Abstract Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of serum CEA, SCC and SF as analyzed with Logistic vegression and ROC curve in patients with lung cancer lymph nodes metastasis. Method: Serum CEA, SCC, and SF were detected in 100 patients with lung cancer, and in those cases, 65 cases were identified as lymph nodes metastasis group and 35 as non-metsatasis group. Result: The positive rate of CEA and SCC of metastais group was evidently higher than that of non-metastasis( P<0.01,P<0.05), but there was no significant difference for SF between the two groups. According to regression equation Y=1/[1+EXP(1.584X1+0.935X2-0.425)], and the AUC of variable Y was higher than any of the three tumor markers. Conclusion: The combination of CEA and SCC is useful as indicator of lung cancer lymph nodes metastasis. Applications of Logistic regression and ROC curve increase diagnostic accuracy in lung cancer.
