Abstract
The diagnosis and prognostication of glioblastoma (GBM) remain to be solely dependent on histopathological findings and few molecular markers, despite the clinical heterogeneity in this entity. To address this issue, we investigated the prognostic impact of copy number alterations (CNAs) using two population-based IDH-wild-type GBM cohorts: an original Japanese cohort and a dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The molecular disproportions between these cohorts were dissected in light of cohort differences in GBM. The Japanese cohort was collected from cases registered in Kansai Molecular Diagnosis Network for CNS tumors (KNBTG). The somatic landscape around CNAs was analyzed for 212 KNBTG cases and 359 TCGA cases. Next, the clinical impacts of CNA profiles were investigated for 140 KNBTG cases and 152 TCGA cases treated by standard adjuvant therapy using temozolomide-based chemoradiation. The comparative profiling indicated unequal distribution of specific CNAs such as EGFR, CDKN2A, and PTEN among the two cohorts. Especially, the triple overlap CNAs in these loci (triple CNA) were much higher in frequency in TCGA (70.5%) than KNBTG (24.3%), and its prognostic impact was independently validated in both cohorts. The KNBTG cohort significantly showed better prognosis than the TCGA cohort (median overall survival 19.3 vs 15.6 months). This survival difference between the two cohorts completely resolved after subclassifying all cases according to the triple CNA status. The prognostic significance of triple CNA was identified in IDH-wild-type GBM. Distribution difference in prognostic CNA profiles potentially could cause survival differences across cohorts in clinical studies.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of re-irradiation with salvage stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) for recurrent glioma using CyberKnife. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study retrospectively investigated 35 patients with 48 recurrent grade 2-4 gliomas who received SRT between 1998 and 2011. Six patients (17.1%) had grade 2 gliomas, nine (25.7%) had grade 3 gliomas, and 20 (57.1%) had glioblastomas; all initially underwent surgery and conventional radiotherapy. The median initial and subsequent radiotherapy doses were 60 and 26 Gy, respectively. RESULTS After a median follow-up period of 9.0 months, the only toxicity of grade 2 or more was radiation-induced brain necrosis in four patients (11.4%). The median overall and progression-free survival periods following re-irradiation were 9.0 and 3.0 months, respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that performance status at salvage re-irradiation was a significant predictor of progression-free survival. CONCLUSION Salvage re-irradiation using CyberKnife is feasible, with an acceptable toxicity profile, for patients with recurrent glioma.

Abstract
Recent studies have revealed that the immunological function of leukocytes is dependent on their cellular metabolism, and some researchers have advocated the beneficial effects of pioglitazone against sepsis in young mice, although bacterial infections are more prevalent in elderly hosts. Here, we investigated pioglitazone’s preventative effect against sepsis induced by intravenous injection of a lethal dose of Escherichia coli in elderly mice (50–60 wk old) and examined its immunological and metabolic effects on liver leukocytes. Pioglitazone improved bacterial elimination in the peripheral blood, lowered serum pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-12, IFN-γ), and prevented septic death. It also enhanced bacterial elimination in the liver, by increasing the phagocytic and bactericidal activities of liver F4/80+CD11b+ recruited macrophages (Mφ), their CD206 expression and reactive oxygen species production. Quantitative PCR revealed that pioglitazone treatment enhanced gene expression of rate-limiting enzymes for glycolysis in hepatic CD11b+ cells (including neutrophils and recruited Mφ), and their improved phagocytic and bactericidal activities were abolished by glycolysis inhibiting reagents. These findings present the possibility that pioglitazone strengthens the phagocytic and bactericidal activities of liver recruited Mφ and that these immunological activities are closely associated with their glucose catabolism.

Abstract
The publication of the 2016 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (2016 WHO CNS) represented a major change in the classification of brain tumors. However, many pathologists in Japan cannot diagnose astrocytic or oligodendroglial tumors according to the 2016 WHO CNS due to financial or technical problems. Therefore, the Japan Society of Brain Tumor Pathology established a committee for molecular diagnosis to facilitate the integrated diagnosis of astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors in Japan. We created three levels of diagnoses: Level 1 was defined as simple histopathological diagnosis using hematoxylin and eosin staining and routine cell lineage-based immunostaining. Level 2 was defined as immunohistochemical diagnosis using immunohistochemical examinations using R132H mutation-specific IDH1, ATRX, and/or p53 antibodies. Level 3 was defined as molecular diagnosis, such as diagnosis based on 1p/19q status or the mutation status of the IDH1 and IDH2 genes. In principle, astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors should be diagnosed based on the 2016 WHO CNS and/or cIMPACT-NOW criteria; however, the findings obtained through our diagnostic flowchart can be added to the histological diagnosis in parentheses. This classification system would be helpful for pathologists with limited resources.

Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRs) regulate many biological processes, such as invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Glioblastoma (GBM) patients with metastasis/metastatic dissemination have a very poor prognosis; therefore, inhibiting metastasis/metastatic dissemination has become an important therapeutic strategy for GBM treatment. METHODS Using 76 GBM tissues, we examined the expression levels of 23 GBM-related miRs and compared the miRs' expression levels between GBMs with metastasis/metastatic dissemination and GBMs without metastasis/metastatic dissemination. Using the bioinformatics web site, we searched the target genes of miRs. To analyze the function of target gene, several biological assays and survival analysis by the Kaplan-Meier method were performed. RESULTS We found that eight miRs were significantly decreased in GBM with metastasis/metastatic dissemination. By the bioinformatics analysis, we identified stanniocalcin-1 (STC1) as the most probable target gene against the combination of these miRs. Four miRs (miR-29B, miR-34a, miR-101, and miR-137) have predictive binding sites in STC1 mRNA, and mRNA expression of STC1 was downregulated by mimics of these miRs. Also, mimics of these miRs and knockdown of STC1 by siRNA suppressed invasion in GBM cells. GBM with metastasis/metastatic dissemination had significantly higher levels of STC1 than GBM without metastasis/metastatic dissemination. Finally, Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that GBMs with high STC1 level had significantly shorter survival than GBMs with low STC1 level. CONCLUSIONS STC1 may be a novel metastasis/metastatic dissemination promoting factor regulated by several miRs in GBM. Because STC1 is a secreted glycoprotein and functions via the autocrine/paracrine signals, inhibiting STC1 signal may become a novel therapeutic strategy for GBM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We report the outcomes of carotid artery stenting for patients with angiographically visible occipital artery-vertebral artery anastomosis. METHODS Among 47 consecutive patients who underwent carotid artery stenting from January 2007 to December 2010, seven patients for whom cerebral angiograms clearly showed occipital artery-vertebral artery anastomosis were selected. Four different protection methods were used: distal internal carotid artery protection; carotid flow reversal; seatbelt and airbag technique; and double protection method of protecting both the external and internal carotid artery. RESULTS One patient with distal internal carotid artery protection showed a high-intensity lesion at the border of the upper thalamus, internal capsule and lateral ventricle wall after carotid artery stenting. The other patient with the double protection method did not show any high-intensity lesions on postoperative diffusion-weighted imaging in the vertebrobasilar territory. All seven patients with visible occipital artery-vertebral artery anastomosis showed ipsilateral vertebral artery severe stenosis or occlusion. CONCLUSION Large occipital artery-vertebral artery anastomosis may be a pathway for embolic materials during carotid artery stenting. External carotid artery protection is recommended for carotid artery stenting in such patients.

Abstract
Stem cell transplantation is expected to be an effective early-phase treatment for deep burn injuries and intractable ulcers. Localizing and proliferating stem cells on the lesion utilizing engineered scaffolds is important for this treatment. In this study, we demonstrated in situ transplantation of adipose-tissue derived stem cells (ASCs) organized on free-standing porous polymer ultrathin films (referred to as "porous nanosheets") to a skin defect model in diabetic mice. Porous nanosheets were prepared by a combination of micro-gravure coating with macrophase separation of poly(d,l-lactic acid) and polystyrene under a roll-to-roll process and solvent etching process with cyclohexane. The permeable structure of porous nanosheets (thickness of 150 nm, average pore diameter of 4 μm) allowed for proliferation of ASCs and also provided sufficient nutrient inflow into multilayered ASC constructs. Then, transplantation of a trilayered ASC-laden porous nanosheet achieved homogeneous transference of ASCs onto the skin lesion. Transplanted ASCs contributed to wound healing in a dorsal skin defect model in diabetic mice. Thus, cell transplantation using porous nanosheets will be a new method for promoting wound healing in diabetic and other kinds of refractory ulcers. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Molecular biological characterization of tumors has become a pivotal procedure for glioma patient care. The aim of this study is to build conventional MRI-based radiomics model to predict genetic alterations within grade II/III gliomas attempting to implement lesion location information in the model to improve diagnostic accuracy. One-hundred and ninety-nine grade II/III gliomas patients were enrolled. Three molecular subtypes were identified: IDH1/2-mutant, IDH1/2-mutant with TERT promoter mutation, and IDH-wild type. A total of 109 radiomics features from 169 MRI datasets and location information from 199 datasets were extracted. Prediction modeling for genetic alteration was trained via LASSO regression for 111 datasets and validated by the remaining 58 datasets. IDH mutation was detected with an accuracy of 0.82 for the training set and 0.83 for the validation set without lesion location information. Diagnostic accuracy improved to 0.85 for the training set and 0.87 for the validation set when lesion location information was implemented. Diagnostic accuracy for predicting 3 molecular subtypes of grade II/III gliomas was 0.74 for the training set and 0.56 for the validation set with lesion location information implemented. Conventional MRI-based radiomics is one of the most promising strategies that may lead to a non-invasive diagnostic technique for molecular characterization of grade II/III gliomas.

