A simulation study of three sequential methods for the comparison of two treatment groups when the response criterion is censored

Three recent sequential methods, group sequential analysis (GSA), the sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) and the triangular test (TT) are well suited to randomized clinical trials with a censored response criterion, as they do not require matched pairs of patients. We undertook a simulation study to investigate their statistical properties and to compare these three methods with the fixed-sample design. Our results suggest that the three methods have the expected statistical properties for size and power; they allow an important reduction of the average number of events before stopping, except with GSA when there is no treatment difference; the triangular test (closed design) appears the optimal design, as the variance of the number of events is smaller than with the sequential probability ratio test (open design) and analysis after every twenty new events does not alter the statistical properties of these sequential methods and enhances their usefulness.     

标化比例死亡比分析在筛检恶性肿瘤高发人群中的应用

在筛检肿瘤高危险人群过程中,应用标化比例死亡比(SPMR)的分析方法,研究了两个工厂全肿瘤和肺癌的发生状况,并用标化死亡比(SMR)的方法验证SPMR的结论。结果表明,两种方法分析结果均一致性显示全肿瘤和肺癌在两工厂中的死亡率显著高于当地居民。由于SPMR分析资料极易获得,分析方法又较SMR简便易行,适用于基层实际工作中对各种疾病死亡状况进行病因学分析。     

紫外分光光度法同时测定增效黄连素胶囊中二组分含量

本文提出以紫外分光光度法测定增效黄连素胶囊含量。样品经乙醇溶解、水稀释后，不经分离提取，直接在３４６ｎｍ波长处测定盐酸黄连素；在３４６ｎｍ和２７１ｎｍ波长处以系数倍率法测定甲氧苄氨嘧啶，测得二组分的平均回收率分别为９９．１％和９９．６％，相对标准偏差为０．６７％和０．８２％（ｎ＝９）．本法简便，快速，适用于增效黄连素胶囊的常规分析．     

Nd：YAG激光对牙本质钙／磷比值的影响

为探讨Ｎｄ：ＹＡＧ激光对牙本质矿物含量的影响，应用扫描电镜和能谱仪定点测量５０个上前牙标本的根管壁（激光照射工和正常对比区）的钙、磷含量，结果表明，照射区牙本质钙／磷（Ｃａ／Ｐ）比值高于对比区，当激光能量达１５Ｗ以上时变化更为显著，提示Ｎｄ：ＹＡＧ激光能提高牙本质的钙化程度。     

The estrous cycle affects cocaine self-administration on a progressive ratio schedule in rats

Although it has been demonstrated that many of the behavioral responses to psychomotor stimulants are gender dependent and hormonally sensitive, few studies have examined the possibility that the estrous cycle interacts with drug reinforcement in laboratory animals. The present experiment assessed the effect of the estrous cycle on two aspects of cocaine self-administration behavior: the breaking point on a progressive ratio (PR) schedule and the rate of cocaine intake on a fixed ratio one (FR1) schedule. On the PR schedule, the first lever response produced a drug infusion. Subsequent response requirements escalated with each injection until the behavior extinguished. Breaking points were defined as the final ratio completed. On a FR1 schedule, the estrous cycle had no effect on the rate of drug intake. On a PR schedule, female rats reached higher breaking points during estrus than during other stages of the estrous cycle. Furthermore, female rats displayed higher breaking points than male rats. It appears that the estrous cycle influences an animal's motivation to self-administer cocaine.     

INFLUENCE OF DIET ON FATTY ACID COMPOSITION OF RED CELL AND NEURAL MEMBRANES

用秩和比法对我院的10个公示病种医疗质量进行综合评价

目的对我院2005年度公示的10个病种进行医疗质量综合评价。方法采用秩和比法(RSR)进行统计分析。结果我院的10个公示病种被划分成4个医疗质量等级:老年性白内障、小儿支气管肺炎2个病种质量为优,急性阑尾炎、腹股沟疝(单侧)、子宫平滑肌瘤、剖宫产4个病种质量为良,胃大切、脑梗塞、急性心肌梗塞3个病种质量为中,脑出血1个病种质量为差。结论通过对综合指数秩和比(RSR)的计算并根据其值分级归档,反映出所研究病种之间存在着医疗质量高低的差异。控制和降低本院临床常见病种的医药费用,进行医疗全程连续性控制,为患者提供经济有效的医疗服务。     

The complex enterprise of modelling prenatal exposure to cigarettes: what is ‘enough’?

While there is a burgeoning body of research linking smoking during pregnancy to problem behaviour in offspring, a major criticism of this work has been the crude measurement of exposure in these studies (e.g. retrospective, self-reported only) that could lead to biased estimates. To address this issue, we used a pregnancy cohort with repeated prospective measures of exposure as well as biological assays to generate estimates of exposure patterns using a range of modelling techniques. In this paper we report on the analytical approaches we have developed, including patterns of exposure over time and best-estimate approaches that combine self-report and cotinine measures, and compare their predictive value in relation to different dimensions of fetal growth as a first step towards examining the utility of greater precision of exposure measurement.
Surprisingly, in this sample the more complex assessments of exposure, including biological measures, generally did not perform better than simple indicators of exposure based on repeated self-report measures, with one exception: a combined self-report cotinine 'best estimate' of third trimester exposure was uniquely associated with lower brain : body ratio. Further study is needed using more sophisticated cotinine assays and testing prediction of a range of outcomes to ascertain whether these findings represent true differences or are specific to the sample, methods and outcomes used. Such research will inform the development of guidelines for adequate exposure characterisation in developmental studies.
