Trial Title: The Diagnostic Value of Nitrogen Element (N) in Esophagus Cancer

NCT ID: NCT05494359

Condition: Esophageal Cancer

Conditions: Official terms:
Esophageal Neoplasms

Conditions: Keywords:
Esophageal cancer
Nitrogen isotope
Diagnosis

Study type: Observational

Overall status: Recruiting

Study design:

Time perspective: Prospective

Intervention:

Intervention type: Diagnostic Test
Intervention name: The nitrogen isotope
Description: The nitrogen isotope of various mass in oral gas were detected.
Arm group label: ESCA group
Arm group label: Health control
Arm group label: Reflux esophagitis

Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic value of various nitrogen isotopes(N) in oral gas for esophagus cancer (ESCA) .

Detailed description: Less effective diagnostic markers for ESCA can be used in present. Nitrogen elements include a variety of nitrogen isotopes with various mass. Stable nitrogen isotope ratios 15 Nitrogen/14 Nitrogen (15 N/14 N) are of particular advantage to understand the metabolic state of cancer cells, since most biochemical reactions involve transfer of nitrogen. Cancerous cells can recycle metabolic ammonium for their growth . The recycling of this ammonium with a low nitrogen isotope ratio (15 N/14 N) may cause cancer tissue to have lower 15 N/14 N than surrounding healthy tissue, and it could diagnose malignancy as well as an avenue for investigation of cancer metabolism. However, the relationship and diagnostic value between nitrogen excretion from oral gas and ESCA remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to analyze the diagnostic value of various mass nitrogen isotope excreting for oral gas for ESCA.
