Moseeva MB, Azizova TV, Bannikova MV. Risk of central nervous system tumour incidence in a cohort of workers chronically exposed to ionising radiation. RADIATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL BIOPHYSICS 2024; 63:17-26. [PMID: 38212569 DOI: 10.1007/s00411-023-01054-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the risk of primary central nervous system (CNS) tumour incidence in a cohort of 22,377 Mayak Production Association workers chronically exposed to ionising radiation. There were 96 primary CNS tumours, including 42 cases of glioma and 44 cases of meningioma, registered during the whole follow-up period (1948-2018). The study demonstrated that the risk of primary CNS tumour incidence was associated with sex, attained age, calendar period, tall body height, age at the beginning of exposure, and facility type. There was no association found between risk of CNS tumour incidence and body mass index, smoking (males) and alcohol consumption status. The study did not find an effect of the total external gamma radiation dose absorbed in the brain on risk of CNS tumour incidence irrespective of whether an adjustment for the total external neutron dose absorbed in the brain was included or not. Excess relative risk per 1 Gy of external gamma brain dose was 0.05 (95% confidence interval (CI) -0.30; 0.70) for all CNS tumours, -0.18 (95% CI -; 0.44) for gliomas, and 0.38 (95% CI -0.32; 2.08) for meningiomas without adjustment for total neutron brain dose. There was no effect modification by sex, attained age, age at hire or facility.

Associations between BMI in youth and site-specific cancer in men-A cohort study with register linkage. Obesity (Silver Spring) 2024; 32:376-389. [PMID: 37927128 DOI: 10.1002/oby.23942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study examined BMI in young men and incident site-specific cancer to estimate population attributable fractions due to BMI based on projected obesity prevalence. METHODS A population-based cohort study with measured height and weight at age 18. Cox regression models assessed linear associations for BMI and included age, year, and site of conscription as well as parental level of education as covariates. RESULTS Primary analyses were performed in 1,489,115 men, of whom 78,217 subsequently developed cancer during a mean follow-up of 31 years. BMI was linearly associated with risk of developing all 18 site-specific cancers assessed (malignant melanoma; leukemia; myeloma; Hodgkin lymphoma; non-Hodgkin lymphoma; and cancer in the lungs, head and neck, central nervous system, thyroid, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver and gallbladder, colon, rectum, kidney, and bladder), in some instances evident at BMI levels usually defined as normal (20-25 kg/m2 ). Higher BMI was associated with lower risk of prostate cancer. The highest hazard ratios and population attributable fractions were seen for some gastrointestinal cancers. CONCLUSIONS This study reports linear associations between BMI at age 18 and subsequent site-specific cancers, calling for rapid action to stem the obesity epidemic and to prepare the health care system for steep increases in cancer cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Meningiomas are one of the most common benign primary brain tumors; however, there is a paucity of literature on potential preventability. This comprehensive review aimed to explore the existing evidence for the potential risk factors that may contribute to meningioma development and to discuss early prevention strategies. METHODS Literature search was conducted via MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Database to retrieve existing literature on various environmental exposures and lifestyle behaviors that are potential risk factors for the development of meningiomas. RESULTS Significant risk factors included exposure to ionizing radiation and certain environmental chemicals. Notably, this study also identified that cigarette smoking and obesity are associated with the development of meningiomas. To date, wireless phone usage, hormonal exposures, dietary factors, and traumatic brain injury remain inconclusive. Early prevention strategies should primarily be family-driven, community-based, and public health-endorsed strategies. Targeting unhealthy behaviors through healthcare organizations could execute a pivotal role in the maintenance of an optimum lifestyle, reducing the development of risk factors pertinent to meningiomas. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first study that offers a perspective on prevention of meningiomas. A causal relationship of risk factors in developing meningiomas cannot be directly established with the current evidence. We are aware of the limitations of the hypothesis, but we believe that this study will raise more awareness and our findings could potentially be endorsed by organizations promoting health across the globe. Further prospective and retrospective studies will shed more light on this topic and help establish a definitive relationship.

