Results from archived (1986 and 1996) experiments were used to establish a baboon radiation-quality dose-response database with haematology biomarker time-course data following exposure to mixed-fields (i.e. neutron to gamma ratio: 5.5; dose: 0-8 Gy) and 60Co gamma-ray exposures (0-15 Gy). Time-course (i.e. 0-40 d) haematology changes for relevant blood-cell types for both mixed-field (neutron to gamma ratio = 5.5) and gamma ray alone were compared and models developed that showed significant differences using the maximum likehood ratio test. A consensus METREPOL-like haematology ARS (H-ARS) severity scoring system for baboons was established using these results. The data for mixed-field and the gamma only cohorts appeared similar, and so the cohorts were pooled into a single consensus H-ARS severity scoring system. These findings provide proof-of-concept for the use of a METREPOL H-ARS severity scoring system following mixed-field and gamma exposures.
利用存档（1986年和1996年）实验的结果，建立了一个狒狒辐射质量剂量反应数据库，其中包含暴露于混合场（即中子与γ射线比率：5.5；剂量：0 - 8 Gy）和60Co γ射线照射（0 - 15 Gy）后血液学生物标志物的时间进程数据。比较了混合场（中子与γ射线比率 = 5.5）和单独γ射线照射下相关血细胞类型的时间进程（即0 - 40天）血液学变化，并建立了模型，通过最大似然比检验显示出显著差异。利用这些结果建立了狒狒的共识性类METREPOL血液学急性放射病（H - ARS）严重程度评分系统。混合场和仅γ射线照射队列的数据看起来相似，因此将这些队列合并为一个单一的共识性H - ARS严重程度评分系统。这些发现为混合场和γ射线照射后使用METREPOL H - ARS严重程度评分系统提供了概念验证。
