Abstract
PURPOSE The introduction of molecular markers in to the diagnosis of gliomas has changed the therapeutic approach to this tumors. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of surgery on anaplastic astrocytomas (AA), which has not previously been fully elucidated. METHODS This was a retrospective study involving a total of 143 patients who underwent surgery for primary AA in our department between 1995 and 2020. RESULTS Total tumor resection was achieved more often in patients with IDH-mutant tumors (41.09%) than in patients with IDH-wildtype tumors (30.76%). The median PFS was 1876 days for patients with IDH1 mutations and 238 days for patients with IDH-wildtype tumors. The 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year PFS were longer in patients with total tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (86.2%, 69%, 65.5% and 44.8%, respectively) than in patients with subtotal tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (83.3%, 55.6%, 41.7% and 25%, respectively) and even longer compared to all IDH-wildtype tumors. The median OS was 2472 days for patients with IDH1 mutations and 434 days for patients with IDH-wildtype tumors. The 3-, 5- and 10-year OS times were longer in patients with total tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (89.2%, 85.2% and 72.6%, respectively) than in patients with subtotal tumor resection and IDH-mutant AA (85.9%, 73.7% and 52.6%, respectively) and were even longer compared to all IDH-wildtype tumors. CONCLUSION Total tumor resection is more common with IDH-mutant AA than with IDH-wildtype tumors. Patients with IDH-mutant AA had significantly better PFS and OS after total tumor resection than after subtotal tumor resection and biopsy.

Curr Med Sci 2024; 44:399-405. [PMID: 38632142 DOI: 10.1007/s11596-024-2840-z] [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: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Complete resection of malignant gliomas is often challenging. Our previous study indicated that intraoperative contrast-enhanced ultrasound (ICEUS) could aid in the detection of residual tumor remnants and the total removal of brain lesions. This study aimed to investigate the survival rates of patients undergoing resection with or without the use of ICEUS and to assess the impact of ICEUS on the prognosis of patients with malignant glioma. METHODS A total of 64 patients diagnosed with malignant glioma (WHO grade HI and IV) who underwent surgery between 2012 and 2018 were included. Among them, 29 patients received ICEUS. The effects of ICEUS on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients were evaluated. A quantitative analysis was performed to compare ICEUS parameters between gliomas and the surrounding tissues. RESULTS The ICEUS group showed better survival rates both in OS and PFS than the control group. The univariate analysis revealed that age, pathology and ICEUS were significant prognostic factors for PFS, with only age being a significant prognostic factor for OS. In multivariate analysis, age and ICEUS were significant prognostic factors for both OS and PFS. The quantitative analysis showed that the intensity and transit time of microbubbles reaching the tumors were significantly different from those of microbubbles reaching the surrounding tissue. CONCLUSION ICEUS facilitates the identification of residual tumors. Age and ICEUS are prognostic factors for malignant glioma surgery, and use of ICEUS offers a better prognosis for patients with malignant glioma.