Abstract
Recent studies have revealed a putative relationship between diet and glioma development and prognosis, but few studies have examined the association between overall diet and glioma risk. This study, conducted in China, employed a hospital-based case-control approach. The researchers utilized an a priori method based on dietary data to evaluate compliance scores for five healthy dietary patterns (the Mediterranean diet, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, the Mediterranean-DASH diet Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet, the Paleolithic diet, and the Planetary Health Diet) in 1012 participants. At the same time, data-driven methods were used to explore the association between dietary patterns and glioma via principal component analysis (PCA). In the multivariate model, adhering to the Mediterranean diet (odds ratio (OR) = 0.29; 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.17-0.52), the DASH diet (OR = 0.09; 95% CI: 0.04-0.18), the MIND diet (OR = 0.25; 95% CI: 0.14-0.44), and the Paleolithic diet (OR = 0.13; 95% CI: 0.06-0.25) was associated with a reduced glioma risk. The results of PCA suggested that increasing the intake of plant-based foods and fish and limiting foods rich in carbohydrates, fats, and salts were associated with a reduced glioma risk. There was a substantial nonlinear dose-response association between glioma and the Mediterranean diet score. However, the DASH diet score, the MIND diet score, and the Paleolithic diet score exhibited linear dose-response relationships. Therefore, this study finds that dietary patterns may be an influencing factor for glioma risk.

Abstract
In Latin America and the Caribbean a considerable proportion of the population have excess body weight, do not meet the recommendations of physical activity and healthy diet, and have suboptimal rates of breastfeeding. Excess body weight is associated with at least 15 cancer sites, physical activity protects against three cancers, with some evidence suggesting a protective effect for eight more cancer sites, and sedentary behavior probably increases the risk of five cancer sites. Fiber and wholegrains protect against colorectal cancer, high intake of fruits and vegetables could reduce the risk of aerodigestive cancers; processed and red meat increase the risk of colorectal cancer; and very hot beverages are associated with esophageal cancer. Moreover, sugar-sweetened beverages and ultra-processed foods are a convincing cause for excess body weight, increasing cancer risk through this pathway, with some emerging evidence suggesting also direct pathways. Breastfeeding protects against breast cancer, and could protect against ovarian cancer. Taking this evidence into account, the Latin America and the Caribbean Code Against Cancer recommends the general public to maintain a healthy body weight, be physically active and limit sedentary behavior, eat a healthy diet (eat plenty of vegetables, fruits, wholegrains and legumes; avoid sugar-sweetened beverages and processed meat; and limit ultra-processed foods, red meat and very hot beverages), and breastfeed. Moreover, the Latin America and the Caribbean Code Against Cancer also includes a set of public policy recommendations for cancer prevention to inform policy makers and civil society about the need of policies to shape healthy environments and create opportunities to facilitate the adoption of the recommendations directed to the public.

Abstract
The information about phytochemicals' potential to prevent cancer is encouraging, including for glioma. However, most studies on phytochemicals and glioma mainly focused on preclinical studies. Their epidemiological studies were not sufficient, and the evidence on the dose-response relationship is usually limited. Therefore, this investigation examined the association between dietary phytochemical intake and glioma in Chinese adults. This case-control study was carried out in a hospital in China. Based on the dietary information obtained from the food frequency questionnaire, the researchers estimated the phytochemical intake of 506 patients with glioma and 506 controls. Compared with participants in the lowest tertile, the highest intakes of carotene, flavonoids, soy isoflavones, anthocyanin, and resveratrol were associated with a reduced risk of glioma. The WQS and BKMR models suggested that anthocyanin and carotene have a greater influence on glioma. The significant nonlinear dose-response associations between dietary phytochemicals and glioma were suggested using the restricted cubic spline function. According to this study on phytochemicals and glioma, higher intakes of carotene, flavonoids, soy isoflavones, anthocyanins, and resveratrol are linked to a lower risk of glioma. So, we might not be able to ignore how phytochemicals affect gliomas.