Abstract
Introduction This study investigates the current state of clinical practice and molecular analysis for elderly patients with diffuse gliomas and aims to elucidate treatment outcomes and prognostic factors of patients with glioblastomas. Methods We collected elderly cases (≥ 70 years) diagnosed with primary diffuse gliomas and enrolled in Kansai Molecular Diagnosis Network for CNS Tumors. Clinical and pathological characteristics were analyzed retrospectively. Various factors were evaluated in univariate and multivariate models to examine their effects on overall survival. Results Included in the study were 140 elderly patients (WHO grade II: 7, III: 19, IV: 114), median age was 75 years. Sixty-seven patients (47.9%) had preoperative Karnofsky Performance Status score of ≥ 80. All patients underwent resection (gross-total: 20.0%, subtotal: 14.3%, partial: 39.3%, biopsy: 26.4%). Ninety-six of the patients (68.6%) received adjuvant treatment consisting of radiotherapy (RT) with temozolomide (TMZ). Seventy-eight of the patients (75.0%) received radiation dose of ≥ 50 Gy. MGMT promoter was methylated in 68 tumors (48.6%), IDH1/2 was wild-type in 129 tumors (92.1%), and TERT promoter was mutated in 78 of 128 tumors (60.9%). Median progression-free and overall survival of grade IV cases was 8.2 and 13.6 months, respectively. Higher age (≥ 80 years) and TERT promoter mutated were associated with shorter survival. Resection and adjuvant RT + TMZ were identified as independent factors for good prognosis. Conclusions This community-based study reveals characteristics and outcomes of elderly glioma patients in a real-world setting. Elderly patients have several potential factors for poor prognosis, but resection followed by RT + TMZ could lengthen duration of survival.

Abstract
Purpose Whereas whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) has been the standard treatment of brain metastases (BMs), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is increasingly preferred to avoid cognitive dysfunction; however, it has not been clearly determined whether treatment with SRS is as effective as that with WBRT or WBRT plus SRS. We thus assessed the noninferiority of salvage SRS to WBRT in patients with BMs. Patients and Methods Patients age 20 to 79 years old with performance status scores of 0 to 2-and 3 if caused only by neurologic deficits-and with four or fewer surgically resected BMs with only one lesion > 3 cm in diameter were eligible. Patients were randomly assigned to WBRT or salvage SRS arms within 21 days of surgery. The primary end point was overall survival. A one-sided α of .05 was used. Results Between January 2006 and May 2014, 137 and 134 patients were enrolled in the WBRT and salvage SRS arms, respectively. Median overall survival was 15.6 months in both arms (hazard ratio, 1.05; 90% CI, 0.83 to 1.33; one-sided P for noninferiority = .027). Median intracranial progression-free survival of patients in the WBRT arm (10.4 months) was longer than that of patients in the salvage SRS arm (4.0 months). The proportions of patients whose Mini-Mental Status Examination and performance status scores that did not worsen at 12 months were similar in both arms; however, 16.4% of patients in the WBRT arm experienced grade 2 to 4 cognitive dysfunction after 91 days postenrollment, whereas only 7.7% of those in the SRS arm did ( P = .048). Conclusion Salvage SRS is noninferior to WBRT and can be established as a standard therapy for patients with four or fewer BMs.

Abstract
Papillary glioneuronal tumor (PGNT) is a rare brain tumor grouped under mixed glioneuronal tumors according to the World Health Organization Classification of the Central Nervous System. The natural history of this pathology is not yet well documented. We report a case of PGNT that increased in size after a follow-up period of 10 years. An enlarged cyst wall and nodule showed a low intensity signal on T2*-weighted, suggesting hemorrhage during the clinical course. Characteristic pathological findings along with absence of BRAFV600E mutation identified the tumor as PGNT. The tumor characteristics of PGNT are discussed based on the presented case, with reference to the existing literature.

