Establishment of Reference Interval for <scp>CA72</scp> ‐4 in Healthy Adults in Shenzhen, China
An upper reference limit of 8.5 U/mL for CA72-4 in Shenzhen healthy adults-higher than the manufacturer's value-reduces false positives in health screening. Slight age-related increases suggest cautious interpretation in the elderly. This study provides an important reference for region-specific tumor marker intervals in Shenzhen and similar populations.