Abstract
Increasing evidence indicates that obesity is a risk factor for various tumors. We aimed to clarify the evidence for an association between body mass index (BMI) and cancer risk based on existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Eighteen studies were included in this umbrella review after searching PubMed, Embase and Web of science. The results revealed that underweight was inversely associated with the incidence of brain tumors and positively related to the risk of esophageal and lung cancer. Overweight enhances the incidence of brain tumors, kidney cancer, endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer, multiple myeloma, bladder cancer and liver cancer. Obesity was related to the increased incidence of brain tumors, cervical cancer, kidney cancer, endometrial cancer, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, multiple myeloma, gallbladder cancer, bladder cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, thyroid cancer and Hodgkin's lymphoma. Moreover, dose-response analysis was conducted by 10 studies, and the results demonstrated that each 5 Kg/m2 increase in BMI was associated with a 1.01- to 1.13-fold increased risk of general brain tumors, multiple myeloma, bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Every 1 Kg/m2 increase in BMI was linked to 6% and 4% increases in the risk of kidney cancer and gallbladder cancer, respectively.

The Use of Different Anthropometric Indices to Assess the Body Composition of Young Women in Relation to the Incidence of Obesity, Sarcopenia and the Premature Mortality Risk. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:12449. [PMID: 36231748 PMCID: PMC9564835 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191912449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The objective of the study was to evaluate the stratification of young women based on the assessment of body composition according to several currently recommended anthropometric indices and parameters, as well as the presence of obesity, sarcopenic obesity and the risk of premature death. Three hundred and three young Caucasian women aged 18-25 years were included in the cross-sectional observational study. For the purposes of the study, we used the bioelectrical impedance method and applied the obtained data to calculate indices defining obesity, sarcopenic obesity and premature mortality risk (ABSI z-score). We found significant differences between indicators of total and abdominal obesity when determining the rate of risk of premature death and diagnosis of obesity. Our results also suggest that FMI and FM/FFM indices correlate excellently with fat mass and visceral adipose tissue, better than BMI. Even in the case of abdominal obesity, FMI appears to correlate relatively strongly, more so than BMI. The results of the study support the opinion that in the assessment of body composition and health status, the presence of obesity (sarcopenic obesity) and the risk of premature death, anthropometric parameters and indices focusing not only on body weight (BMI, ABSI), but also on the proportionality and distribution of fat (WC, WHR, WHtR, VFA) and muscle tissue (FFMI, SMMI, FM/FFM ratio) should be used.

Abstract
For a century, since the pioneering work of Otto Warburg, the interwoven relationship between metabolism and cancer has been appreciated. More recently, with obesity rates rising in the U.S. and worldwide, epidemiologic evidence has supported a link between obesity and cancer. A substantial body of work seeks to mechanistically unpack the association between obesity, altered metabolism, and cancer. Without question, these relationships are multifactorial and cannot be distilled to a single obesity- and metabolism-altering hormone, substrate, or factor. However, it is important to understand the hormone-specific associations between metabolism and cancer. Here, we review the links between obesity, metabolic dysregulation, insulin, and cancer, with an emphasis on current investigational metabolic adjuncts to standard-of-care cancer treatment.

