Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can increase serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels. We thus aimed to evaluate the impact of CKD on CEA prognostic accuracy in colorectal cancer. METHODS Altogether, 429 patients who underwent curative resection for stages I-III colorectal adenocarcinoma were grouped according to postoperative CEA levels and history of CKD. RESULTS Three-year disease-free survival (DFS) was higher in patients with normal postoperative CEA (group A, 83.4%) than in those with elevated postoperative CEA (group B, 64.3%) (p < 0.001). CKD patients had higher postoperative CEA levels than non-CKD patients (odds ratio 3.27, 95% confidence interval 1.78-5.99, p < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, postoperative CEA level was an independent prognostic factor for DFS in non-CKD, but not CKD, patients. CONCLUSIONS CKD can increase postoperative CEA levels in colorectal cancer patients. Elevated postoperative CEA levels were associated with shorter DFS in non-CKD, but not CKD, patients.

Abstract
In order to evaluate the specificity of tumor markers in chronic renal failure, we have determined serum levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19.9 (CA 19.9), carbohydrate antigen 50 (CA 50), alfafetoprotein (AFP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP), prostatic specific antigen (PSA), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC), carbohydrate antigen 15.3 (CA 15.3) and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA 125) in 30 patients with cronic renal failure and in 36 hemodialyzed patients without clinical evidence of neoplasia. CEA, CA 50, NSE and SCC frequently show increased serum levels, suggesting a renal metabolism, while others remain, generally, within the normal levels.

Abstract
Several non-neoplastic conditions, i.e., acute and chronic inflammations, benign tumors, renal or hepatic insufficiency, are associated with elevated plasma levels of Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA). Usually, CEA elevation in these pathologies is less than 10 ng/ml. CEA values in non-malignant disease can be affected by many factors, which can be classified into five main categories: a) tissular, b) physiological, c) metabolic, d) circulating and e) methodological factors. Synthesis, expression and realease are the most important tissular factors. Among the metabolic ones liver, biliary and renal functions play a primary role in the determination of CEA concentrations. In addition, other factors such as the presence of circulating CEA-like substances, autoantibodies and immunocomplexes or the characteristics of the assay method can influence the diagnostic value of the CEA test. All these factors must be carefully considered when the marker is used in clinical practice.

Abstract
Aims The main objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on concentrations of five tumor markers (TMs): carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 (CA19-9), CA15-3, CA125, and prostate specific antigen (PSA) in a group of chronic hemodialysis patients (CHPs); and to study the influence of hemodialysis (HD) sessions on concentrations of the same TMs. Methods We compared TMs levels in CHP before HD sessions to a control group of 50 healthy volunteers, the dosages were determined before and immediately after the HD session Comparisons were made before and after correction for dialysis-induced hemoconcentrations. Results We enrolled 74 CHPs, all TM concentrations were higher in this group compared to control group, but this increase was significant for CEA (4.25 ± 2.89 vs 2.41 ± 1.81ng/ml; p<0.0001), CA125 (27.84 ± 92.27 vs 13.30 ± 9.85 ng/ml; p = 0.048) and CA19-9 (19.65 ± 25.02 vs 10.23 ± 11.00 U/ml; p = 0.011). Post-dialysis levels were significantly higher than those in pre-dialysis. CEA (3.35 [2,46-5.51] vs 4,06 [2.60-6.78] ng/ml; p<0.0001), CA125 (13.24 [9.66-18.63] vs 16.01 [11.33-22.53] ng/ml; p<0.0001), CA19-9 (12.29 [5.59-21.97] vs 16.29 [7.18-24.7] U/ml; p<0.0001), CA15-3 (13.06 [10.05-17.48] vs 14.58 [11.72-19.35] ng/ml; p<0.0001 and PSA (0.83 [0.5-1.24] vs 1.06 [0.62-1.43] ng/ml; p<0.0001). Conclusions Our work confirms that HD increases concentrations of the five TMs evaluated and suggests that the use of CA15-3 and PSA remains valid in CHPs since their concentrations were not altered by ESRD, unlike CEA, CA125, and CA19-9.

