(2) Calculating a risk threshold value, and substituting each ready value into a Ratio1 model and a Ratio2 model to obtain a risk judgment threshold value:
Ratio1=4.8× (mature hsa-let-7a-5p/-2 nt-hsa-let-7 a-5p+ mature hsa-let-7b-5p/-2nt-hsa-let-7b-5p+ mature hsa-let-7f-5p/-2nt-hsa-let-7f-5 p) +0.6× (mature hsa-miR-122-5p/-2nt-hsa-miR-122-5 p) +2.5× (mature hsa-miR-148a-3p/-2 nt-hsa-148 a-3 p) +0.9× (mature hsa-miR-16-5p/-2nt-hsa-miR-16-5 p) +0.2. 0.7× (mature hsa-miR-191-5p/-2nt-hsa-miR-191-5 p) + (mature hsa-miR-223-3p/-2nt-hsa-miR-223-3 p) +1.8× (mature hsa-miR-26a-5p/-2nt-hsa-miR-26a-5 p) +3.6× (mature hsa-miR-27b-3p/-2nt-hsa-miR-27b-3 p) +5.6× (mature hsa-miR-30d-5p/-2nt-miR-30d-5p+ mature hsa-miR-30e-5p/-2 nt-miR-30 e-5 p) +8.0× Mature hsa-miR-423-5p/-2nt-hsa-miR-423-5 p) +0.3× (mature hsa-miR-93-3p/-2nt-hsa-miR-93-3 p) +0.5× (mature hsa-miR-9-3p/-2nt-hsa-miR-9-3 p);
The formula of mature hsa-let-7a-5p/-2 nt-hsa-let-7 a-5p refers to the ratio of reads of mature body miRNAhsa-let-7a-5p to reads of an isomer lacking 2 nucleotides (-2 nt) at its 3' end, other ratios are similarly understood;

The present embodiment provides an early diagnosis method for hepatoblastoma of an infant, comprising the steps of:
(1) The ready value of miRNA in exosomes and its isoforms was obtained as in example 1.
(2) Calculating a risk threshold value, and substituting each ready value into the Ratio2 model to obtain a risk judgment threshold value:
(3) The infant HB risk is judged based on the Ratio2, if the Ratio2 is more than or equal to 10.92, the infant to be diagnosed is judged to be HB high risk, if the Ratio2 is less than or equal to 7.22, the infant to be diagnosed is judged to be HB low risk, and if the Ratio2 is 7.22< 10.92, the infant cannot be judged, and the follow-up visit is recommended.
Example 3
Specific application of the risk screening method provided in example 1:
At the 30 week gestation stage, 924 pregnant women's plasma exosomes derived mirnas were sequenced by NGS method and reports were generated based on the Ratio1+ Ratio2 model (risk screening method of example 1), predicting the low risk 896 cases of fetal HB, and follow-up at 1 and 2 years post-natal. The 28 high-risk cases of fetal HB are predicted, and follow-up is performed 6 months after birth for the 28 newborns, wherein 3 children have atypical symptoms such as abdominal pain, and 25 children have no HB symptoms. Sequencing of these 3 children with atypical symptoms and generation of reports based on Ratio2 model suggested high risk, and diagnosis of HB within 1 year of age, stage I clinical stage, and complete tumor elimination by surgery. 25 asymptomatic children re-sequenced plasma exosome-derived mirnas at 1 year old and generated reports based on the Ratio2 model, 16 of which suggested high risk and 9 low risk. The 9 children with low risk of detection report remained healthy without any HB symptom manifestation at the time of follow-up at 2 years of age. High risk 16 children were followed by 2 years of age, 13 had stage I HB confirmed by clinical diagnosis, the tumor did not progress, and complete elimination was achieved by surgery. The other 3 children stopped the follow-up endpoint and remained healthy without any HB symptom manifestations.
The positive predictive value of the Ratio1+ratio2 model (risk screening method of example 1) for fetal HB infant reached 57.14% and the negative predictive value within 24 months reached 100% (model was not followed up to 3 years old). The Ratio2 model (early diagnosis of example 2) had a positive predictive value of 84.21% for postnatal HB infants and a negative predictive value of 100% within 24 months (the model was not followed up to 3 years). More importantly, the HB infants with positive detection report are in the early stage of HB due to good risk management, and the prognosis after treatment is very good. Table 1 shows the prediction results and the follow-up diagnosis results, and fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the detection flow of this embodiment.
TABLE 1
Example 4
This example provides an application of the early diagnosis method of example 2
127 Cases of HB infants with definite diagnosis are grouped, 281 cases of liver benign tumor and 408 cases of inflammatory infants. Specific information is shown in table 2.
TABLE 2
Of these, the HB group contained 121 cases I and 6 cases II, and no hepatoblastoma metastasis occurred. The sensitivity and specificity of the method for early HB differential diagnosis were assessed by plasma exosome-derived microRNA NGS sequencing data and fluorescent PCR technology platform quantitative data on mature and isomeric forms of 15 microRNAs, respectively, using the method of example 2, and comparison of NGS method and fluorescent PCR method was performed by AUC value of ROC curve. ROC curves were generated with Ratio2 for 408 samples each (see fig. 2), where NGS method AUC was 0.999 (95% confidence interval 0.999-1.000), sensitivity 98.9%, specificity 99.2%, qPCR method AUC was 0.950 (95% confidence interval 0.930-0.970), sensitivity 85.4%, specificity 92.9%. The above results demonstrate that the early diagnostic method of example 2 has higher specificity and sensitivity.
The above description is only of the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention, but various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