The impact of body mass index and height on risk for primary tumours of the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves in 1.7 million norwegian women and men: a prospective cohort study. Acta Oncol 2022; 61:1-6. [PMID: 35001805 DOI: 10.1080/0284186x.2021.2009562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary tumours of the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves comprise a heterogenous group of pathology, dominantly represented by meningioma, nerve sheath tumours (NST) and glioma. Body height and body mass index (BMI) are risk factors for certain brain tumour subgroups, but no other study has specifically assessed height and BMI in relation to primary tumours of the spine and peripheral nerves in women and men. METHODS In this prospective population-based cohort study height and weight were measured in 1.7 million adult Norwegian women and men at baseline. Incident cases of primary tumours arising from the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves during follow-up were identified by linkage to the National Cancer Registry. Tumour risk was assessed by Cox regression analyses in relation to height and BMI. RESULTS During 49 million person-years of follow-up, 857 primary tumours of the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves were identified. Overweight and obesity were not associated with risk for all tumours or any tumour subgroup. Height was positively associated with risk for all tumours (HR per 10 cm increase: 1.30, 95% CI 1.16-1.46). The association between height and tumour risk varied between tumour subgroups: while height was not significantly associated with NST, height increased the risk for meningioma (HR 1.42, 95% CI 1.13-1.78) and glioma (HR 1.56, 95% CI 1.06-2.28). The strongest association between height and tumour risk was found for the glioma subgroup of ependymoma in women (HR 3.38, 95% CI 1.64-6.94). CONCLUSION This study could not identify overweight and obesity as risk factors for primary tumours of the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves in women or men. Increasing body height was associated with increased tumour risk overall, but not universal for all tumour subgroups.Importance of the studyPrimary tumours of the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves have received little focus in epidemiologic studies, although the incidence and histo-pathological tumour subgroups differ significantly from primary brain tumours. Risk factors for these tumours have hardly been assessed in previous studies. Height, overweight and obesity are known risk factors for several cancers, including certain brain tumour subgroups, such as meningioma.This is the first study to report the association between height, overweight and obesity and primary tumours of the spinal cord, spinal meninges, spinal and peripheral nerves. This includes tumour subgroups of meningioma, nerve sheath tumour, glioma and the most common spinal glioma subgroup of ependymoma. While overweight and obesity were not associated with either of the tumour subgroups, an association between increasing body height and risk for spinal meningioma and glioma, including ependymoma, was found. Nerve sheath tumour risk was not associated with increasing body height.

Associations of General and Abdominal Obesity with the Risk of Glioma Development. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13122859. [PMID: 34201103 PMCID: PMC8228893 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13122859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2021] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary While obesity is a well-known risk factor for the development of various types of cancer, conflicting results have been reported concerning the relationship between obesity and the risk of glioma. To date, no studies have evaluated the association between obesity and risk of glioma development in Eastern Asian populations, who usually have greater fat mass and less muscle and are more likely to develop several metabolic diseases than Western populations of the same body mass index (BMI) category. In this nationwide population-based study, we suggest, for the first time, positive associations of general and central obesity with the risk of glioma development. In addition, we demonstrate a stronger association between abdominal obesity and the risk of glioma development than BMI and the risk of glioma development. Abstract The association between obesity and the risk of glioma remains unclear. We sought to evaluate the potential association between general and abdominal obesity and the risk of glioma based on a nationwide population-based cohort study of Koreans. Using data from the Korean National Health Insurance System cohort, 6,833,744 people older than 20 years who underwent regular national health examination in both 2009 and 2011 were followed until the end of 2017. We documented 4771 glioma cases based on an ICD-10 code of C71 during the median follow-up period of 7.30 years. Individuals with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25.0 kg/m2 were at significantly higher risk of developing glioma than those with a BMI < 25.0 kg/m2 (HR 1.08 CI 1.02–1.15). Individuals with a waist circumference (WC) ≥ 90 cm (males)/85 cm (females) also had a significantly higher risk of glioma than those with a WC < 90 cm (males)/85 cm (females) (HR 1.16 CI 1.09–1.24). In the group with a BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m2, individuals with abdominal obesity were at significantly higher risk of developing glioma (HR 1.18 CI 1.09–1.27) than those without abdominal obesity. The role of abdominal obesity in this association was stronger in women than in men. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration that obese people may be at higher risk of glioma, especially centrally obese people from an Asian population with a BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m2. Loss of visceral fat in people with abdominal obesity may reduce their risk of developing glioma.