Abstract
Since renal failure causes decrease in tumor marker excretion, use of these markers in cancer care and treatment in patients with renal insufficiency or hemodialysis is controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate differences of serum levels of tumor markers CA15-3, AFP, CA19-9 and CEA in patients with impaired renal function. A total of 100 patients referred to the Tabriz Immam Reza and Amiralmomenin hospital from June 2010 to November 2011 were selected for study. Subjects were divided to 3 groups of healthy, dialysis and renal failure but non hemodialysis cases, the last category being re-grouped based on creatinine clearance. No significant relationship between different groups in serum levels of CEA (P=0.99) and CA19-9 (P=0.29) tumor markers was found. A significant correlation was observed between serum levels of AFP (P<0.001) and CA15-3 (P<0.001) and also a tendency between creatinine clearance and CEA (r=0.05, P=0.625). Creatinine clearance significantly correlated with AFP (P<0.001, r=0.53) and CA15-3 (p=0.00, r=-0.412), but not CA19-9 (P=0.089, r=-0.171). According to results of this study it appears that use of tumor markers in patients with impaired renal function should be performed with special precautions.

Abstract
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA) levels in serum and urine from 25 patients with bladder cancer and 42 patients with cancer of the renal pelvis/ureter have been evaluated as an aid for clinical diagnosis of urothelial cancer. The tumour CEA content varied markedly, from values obtained in normal urothelium up to 822 and 7306 ng/g wet tissue in cancer of the renal pelvis/ureter and bladder cancer, respectively. Serum and urine CEA levels were found not to correlate with the tumour CEA content. Serum CEA levels were found increased over 5 microg/L in up to 16% of bladder cancer patients, but only in 4.8% in renal pelvis/ureter cancer. Urine of cancer patients contained usually normal CEA levels. Increased serum TPA levels were found in 48% and 35.7% of patients with bladder cancer and cancer of renal pelvis/ureter, respectively. Urine TPA levels were significantly increased in both, patients with bladder cancer (p<0.001) and cancer of renal pelvis/ureter (p<0.01). The median values of urine TPA were 59, 1095 and 1325 U/L, in controls, patients with bladder cancer and cancer of renal pelvis/ureter, respectively. However, considering previously described increase of TPA in inflammatory diseases of urinary tract and in renal failure patients, results of urinary TPA obtained in the diagnostic workup of urothelial cancer should be cautiously interpreted. This study shows that serum and urine levels of CEA and TPA have no diagnostic accuracy required for clinical diagnosis of urothelial cancer.

Abstract
Balkan nephropathy (BEN) is commonly associated with urothelial cancer. Urothelial cancer is manifested in the advanced stage of disease. The aim of this study was to facilitate early detection of urothelial cancer in BEN patients and their family members living in an endemic region by using tumour markers, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA), and a putative marker, ferritin. Fifteen BEN patients with normal renal function, 17 with renal failure (BEN-RF), 13 healthy members of their families (HFM), 14 patients with glomerulonephritis (GN) and 12 healthy controls (C) were studied. Serum CEA levels in BEN patients were within normal limits, however, in BEN-RF patients they were significantly increased over HFM (p<0.05). Serum TPA levels in BEN and BEN-RF patients were significantly higher than in the C and HFM groups (p<0.05). Urinary CEA was not significantly different between the groups studied. Urinary TPA levels in HFM (median 125 U/l, BEN (236 U/l) and BEN-RF (275 U/l) were significantly increased over C (30 U/l), however, TPA levels were increased also in GN patients (437 U/l). None of the BEN patients studied developed urothelial cancer during the ten years' follow-up. Markedly elevated urinary TPA-like levels in all patients studied (HFM, BEN, BEN-RF, GN) suggest that urinary TPA may not be a reliable tumour marker. However, the clinical relevance of high TPA levels in BEN patients should be evaluated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the significance of immunosuppressive acidic protein (IAP) for detection of renal cell carcinoma in patients undergoing haemodialysis. PATIENTS AND METHODS The serum concentration of both IAP and creatinine was measured in 74 patients undergoing haemodialysis, 10 of whom had renal cell carcinoma and 64 of whom had no renal cell carcinoma. Control data was obtained from 13 healthy blood donors. RESULTS The serum IAP level of patients undergoing haemodialysis was significantly elevated compared with that of the controls. The serum level of IAP in patients with renal cell carcinoma who were undergoing haemodialysis was also considerably higher than that of patients with no renal cell carcinoma. The serum creatinine levels were not significantly different between patients with and without renal cell carcinoma but were significantly elevated when compared with the controls. CONCLUSION The measurement of serum IAP concentration is of value in the detection of renal cell carcinoma in patients undergoing haemodialysis.