Stereotactic image-based histological analysis reveals a correlation between 11C-methionine uptake and MGMT promoter methylation in non-enhancing gliomas. Oncol Lett 2018; 16:1924-1930.

Abstract
Gliomas are genetically and histopathologically heterogeneous. Intratumoral heterogeneity in the MGMT promoter methylation status is an important clinical biomarker of glioblastoma. A higher uptake of 11C-methionine in positron-emission tomography (PET) reportedly reflects increased MGMT promoter methylation; however, non-stereotactic comparison of MGMT methylation and 11C-methionine PET images may not be accurate. The present study examined the correlation between 11C-methionine uptake and MGMT promoter methylation in non-enhancing gliomas using stereotactic image-based histological analysis. Data were collected from 9 patients with newly diagnosed non-enhancing glioma who underwent magnetic resonance imaging and 11C-methionine PET during pre-surgical examination. Clinical data were also collected from 3 patients during repeat surgery. The correlation between 11C-methionine uptake and MGMT methylation or cell density was analyzed using histological specimens obtained by multiple stereotactic sampling and an exact local comparison of 11C-methionine PET images and histological specimens was made. A total of 31 stereotactic sample sites were identified. In newly diagnosed cases, the tumor to normal uptake (T/N) ratio revealed a significant positive correlation with MGMT methylation (R=0.54, P=0.009) and a marginal correlation with cell density (R=0.42, P=0.05). In recurrent cases, the T/N ratio demonstrated no correlation with MGMT methylation (R=0.01, P=0.97) or cell density (R=0.15, P=0.70). An increased uptake of 11C-methionine in PET may reflect increased MGMT promoter methylation according to stereotactic image-based histological analysis. 11C-methionine PET could therefore be a useful tool for detecting regional MGMT promoter methylation in non-enhancing primary glioma.

Abstract
We conducted chronic experiments to determine how to treat profound biventricular failure systematically with ventricular assist devices (VADs) and to analyze the factors that affect prognoses for this condition. Anoxic arrest was induced in ten goats by aortic cross-clamping under normothermic conditions (38.5° C) for 30 (n= 3), 45 (n= 1), and 60 (n= 6) minutes. A left ventricular assist device (LVAD) was implanted in eight animals, and a biventricular assist device (BVAD) was used in two. Three goats — two of which had undergone anoxic arrest for 30 minutes and one for 60 minutes — whose right atrial pressure (RAP) was approximately 18 mm Hg during the acute stage, recovered in two to three weeks, and the pumps were successfully removed. Pathological findings in these animals showed scattered areas of surviving myocardium, with connective tissue replacing the degenerated myocardium. The remaining five LVAD goats required higher RAPs to maintain circulation and died from various causes. Maintaining circulation without volume loading, even in the presence of arrhythmias, was easier with the BVAD. One BVAD animal that underwent 45 minutes of anoxic arrest recovered from right ventricular failure, and the right pump was removed. The second goat (anoxic arrest, 60 min) on the BVAD failed to recover. Autopsy of the myocardium revealed a thin ventricular wall. Our studies show that the use of VADs allows time for a failing heart to recover, but the potential for healing is affected by the severity of myocardial damage prior to VAD application. We believe that although LVADs can maintain circulation with high RAPs, the use of BVADs might be more beneficial for maintaining systemic organ function in cases of persistent biventricular failure.

Abstract
We have treated ten cardiogenic shock patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). These patients were later divided into three groups: the first group with ventricular septal perforation, the second with aorto-coronary bypass grafting (ACBG) before LVAD implantation and the third group without ACBG. LVAD maintained the systemic circulation in each group, and cardiac function recovered enough to remove LVAD in 70% of the total patients. Two of three patients in the first group were discharged from hospital. Two weaned cases in the second group died of multiple organ failure and one was discharged, and hemorrhagic necrosis was seen in the bypassed area of the myocardium. One patient of the third group could not be weaned from LVAD because of respiratory failure though his heart function began to recover. Another case in the third group underwent bypass grafting after removal of LVAD. However ACBG surgery should be done very carefully because a patient in shock is occasionally intolerant to major surgery. In all groups, the major cause of death was multiple organ failure which was probably caused by the prolonged low output condition prior to LVAD application. In the light of this experience, it appears that LVAD should be applied before irreversible damage occurs to major organs, including the heart itself. To ensure the timely application of LVAD, some way must be found to introduce systematic application of LVAD into the normal course of AMI treatment.
