目的 基于磁共振成像(magnetic resonance imaging,MRI)影像组学和临床特征构建鼻咽癌(nasopharyngeal cancer,NPC)患者放疗后鼻咽坏死(nasopharyngeal necrosis after radiotherapy,PRNN)的nomogram预测模型。方法 收集梅州市人民医院2017年1月至2023年10月243例NPC患者作为研究对象,按照8∶2比例分为训练集(n=194)、测试集(n=49)。所有NPC患者均接受放疗,训练集根据患者是否出现PRNN,分为PRNN组(n=57)、无PRNN组(n=137)。比较训练集中两组患者临床资料,LASSO回归筛选MRI影像组学特征,构建影像组学评分,多因素Logistic回归分析NPC患者发生PRNN的影响因素,构建训练集、测试集nomogram预测模型,采用受试者工作特征曲线(receiver operating characteristic curve,ROC)、校准曲线和决策曲线(decision curve analysis,DCA)曲线评估预测模型效能。结果 无PRNN组与PRNN组患者年龄、体质量指数(body mass index,BMI)、AJCC-T分期、二程放疗比较,差异具有统计学意义;LASSO回归筛选获取35个影像组学特征,计算影像组学评分;多因素logistic回归显示,年龄、BMI、AJCC-T分期、二程放疗及影像组学评分是NPC患者发生PRNN的影响因素;将年龄、BMI、AJCC-T分期、二程放疗作为临床模型,影像组学评分作为影像组学模型,年龄、BMI、AJCC-T分期、二程放疗及影像组评分作为组合模型,用于构建nomogram预测模型;ROC曲线、校准曲线及DCA曲线显示,测试集和训练集中组合预测模型具有明显临床净收益和良好预测效能。结论 年龄、BMI、AJCC-T分期、二程放疗及影像组学评分是NPC患者PRNN的影响因素,根据上述因素构建的nomogram预测模型具有良好预测效能和临床适用性。
Abstract
Objective To construct a nomogram prediction model for nasopharyngeal necrosis after radiotherapy (PRNN) in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) based on MRI radiomics and clinical features. Methods 243 cases of NPC from Meizhou People's Hospital from January 2017 to October 2023 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into the training set (n=194) and the test set (n=49) in a ratio of 8∶2. All NPC patients received radiotherapy. The training set was divided into the PRNN group (n=57) and the non-PRNN group (n=137) based on whether the patients presented with PRNN. By comparing the clinical data of the two groups of patients in the training set, LASSO regression was used to screen the MRI imaging features, and an imaging feature score was constructed. Nomogram prediction models for the training set and test set were constructed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the influencing factors of PRNN occurrence in NPC patients. Nomogram prediction models for the training set and test set were constructed. Evaluate the performance of the prediction model using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) curve. Result There were statistically significant differences in age, body mass index (BMI), AJCC-T stage, and the second course of radiotherapy between the non-PRNN group and the PRNN group. LASSO regression was used to screen for 35 radiomics features, and the radiomics score was calculated. Multivariate Logistic regression showed that age, BMI, AJCC-T stage, second course of radiotherapy, and radiomics score were the influencing factors for PRNN in NPC patients. Age, BMI, AJCC-T stage, second course of radiotherapy, and radiomics score were used as the clinical model, and the radiomics score as the radiomics model. Age, BMI, AJCC-T stage, second course of radiotherapy, and radiomics score were used as the combined model to construct a nomogram prediction model. ROC curve, calibration curve, and DCA curve showed that the combined prediction model in the test set and training set had significant clinical net benefits and good predictive efficacy. Conclusion Age, BMI, AJCC-T stage, second course of radiotherapy, and radiomics score were the influencing factors for PRNN in NPC patients. The nomogram prediction model constructed based on the above factors had good predictive efficacy and clinical applicability.
