A new score including CD43 and CD180: Increased diagnostic value for atypical chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

ABSTRACT: Moreau score has been used to differentiate chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) from other mature B-cell neoplasms. However, it showed limitations in Asian patients. Therefore, we conducted a new score system replacing CD5 and CD23 with CD43 and CD180 to evaluate its diagnostic value of CLL. 237 untreated samples diagnosed with mature B-cell neoplasms were collected and were randomly divided into an exploratory and a validation cohort by a 2:1 ratio. The expression of CD5, CD19, CD20, CD23, CD43, CD79b, CD180, CD200, FMC7, and surface immunoglobulin (SmIg) were analyzed among all the samples. A proposed score was developed based on the logistic regression model. The sensitivity and specificity of the proposed score were calculated by ROC curves. CD43/CD180, CD200, FMC7, and CD79b were inclu