Abstract
Meningiomas are the most common intracranial tumor, making up more than a third of all primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors. They are mostly benign tumors that can be observed or preferentially treated with gross total resection that provides good outcomes. Meningiomas with complicated histology or in compromising locations has proved to be a challenge in treating and predicting prognostic outcomes. Advances in genomics and molecular characteristics of meningiomas have uncovered potential use for more accurate grading and prediction of prognosis and recurrence. With the study and detection of genomic aberrancies, specific biologic targets are now being trialed for possible management of meningiomas that are not responsive to standard surgery and radiotherapy treatment. This review summarizes current epidemiology, etiology, molecular characteristics, diagnosis, treatments, and current treatment trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Meningioma is the most common intracranial tumor in the US and its etiology remains poorly understood. Meningioma has been predominantly studied among white populations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations of anthropometric, comorbidity, and hormonal factors with meningioma in an ethnically diverse population. METHODS A nested case-control analysis was performed within the Multiethnic Cohort (MEC). Meningioma cases were identified via linkage with Medicare and the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development Hospital Discharge data and were matched to up to 10 controls. Anthropometric, comorbidities, physical activity level, and hormonal factors at baseline based on questionnaires were evaluated for association with meningioma. RESULTS A total of 894 cases and 8918 matched controls were included in this study. Increasing body mass index (BMI) (P-trend = 0.041) and weight increases since age 21 (P-trend = 0.0052) were positively associated with meningioma. Hormonal factors including oral contraceptive use (odds ratio [OR]: 1.24; 95% CI: 1.01-1.51) and estrogen hormonal therapy use (per 5 years, OR: 1.07; 95% CI: 1.01-1.15) were associated with meningioma risk. Hypertension was positively associated with meningioma (OR: 1.26; 95% CI: 1.09-1.47), with individuals who reported a history of both hypertension and diabetes showing a stronger association (OR: 1.54; 95% CI: 1.17-2.03). The tests for heterogeneity across race/ethnicity were not statistically significant (P heterogeneity ≥ 0.17); however, the association of BMI with meningioma was mainly observed in Japanese Americans (P-trend = 0.0036) and hypertension in Japanese Americans (OR: 1.63; 95% CI: 1.17-2.27) and Native Hawaiians (OR: 1.86; 95% CI: 1.02-3.40). CONCLUSION Obesity, hormonal factors, and hypertension were associated with meningioma in an ethnically diverse population.

Extracellular lipid loading augments hypoxic paracrine signaling and promotes glioma angiogenesis and macrophage infiltration. JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL & CLINICAL CANCER RESEARCH : CR 2019; 38:241. [PMID: 31174567 PMCID: PMC6556032 DOI: 10.1186/s13046-019-1228-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2019] [Accepted: 05/13/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary brain tumors, in particular glioblastoma (GBM), remain among the most challenging cancers. Like most malignant tumors, GBM is characterized by hypoxic stress that triggers paracrine, adaptive responses, such as angiogenesis and macrophage recruitment, rescuing cancer cells from metabolic catastrophe and conventional oncological treatments. The unmet need of strategies to efficiently target tumor "stressness" represents a strong clinical motivation to better understand the underlying mechanisms of stress adaptation. Here, we have investigated how lipid loading may be involved in the paracrine crosstalk between cancer cells and the stromal compartment of the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. METHODS Regions from patient GBM tumors with or without the lipid loaded phenotype were isolated by laser capture microdissection and subjected to comparative gene expression analysis in parallel with cultured GBM cells with or without lipid loading. The potential involvement of extracellular lipids in the paracrine crosstalk with stromal cells was studied by immunoprofiling of the secretome and functional studies in vitro as well as in various orthotopic GBM mouse models, including hyperlipidemic ApoE-/- mice. Statistical analyses of quantitative experimental methodologies were performed using unpaired Student's T test. For survival analyses of mouse experiments, log-rank test was used, whereas Kaplan-Meier was performed to analyze patient survival. RESULTS We show that the lipid loaded niche of GBM patient tumors exhibits an amplified hypoxic response and that the acquisition of extracellular lipids by GBM cells can reinforce paracrine activation of stromal cells and immune cells. At the functional level, we show that lipid loading augments the secretion of e.g. VEGF and HGF, and may potentiate the cross-activation of endothelial cells and macrophages. In line with these data, in vivo studies suggest that combined local tumor lipid loading and systemic hyperlipidemia of ApoE-/- mice receiving a high fat diet induces tumor vascularization and macrophage recruitment, and was shown to significantly decrease animal survival. CONCLUSIONS Together, these data identify extracellular lipid loading as a potentially targetable modulator of the paracrine adaptive response in the hypoxic tumor niche and suggest the contribution of the distinct lipid loaded phenotype in shaping the glioma microenvironment.

