Implementing the Point Spread Function Deconvolution for Better Molecular Characterization of Newly Diagnosed Gliomas: A Dynamic <sup>18</sup>F-FDOPA PET Radiomics Study
Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effects of applying the point spread function deconvolution (PSFd) to the radiomics analysis of dynamic L-3,4-dihydroxy-6-[18F]-fluoro-phenyl-alanine (18F-FDOPA) positron emission tomography (PET) images, to non-invasively identify isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutated and/or 1p/19q codeleted gliomas. Methods: Fifty-seven newly diagnosed glioma patients underwent dynamic 18F-FDOPA imaging on the same digital PET system. All images were reconstructed with and without PSFd. An L1-penalized (Lasso) logistic regression model, with 5-fold cross-validation and 20 repetitions, was trained with radiomics features extracted from the static tumor-to-background-ratio (TBR) and dynamic time-to-peak (TTP) parametric images, as well as a combination of both. Feature importance was assessed using Shapley additive explanation values. Results: The PSFd significantly modified 95% of TBR, but only 79% of TTP radiomics features. Applying the PSFd significantly improved the ability to identify IDH-mutated and/or 1p/19q codeleted gliomas, compared to PET images not processed with PSFd, with respective areas under the curve of 0.83 versus 0.79 and 0.75 versus 0.68 for a combination of static and dynamic radiomics features (p 18F-FDOPA PET imaging significantly improves the detection of molecular parameters in newly diagnosed gliomas, most notably by modifying TBR radiomics features
Do boys have the same intentions to get the HPV vaccine as girls? Knowledge, attitudes, and intentions in France
International audienceBackground: The vaccine coverage against human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination remains low in France. The objective of this study was to study adolescent perceptions by comparing boys and girls, in order to build effective school-based interventions.Methods: This paper presents a cross-sectional study in French middle school pupils. They completed online questionnaires on their knowledge and attitudes toward the HPV vaccine, HPV vaccination status, their intention, reasons to vaccinate or not to vaccinate, and psychological antecedents of vaccination. A structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis was used to test the hypothesized model.Results: The participants are 818 pupils aged from 12 to 16 years (Mage = 13.78). Most pupils were in the pre-contemplative stage (62.7 % of boys and 40.8 % of girls). SEM analysis indicated that the relationship between the level of HPV knowledge, the representations of vaccines in general, and vaccine intention was mediated by attitudes towards the HPV vaccine among both boys and girls.Conclusions: These findings reveal a high percentage of boys who do not feel concerned by the HPV vaccine and highlight the need to consider the psychological antecedents of vaccination in general in addition to the specific attitudes to the HPV vaccine
