Abstract | The main challenge in prostate cancer radiotherapy is to deliver the prescribed dose to the clinical target while minimizing the dose to the neighboring organs at risk and thus avoiding subsequent toxicity-related events. With the aim of improving toxicity prediction following prostate cancer radiotherapy, the goal of our work is to propose a new predictive variable computed with independent component analysis to predict late rectal toxicity, and to compare its performance to other models (logistic regression, normal tissue complication probability model and recent principal component analysis approach). Clinical data and dose-volume histograms were collected from 216 patients having received 3D conformal radiation for prostate cancer with at least two years of follow-up. Independent component analysis was trained to predict the risk of 3-year rectal bleeding Grade ≥ 2. The performance of all the models was assessed by computing the area under the receiving operating characteristic curve. Clinical parameters combined with the new variable were found to be predictors of rectal bleeding. The mean area under the receiving operating curve for our proposed approach was 0:75. The AUC values for the logistic regression, the Lyman-Kutcher-Burman model and the recent principal component analysis approach were 0:62, 0:53 and 0:62, respectively. Our proposed new variable may be an useful new tool in predicting late rectal toxicity. It appears as a strong predictive variable to improve classical models. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
