A Correction on Diagnostic performance of intracystic carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) versus glucose in differentiation of mucinous and non-mucinous pancreatic cysts by Gyimesi G, Keczer B, Rein P, Horváth M, Szűcs Á, Marjai T, Szijártó A and Hritz I (2024).

There were mistakes in Table 3 as published. The values in the table are incorrect and do not correspond with the numbers in the abstract and in the text. The corrected Table 3 appears below.

Diagnostic performance of CEA, Glucose and CEA with Glucose combined.

​ Mucinous Non-mucinous p-value
CEA (Cutoff 192 ng/mL)
CEA level, median (95% CI) 449.5 (1,587–58.23) 3 (16.3–3) <0.0001
Elevated/non-elevated (n) 36/16 0/39 ​
Glucose (Cutoff 50 mg/dL)
Glucose level, median (95% CI) 8.1 (11.71–1.8) 100.9 (115.3–55.86) <0.0001
Elevated/non-elevated (n) 2/50 31/8 ​
CEA and glucose
Either CEA elevated or glucose non-elevated 52/0 8/31 ​
Amylase (Cutoff 250 IU/L)
Amylase level, median (95%CI) 2,445 (1,011–8,825) 10,360 (173–52,800) ​
Elevated/non-elevated 40/12 23/16 ​
​ CEA Glucose CEA and glucose
Sensitivity 69.2% 96.2% 100%
Specificity 100% 79.5% 79.5%
PPV 100% 86.2% 86.7%
NPV 70.9% 93.9% 100%