Rethinking extent of resection of contrast-enhancing and non-enhancing tumor: different survival impacts on adult-type diffuse gliomas in 2021 World Health Organization classification. Eur Radiol 2024; 34:1376-1387. [PMID: 37608093 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-10125-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extent of resection (EOR) of contrast-enhancing (CE) and non-enhancing (NE) tumors may have different impacts on survival according to types of adult-type diffuse gliomas in the molecular era. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of EOR of CE and NE tumors in glioma according to the 2021 World Health Organization classification. METHODS This retrospective study included 1193 adult-type diffuse glioma patients diagnosed between 2001 and 2021 (183 oligodendroglioma, 211 isocitrate dehydrogenase [IDH]-mutant astrocytoma, and 799 IDH-wildtype glioblastoma patients) from a single institution. Patients had complete information on IDH mutation, 1p/19q codeletion, and O6-methylguanine-methyltransferase (MGMT) status. Cox survival analyses were performed within each glioma type to assess predictors of overall survival, including clinical, imaging data, histological grade, MGMT status, adjuvant treatment, and EOR of CE and NE tumors. Subgroup analyses were performed in patients with CE tumor. RESULTS Among 1193 patients, 935 (78.4%) patients had CE tumors. In entire oligodendrogliomas, gross total resection (GTR) of NE tumor was not associated with survival (HR = 0.56, p = 0.223). In 86 (47.0%) oligodendroglioma patients with CE tumor, GTR of CE tumor was the only independent predictor of survival (HR = 0.16, p = 0.004) in multivariable analysis. GTR of CE and NE tumors was independently associated with better survival in IDH-mutant astrocytoma and IDH-wildtype glioblastoma (all ps < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS GTR of both CE and NE tumors may significantly improve survival within IDH-mutant astrocytomas and IDH-wildtype glioblastomas. In oligodendrogliomas, the EOR of CE tumor may be crucial in survival; aggressive GTR of NE tumor may be unnecessary, whereas GTR of the CE tumor is recommended. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Surgical strategies on contrast-enhancing (CE) and non-enhancing (NE) tumors should be reassessed considering the different survival outcomes after gross total resection depending on CE and NE tumors in the 2021 World Health Organization classification of adult-type diffuse gliomas. KEY POINTS The survival impact of extent of resection of contrast-enhancing (CE) and non-enhancing (NE) tumors was evaluated in adult-type diffuse gliomas. Gross total resection of both CE and NE tumors may improve survival in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant astrocytomas and IDH-wildtype glioblastomas, while only gross total resection of the CE tumor improves survival in oligodendrogliomas. Surgical strategies should be reconsidered according to types in adult-type diffuse gliomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extensive surgical resection has been found to be associated with longer survival in patients with gliomas, but the interactive prognostic value of molecular pathology of the surgical resection is unclear. This study evaluated the impact of molecular pathology and clinical characteristics on the surgical benefit in WHO grade 3 IDH-mutant gliomas. METHODS Clinical and pathological information of 246 patients with WHO grade 3 IDH-mutant gliomas were collected from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database (2006-2020). The role of the extent of resection on overall survival, stratified by molecular pathology and clinical characteristics, was investigated. We then assessed prognostic factors using a univariate log-rank test and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model in the subgroups. RESULTS The extent of resection was an independent prognostic factor in the entire cohort, even when adjusted for molecular pathology. Gross total resection was found to be associated with longer survival in all patients and in the astrocytoma group but not in the oligodendroglioma group. Compared with subtotal resections, gross total resections resulted in a longer survival time for astrocytoma patients aged ≤ 45 years. However, there was no survival benefit from total resection in patients with astrocytoma aged > 45 years. CONCLUSIONS Extensive resection benefits only a proportion of patients with WHO grade 3 IDH-mutant gliomas. Younger patients with astrocytomas had survival benefits from extensive resection. In addition to clinical characteristics (especially age), molecular pathology impacted prognosis in patients with gliomas. Our findings provide guiding information to neurosurgeons while planning surgeries.

Abstract
Background Grade 3 1p/19q co-deleted oligodendroglioma is an uncommon primary CNS tumor with a high rate of progression and recurrence. This study examines the benefit of surgery after progression and identifies predictors of survival. Methods This is a single-institution retrospective cohort study of consecutive adult patients with anaplastic or grade 3 1p/19q co-deleted oligodendroglioma diagnosed between 2001 and 2020. Results Eighty patients with 1p/19q co-deleted grade 3 oligodendroglioma were included. The median age was 47 years (interquartile range 38-56) and 38.8% were women. All patients underwent surgery, including gross total resection (GTR) for 26.3% of patients, subtotal resection (STR) for 70.0% of patients, and biopsy for 3.8% of patients. Forty-three cases (53.8%) progressed at a median of 5.6 years, and the median overall survival (OS) was 14.1 years. Among 43 cases of progression or recurrence, 21 (48.8%) underwent another resection. Patients who underwent a second operation had improved OS (P = .041) and survival after progression/recurrence (P = .012), but similar time to subsequent progression as patients who did not have repeat surgery (P = .50). Predictors of mortality at initial diagnosis included a preoperative Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) under 80 (hazard ratio [HR] 5.4; 95% CI 1.5-19.2), an STR or biopsy rather than GTR (HR 4.1; 95% CI 1.2-14.2), and a persistent postoperative neurologic deficit (HR 4.0; 95% CI 1.2-14.1). Conclusions Repeat surgery is associated with increased survival, but not time to subsequent progression for progressing or recurrent 1p/19q co-deleted grade 3 oligodendrogliomas recur. Mortality is associated with a preoperative KPS under 80, lack of GTR, and persistent postoperative neurologic deficits after the initial surgery.

