OBJECTIVE
To develop and validate a nomogram to predict epilepsy in patients with radiation-induced brain necrosis (RN).
METHODS
The nomogram was based on a retrospective analysis of 302 patients who were diagnosed with symptomatic RN from January 2005 to January 2016 in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital using the Cox proportional hazards model. Discrimination of the nomogram was assessed by the concordance index ( index) and the calibration curve. The results were internally validated using bootstrap resampling and externally validated using 128 patients with RN from 2 additional hospitals.
RESULTS
A total of 302 patients with RN with a median follow-up of 3.43 years (interquartile range 2.54-5.45) were included in the training cohort; 65 (21.5%) developed symptomatic epilepsy during follow-up. Seven variables remained significant predictors of epilepsy after multivariable analyses: MRI lesion volume, creatine phosphokinase, the maximum radiation dose to the temporal lobe, RN treatment, history of hypertension and/or diabetes, sex, and total cholesterol level. In the validation cohort, 28 out of 128 (21.9%) patients had epilepsy after RN within a median follow-up of 3.2 years. The nomogram showed comparable discrimination between the training and validation cohort (corrected index 0.76 [training] vs 0.72 [95% confidence interval 0.62-0.81; validation]).
CONCLUSION
Our study developed an easily applied nomogram for the prediction of RN-related epilepsy in a large RN cohort.
CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE
This study provides Class III evidence that a nomogram predicts post-RN epilepsy.
目的
开发并验证一种列线图，以预测放射性脑坏死（RN）患者的癫痫发作。
方法
该列线图基于 2005 年 1 月至 2016 年 1 月期间在中山大学孙逸仙纪念医院因症状性 RN 而诊断的 302 例患者的回顾性分析，采用 Cox 比例风险模型。通过一致性指数（index）和校准曲线来评估列线图的区分度。通过自举重采样对内进行验证，通过来自另外 2 家医院的 128 例 RN 患者进行外部验证。
结果
共纳入 302 例 RN 患者，中位随访时间为 3.43 年（四分位间距 2.54-5.45），在训练队列中；65 例（21.5%）在随访期间发生症状性癫痫。多变量分析后，有 7 个变量仍然是癫痫的显著预测因素：MRI 病变体积、肌酸磷酸激酶、颞叶最大辐射剂量、RN 治疗、高血压和/或糖尿病史、性别和总胆固醇水平。在验证队列中，128 例患者中有 28 例（21.9%）在 RN 后中位随访 3.2 年内发生癫痫。列线图在训练组和验证组之间显示出相当的区分度（校正 index 0.76[训练]与 0.72[95%置信区间 0.62-0.81；验证]）。
结论
本研究在大型 RN 队列中开发了一种易于应用的列线图，用于预测 RN 相关癫痫。
证据分类
本研究提供了 III 级证据，表明列线图预测 RN 后癫痫。
