Abstract:: |
Objective To explore the prediction value of radiation effect on survival fraction at two grey(SF2) for bioptic tissue from nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods With fresh bioptic specimens from 46 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Out-patient Department of Tumor Center of Sun Yat-sen University,the survival fraction at 2 gray (SF2) was estimated by the method of image analysis of tissue fragment primary culture.Complete remission doses of nasopharyngeal tumor (CRD-NT),complete remission doses of metastatic cervical lymph nodes (CRD-LN),nasopharyngeal tumor regression rate at 40 gray (NTRR-40),lymph nodal regression rate at 40 Gy (LNRR-40) were assessed by computer tomography scanning and clinical physical examination.The immediate curative effect (ICE) in the patients was evaluated by physical examination and the results of CT scanning at the third month after radiotherapy. Results There were obvious correlations between SF2 and CRD-NT,NTRR-40,CRD-LN,LNRR-40.The partial correlation coefficients were 0.881 (P<0.01),-0.733(P<0.01),0.751((P<)0.01) and -0.609 (P<0.01),respectively.All the 46 cases were grouped by the median of SF2 values.Significant statistical differences of NTRR-40 (P<0.01),CRD-NT(P<0.01),LNRR-40(P<0.01),CRD-NL((P<)0.01) and ICE (P<0.01) were found between the group of SF2 values above the median and the group of SF2 values below the median.Significant statistical difference in CRD-NL (P<0.05) was found in the group of N stage. Conclusion This investigation showed that regression rate has a decreasing trend obviously along with increasing SF2 values.There is a significient correlation between the SF2 value and the immediate curative effect.These results cue that SF2 values could reflect radiation effect on tumor tissue in NPC patients to a certain extent. |