Comparative analysis of intracranial meningiomas in patients younger than 40 years. J Neurooncol 2019; 143:563-571.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intracranial meningiomas are relatively rare in young adults, and their specific clinical features remain unclear. The authors analyzed the clinical characteristics of intracranial meningioma in patients younger than 40 years. METHODS Consecutive patients younger than 40 years with meningioma (n = 223) who underwent surgical treatment at our hospital from 2010 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The study cases was further divided into a younger group (≤ 30 years old; n = 63) and an older group (31-40 years old; n = 160). The clinical information, radiological characteristics, intraoperative findings, and pathological outcomes were extracted from the patients' records and statistically analyzed. RESULTS Intracranial meningioma is uncommon in patients younger than 40 years (8.6%). The study group's most common symptoms at presentation were headaches (46.7%), visual impairment (27.8%), limb weakness (20.6%), and epilepsy (13.5%). The mean tumor size was larger (51.47 ± 50.36 cm3) in the younger group than in the older group (22.94 ± 27.20 cm3). According to multivariate analyses, young age was an independent predictor of large tumor size, and large tumor size was significantly associated with peritumoral brain edema and intraoperative blood loss. CONCLUSION Intracranial meningiomas in younger adult patients may have special complexity and perioperative risk due to large tumor sizes. Therefore, individualized treatment strategy is recommended, and the appropriate caution should be taken during surgery.

Abstract
Preoperative prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is linked to the clinical outcome of patients with malignant tumours, however few studies have investigated its utility in predicting outcome in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). We performed a retrospective study on adult patients with GBM in order to evaluate the impact of PNI on overall survival (OS), after adjusting for known prognostic factor (age, extent of surgery, Karnofsky performance status, radiochemotherapy). This is an Italian, multicentre, retrospective, cohort study. The patient's cohort includes 282 individuals with a newly diagnosed GBM followed in 3 Lombardia Hospitals In all cases the diagnosis was supported by histological data. Patient's information including sex, age at onset, Karnofsky performance status (KPS), extension of surgical resection (EOR), adjuvant treatment, antiepileptic treatment, serum variables and survival data were collected. Univariate and multivariate analysis did not reveal an association between PNI and overall survival in our series of GBM patients. PNI is a controversial marker for prognosis in GBM patients and further prospective studies are necessary to elucidate its role.

Abstract
Background Glioma comprises a heterogeneous group of mostly malignant brain tumors, whereof glioblastoma (GBM) represents the largest and most lethal subgroup. Body height and body mass index (BMI) are risk factors for other cancers, but no previous study has examined anthropometric data in relation to different glioma subgroups. Methods This prospective cohort study includes 1.8 million Norwegian women and men between ages 14 and 80 years at baseline. Body weight and height were measured, and incident cases of glioma were identified by linkage to the National Cancer Registry. Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate risk for different glioma subgroups in relation to anthropometric measures. Results During 54 million person-years of follow-up, 4,382 gliomas were identified. Overweight and obesity were not associated with risk for any glioma subgroup. Height was positively associated with risk for GBM and all other gliomas (hazard ratio [HR] per 10 cm increase: 1.24; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17-1.31 and 1.18; 95% CI, 1.09-1.29) but not with the proxy for isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant glioma (HR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.98-1.21). In further subgroup analyses, the effect of height on glioma risk varied significantly with positive associations for oligoastrocytoma (HR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.20-2.53) and malignant glioma not otherwise specified (NOS) (HR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.16-1.76, but not with diffuse astrocytoma (WHO grades II and III) or oligodendroglioma. Conclusion This epidemiologic study consolidates height as a risk factor for GBM and other gliomas. It further indicates that this association is not universal for gliomas but may differ between different glioma subgroups.

