (AUC) of 0.764, sensitivity of 74.19%, and specificity of 72.04%. Model 2 consisted of P1NP, β-CTX, and Vit D, and had an AUC of 0.840, sensitivity of 83.87%, and specificity of 72.04%. Model 3 consisted of P1NP, β-CTX, Vit D, and E2, and had an AUC of 0.917, sensitivity of 82.80%, and specificity of 86.02%.Serum P1NP, β-CTX, Vit D, and E2 levels may be effective indicators for auxiliary diagnosis of ICPP. Serological biomarker models composed of P1NP, β-CTX, Vit D, and E2 (models 1, 2, and 3) may have auxiliary diagnostic value for ICPP.
