Multiple spike-train analysis using mutual interval matrix

The principal-component approach is applied to the analysis of sequences of neuronal action potentials (spike trains). Multiple spike trains are represented as a sequence of vectors of mutual interspike intervals and are considered to be part of the trajectory of a dynamic system. The trajectory matrix is decomposed into a number of ‘basic spike patterns’ and their relative magnitudes by singular-value decomposition. The representation provides a convenient framework for analysis of dynamic relations and cooperation between neurons in an observed network. Examples of applications to simulated and cerebellar data are presented.

Adjuvant radiotherapy in carcinomas of the uterine cervix: the prognostic value of hemoglobin levels

Anemia has been associated with a poorer treatment response and reduced survival in women undergoing primary radiotherapy (RT) or radiochemotherapy for advanced cervical carcinoma. This study aimed to determine the influence of anemia on outcome in patients with cervical carcinoma undergoing adjuvant RT. Medical records were reviewed for 183 cervical cancer patients who had received adjuvant RT because of risk factors after radical surgery (n= 109) or inadequate primary surgery (simple hysterectomy; n= 74). Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to study hemoglobin levels before and during adjuvant RT in relation to recurrence-free and overall survival. Hemoglobin values > or =11 g/dL were considered normal, while those <11 g/dL indicated anemia. Hemoglobin levels before RT influenced significantly overall survival and recurrence-free survival across the whole group (overall survival--log rank(all patients)= 7.5; df = 1; P= 0.006). However, subgroup analysis showed that the observed difference was mainly due to the group of women who had undergone inadequate primary surgery (overall survival--log rank(inadequate surgery)= 10.8; df = 1; P= 0.001). Multifactorial regression analyses comparing hemoglobin before RT with grading and tumor stage confirmed the prognostic value of hemoglobin values. Maintaining normal hemoglobin values before and during adjuvant RT seems to be important, especially in patients who have had inappropriate simple hysterectomy, which may resemble a therapeutic situation.     

Prognostic index to identify patients who may not benefit from whole brain radiotherapy for multiple brain metastases from lung cancer

Palliative whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) is often recommended in the management of multiple brain metastases. Allowing for WBRT waiting time, duration of the WBRT course and time to clinical response, it may take 6 weeks from the point of initial assessment for a benefit from WBRT to manifest. Patients who die within 6 weeks (‘early death’) may not benefit from WBRT and may instead experience a decline in quality of life. This study aimed to develop a prognostic index (PI) that identifies the subset of patients with lung cancer with multiple brain metastases who may not benefit from WBRT because of ‘early death’. The medical records of patients with lung cancer who had WBRT recommended for multiple brain metastases over a 10-year period were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were classified as either having died within 6 weeks or having lived beyond 6 weeks. Potential prognostic indicators were evaluated for correlation with ‘early death’. A PI was constructed by modelling the survival classification to determine the contribution of these factors towards shortened survival. Of the 275 patients recommended WBRT, 64 (23.22%) died within 6 weeks. The main prognostic factor predicting early death was Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status >2. Patients with a high PI score (>13) were at higher risk of ‘early death’. Twenty-three per cent of patients died prior to benefit from WBRT. ECOG status was the most predictive for ‘early death’. Other factors may also contribute towards a poor outcome. With further refinement and validation, the PI could be a valuable clinical decision tool.     

肺灌注显像在Ⅲ期非小细胞肺癌调强放疗中对功能肺的保护

目的 探讨肺灌注显像在Ⅲ期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)调强放疗(IMRT)保护功能肺的可行性。方法 选择拟行放疗的Ⅲ期NSCLC患者24例,分别行PET-CT和SPECT定位,图像传至治疗计划系统进行图像融合。根据SPECT图像确定功能肺(FL)和非功能肺(NFL),FL是指放射性计数为最大放射性计数的30%以上(包括30%)的区域,其他区域为NFL。肺灌注受损分为4级:0级,无灌注受损;1级,肿瘤及其周围局部肺灌注受损;2级,达1叶肺灌注受损;3级,超过1叶肺灌注受损。根据SPECT图像提供的肺功能信息制定IMRT计划进行优化,尽可能降低FL的照射体积剂量。采用配对t检验统计分析优化前后的IMRT计划的肺组织剂量参数变化。结果 患者均有不同程度的肺灌注缺损,其中肺灌注受损1级8例,2级6例,3级10例。根据SPECT提供的肺功能信息优化IMRT计划后WLV和FLV均有不同程度降低,而FLV降低程度更加明显。优化后WLV₁₀、WLV₁₅、WLV₂₀、WLV₂₅、WLV₃₀和FLV₁₀、FLV₁₅、FLV₂₀、FLV₂₅、FLV₃₀差异有统计学意义。结论 根据SPECT图像提供的肺功能信息优化IMRT计划以保护Ⅲ期NSCLC功能肺是可行的。