Abstract
Anthropometric measures are simple, inexpensive, noninvasive tools to assess the risk of morbidity and mortality. This systematic review assessed the performance of A Body Shape Index (ABSI) in predicting hypertension, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and all-cause mortality and compared the differential predictability between ABSI and two other common anthropometric measures - body mass index and waist circumference. A keyword and reference search were conducted in the PubMed and Web of Science for articles published until 1 November 2017. Thirty-eight studies were included in the review, including 24 retrospective cohort studies and 14 cross-sectional studies conducted in 15 countries. Meta-analysis found that a standard deviation increase in ABSI was associated with an increase in the odds of hypertension by 13% and type 2 diabetes by 35% and an increase in cardiovascular disease risk by 21% and all-cause mortality risk by 55%. ABSI outperformed body mass index and waist circumference in predicting all-cause mortality but underperformed in predicting chronic diseases. ABSI is highly clustered around the mean with a rather small variance, making it difficult to define a clinical cutoff for clinical practice. Future studies are warranted to assess ABSI's potential usefulness as an anthropometric measure in population-level health surveillance.

Abstract
Inverse association between allergic conditions and glioma risk has been consistently reported in epidemiological studies with little attention paid to potential environmental confounders; the association with meningioma risk is less consistent. We examined the association between allergy history and risk of glioma and meningioma in adults using data from the CERENAT (CEREbral tumors: a NATional study) multicenter case-control study carried out in 4 areas in France in 2004-2010. Participants' histories of doctor-diagnosed allergic asthma, eczema, rhinitis/hay fever and other allergic conditions were collected at onset through a detailed questionnaire delivered in a face-to-face interview. Conditional logistic regression for matched sets was adjusted for participants' educational level and mobile phone use. A total of 273 glioma cases, 218 meningioma cases and 982 matched controls selected from the local electoral rolls were analyzed. A significant inverse association was found between glioma and a history of any allergy (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.36-0.75), with a dose-effect relationship with the number of allergic conditions reported (p-trend = 0.001) and a particularly strong association with hay fever/allergic rhinitis (OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.30-0.72). Interestingly, associations with glioma risk were more pronounced in women. For meningioma, no association was observed with overall or specific allergic conditions. Our findings confirmed the inverse association between allergic conditions and glioma risk but questioned the role of allergy in meningioma risk. Future research is needed to clarify the biological mechanism of overall allergy and allergic rhinitis on glioma and to confirm the different effect by gender.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In 2016, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has announced that avoiding body fatness (i.e. overweight and obesity) contributes to prevent meningioma occurrence, but considered the available evidence for glioma inadequate. The association of body fatness with other CNS tumor subgroups is largely unknown. OBJECTIVES To assess whether body fatness or body height are associated with risk for meningioma, glioma, pituitary adenoma (PA) or nerve sheath tumor (NST) in a large population-based Norwegian cohort. METHODS In this prospective cohort study of 1.8 million Norwegian residents, weight and height were measured at baseline and incident intracranial tumors were subsequently identified by linkage to the Cancer Registry of Norway. Cox regression analyses were performed to estimate risk for each tumor subgroup in relation to anthropometric measures, stratified by sex and in different age groups. RESULTS During 54 million person-years of follow-up 3335 meningiomas, 4382 gliomas, 1071 PAs and 759 NSTs were diagnosed. Obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) was not associated with risk for meningioma or glioma, but was significantly associated with risk for PA (HR 1.43; 95% CI 1.09-1.88) compared with the reference group (BMI 20-24.9 kg/m2). For intracranial NSTs, obesity was associated with reduced tumor risk (HR 0.68; 95% CI 0.46-0.99). Body height was associated with increased risk for all four tumor subgroups. CONCLUSIONS This study does not confirm overweight or obesity as risk factors for meningioma. Additionally, overweight and obesity can be quite confidently excluded as risk factors for glioma. However, this study indicates that body fatness increases the risk for PA, while it reduces the risk for NST.
