Cross-calibration of liquid and solid QCT calibration standards: Corrections to the UCSF normative data

Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) has been shown to be a precise and sensitive method for evaluating spinal bone mineral density (BMD) and skeletal response to aging and therapy. Precise and accurate determination of BMD using QCT requires a calibration standard to compensate for and reduce the effects of beam-hardening artifacts and scanner drift. The first standards were based on dipotassium hydrogen phosphate (K₂HPO₄) solutions. Recently, several manufacturers have developed stable solid calibration standards based on calcium hydroxyapatite (CHA) in water-equivalent plastic. Due to differences in attenuating properties of the liquid and solid standards, the calibrated BMD values obtained with each system do not agree. In order to compare and interpret the results obtained on both systems, cross-calibration measurements were performed in phantoms and patients using the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) liquid standard and the Image Analysis (IA) solid standard on the UCSF GE 9800 CT scanner. From the phantom measurements, a highly linear relationship was found between the liquid- and solid-calibrated BMD values. No influence on the cross-calibration due to simulated variations in body size or vertebral fat content was seen, though a significant difference in the cross-calibration was observed between scans acquired at 80 and 140 kVp. From the patient measurements, a linear relationship between the liquid (UCSF) and solid (IA) calibrated values was derived for GE 9800 CT scanners at 80 kVp (IA=[1.15×UCSF]-7.32). The UCSF normative database for women and men obtained with the liquid standard was corrected for use with the solid standard. Proper procedures for cross-calibrating QCT measurements and the appropriate uses of normative data are discussed.     

conference report: Mental health and intellectual disability: an international perspective

The present paper reports on the inaugural meeting of the Mental Health Special Interest Research Group (SIRG) of the International Association for the Scientific study of Intellectual disability which was held at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, UK, in March 1998. The meeting was organized in conjunction with the Ninth Annual SIRG on ageing and intellectual disability. Representatives from North America, several European and Scandinavian countries, Australia, and Israel attended. Two broad themes had been determined prior to the meeting: ‘Improving the detection of mental health problems’ and ‘Research strategies for identifying risk factors for mental health problems’. In the presentations and subsequent discussions, it was apparent that there were extrenely diverse perspectives both across and within the different countries represented. Not only were individuals' experiences very different, but most strikingly, the theoretical frameworks were very diverse. This was partly a function of there being understandable differences in perspectives across disciplines, but at its most marked, there were fundamental differences in the way both intellectual disability and mental health were conceptualized.

Comparing non-hierarchical models: Application to non-linear mixed effects modeling

There is no method available to compare the fit of two non-hierarchical non-linear mixed effects models, although the common practice is to select the model with the lower objective function. Bootstrapping the log-likelihood differences (LLDs) of non-hierarchical models and constructing a bootstrap confidence interval on the LLDs is proposed for comparing the goodness-of-fit of such models. This is illustrated with different parameterizations of clearance models for an anti-infective agent in a longitudinal pharmacokinetic study which are compared. Additive and exponential models of creatinine clearance as a predictor of clearance are used as examples.     

One hundred years of high-throughput Drosophila research

From the beginning, Drosophila was a high-throughput model organism. Unbiased and genome-wide efforts ranging from Morgan's search for spontaneous mutations and subsequent saturating loss-of-function and gain-of-function screens up to more recent techniques such as microarrays, proteomics and cellular assays have been and will continue to be the backbone of Drosophila research. Integrating these large datasets is one of the next challenges. However, once achieved, a plethora of information far exceeding the information content of the singular experiments will be revealed. Several high-throughput techniques and experimental strategies highlighting the unbiased and integrative nature of Drosophila research during the last century will be discussed.
