[PMID: 38975185 PMCID: PMC11225743 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32596] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2024] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aims to examine the trends in machine learning application to meningiomas between 2004 and 2023. Methods Publication data were extracted from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) within the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC). Using CiteSpace 6.2.R6, a comprehensive analysis of publications, authors, cited authors, countries, institutions, cited journals, references, and keywords was conducted on December 1, 2023. Results The analysis included a total of 342 articles. Prior to 2007, no publications existed in this field, and the number remained modest until 2017. A significant increase occurred in publications from 2018 onwards. The majority of the top 10 authors hailed from Germany and China, with the USA also exerting substantial international influence, particularly in academic institutions. Journals from the IEEE series contributed significantly to the publications. "Deep learning," "brain tumor," and "classification" emerged as the primary keywords of focus among researchers. The developmental pattern in this field primarily involved a combination of interdisciplinary integration and the refinement of major disciplinary branches. Conclusion Machine learning has demonstrated significant value in predicting early meningiomas and tailoring treatment plans. Key research focuses involve optimizing detection indicators and selecting superior machine learning algorithms. Future efforts should aim to develop high-performance algorithms to drive further innovation in this field.

Hamza M, Elia A, Paun L, Hudelist B, Schumacher X, Demasi M, Oppenheim C, Chretien F, Zanello M, Roux A, Pallud J. Predictors of functional outcomes following spinal meningioma surgery. A single-center retrospective experience of 59 cases. Neurochirurgie 2024; 70:101577. [PMID: 38909550 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuchi.2024.101577] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Revised: 05/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To better predict the postoperative functional outcomes of patients operated on for a spinal meningioma, we assessed: 1) the prevalence of good and poor postoperative functional outcomes following surgery; 2) the impact of age and frailty on postoperative functional outcomes. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, we screened adult patients operated on for a spinal meningioma from 2005 to 2022. Inclusion criteria were: 1) patients ≥18 years; 2) histopathological diagnosis of meningioma; 3) location to the cervical, thoracic or lumbar spine (foramen magnum meningioma excluded); 4) surgery as first-line treatment; and 5) available postoperative follow-up ≥1 year. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the modified McCormick scale preoperatively and at one-year of postoperative follow-up. RESULTS In this single institution experience of 59 cases, we found that: 1) surgical resection positively impacts patients' functional outcomes, 91.2% either showing an improved or maintained good postoperative neurological status defined by a modified McCormick scale score ≤ II; 2) a good modified McCormick scale status was achieved in 84.2% of patients at one postoperative year; 3) 87.5% of patients who were not improved postoperatively maintained an overall good neurological status defined by a modified McCormick scale score ≤ II; and 4) frail or aged patients were not at a higher risk of poor postoperative functional outcomes. CONCLUSION Surgical resection positively impacts outcomes of patients operated for a spinal meningioma. Sex, presence of a meningioma-related myelopathy, extent of resection, and occurrence of surgery-related postoperative complications, but not age or frailty, predict postoperative functional outcomes.

Abstract
Extradural meningiomas are rare in the cervical region. A total of 70-77% of reported cases have occurred in the thoracic region. Tumors that occur in the cervical region may invade the adjacent nerve root and brachial plexus. Typically, diagnoses of extradural meningioma are made after patients present with signs of myelopathy, such as progressive paresis and numbness. In the current study, a 64-year-old male patient presented with neck pain, numbness and mild weakness in the left hand over a 6-month period. The general neurological examination was unremarkable, except for mild grasping weakness on the left side. Needle electromyography revealed complex repetitive discharges in the left 5 and 6th cervical paraspinal muscles. Neuromuscular ultrasound revealed a lesion over the left 7th cervical root, which enabled the early detection of an extradural meningioma before notable focal neurological defects developed. The patient underwent a subtotal tumor excision, followed by radiotherapy for residual tumor. Histopathological examination confirmed atypical meningioma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This article discusses the diagnostic approach to patients with suspected neoplasms of the spinal cord and reviews the most common primary and metastatic spinal neoplasms and their presentations. LATEST DEVELOPMENTS Neoplasms of the spinal cord are rare entities that can involve the spinal cord parenchyma, the dura and leptomeninges, or the extradural space. The most common intramedullary spinal cord neoplasms are primary spinal cord tumors, including ependymomas, pilocytic astrocytomas, and diffuse midline gliomas. The most common primary neoplasms of the spine are intradural extramedullary spinal meningiomas, whereas primary neoplasms of the leptomeninges are rare. Advances in molecular characterization of spinal cord tumors and recent clinical trials of these rare entities are expanding the repertoire of systemic therapy options for primary spinal cord neoplasms. Metastases to the spine most often affect the extradural space. Metastatic epidural spinal cord compression is a neurologic emergency that requires a rapid, multidisciplinary response to preserve neurologic function. ESSENTIAL POINTS Neurologists should understand the diagnostic approach to neoplasms of the spinal cord. Knowledge of the most common spinal cord neoplasms will allow for appropriate management and optimal patient care.

Int J Surg 2024; 110:921-933. [PMID: 37983808 PMCID: PMC10871561 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000000884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Spinal meningiomas (SMs) are relatively rare central nervous system tumors that usually trigger neurological symptoms. The prevalence of SMs is increasing with the aging of the global population. This study aimed to perform a systematic epidemiologic and survival prognostic analysis of SMs to evaluate their public health impact and to develop a novel method to estimate the overall survival at 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year in patients with SMs. METHODS Five thousand one hundred fifty eight patients with SMs were recruited from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2000 to 2019. Firstly, descriptive analysis was performed on the epidemiology of SMs. Secondly, these individuals were randomly allocated to the training and validation sets in a ratio of 7:3. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis were utilized in the training set to identify independent prognostic factors and to construct a nomogram for survival prognosis. Subsequently, the discriminative power, predictive performance, and clinical utility of the nomogram were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve and decision curve analysis. Finally, a mortality risk stratification system and a web-based dynamic nomogram were constructed to quantify the risk of mortality in patients with SMs. RESULTS The annual age-adjusted incidence rates of SMs increased steadily since 2004, reaching a rate of 0.40 cases per 100 000 population in 2019, with a female-to-male ratio of ~4:1. The age groups of 50-59, 60-69, and 70-79 years old were the most prevalent ages for SMs, accounting for 19.08, 24.93, and 23.32%, respectively. In addition, seven independent prognostic factors were identified to establish a prognostic nomogram for patients with SMs. The decision curve analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that the nomogram had high clinical utility and favorable accuracy. Moreover, the mortality risk stratification system effectively divided patients into low-risk, middle-risk, and high-risk subgroups. CONCLUSIONS SMs are relatively rare benign spinal tumors prevalent in the white elderly female population. Clinicians could use the nomogram to personalize the prediction of the overall survival probability of patients with SMs, categorize these patients into different mortality risk subgroups, and develop personalized decision-making plans. Moreover, the web-based dynamic nomogram could help to further promote clinical application and assist clinicians in providing personalized counseling, timely monitoring, and clinical assessment for patients.