Relative T2-FLAIR signal intensity surrounding residual cavity is associated with survival prognosis in patients with lower-grade gliomas. Front Oncol 2022; 12:960917.

Abstract
Aims To investigate whether the relative signal intensity surrounding the residual cavity on T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (rFLAIR) can improve the survival prediction of lower-grade glioma (LGG) patients. Methods Clinical and pathological data and the follow-up MR imaging of 144 patients with LGG were analyzed. We calculated rFLAIR with Image J software. Logistic analysis was used to explore the significant impact factors on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Several models were set up to predict the survival prognosis of LGG. Results A higher rFLAIR [1.81 (0.83)] [median (IQR)] of non-enhancing regions surrounding the residual cavity was detected in the progressed group (n=77) than that [1.55 (0.33)] [median (IQR)] of the not-progressed group (n = 67) (P<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that lower KPS (≤75), and higher rFLAIR (>1.622) were independent predictors for poor PFS (P<0.05), whereas lower KPS (≤75) and thick-linear and nodular enhancement were the independent predictors for poor OS (P<0.05). The cutoff rFLAIR value of 1.622 could be used to predict poor PFS (HR = 0.31, 95%CI 0.20–0.48) (P<0.001) and OS (HR = 0.27, 95%CI 0.14–0.51) (P=0.002). Both the areas under the ROC curve (AUCs) for predicting poor PFS (AUC, 0.771) and OS (AUC, 0.831) with a combined model that contained rFLAIR were higher than those of any other models. Conclusion Higher rFALIR (>1.622) in non-enhancing regions surrounding the residual cavity can be used as a biomarker of the poor survival of LGG. rFLAIR is helpful to improve the survival prediction of posttreatment LGG patients.

Abstract
Purpose:
To investigate the predictor factors of mortality describing the prognosis of primary surgical resection of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM).
Materials and Methods:
A systemic search was conducted from electronic databases (PubMed/Medline, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar) from inception to 12th September 2021. All statistical analysis was conducted in Review Manager 5.4.1. Studies meeting inclusion criteria were selected. A random-effect model was used when heterogeneity was seen to pool the studies, and the result were reported in the Hazards Ratio (HR) and corresponding 95% Confidence interval (CI).
Result:
Twenty-three cohort studies were selected for meta-analysis. There was statistically significant effect of extent of resection on prognosis of surgery in GBM patients (HR= 0.90 [0.86, 0.95]; p< 0.0001; I2= 96%), male gender (HR= 1.19 [1.06, 1.34]; p= 0.002; I2= 0%) and decrease Karnofsky Performance Status (HR= 0.97 [0.95, 0.99]; p= 0.003; I2= 90%). Age and tumor volume was also analyzed in the study.
Conclusion:
The results of our meta-analysis suggested that age, gender, pre-operative KPS score and extent of resection have significant effects on the post-surgical mortality rate, therefore, these factors can be used significant predictor of mortality in GBM patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gliomas are one of the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system, and have an unfavorable prognosis. SLC39A1 is a zinc ion transport protein which inhibits the progression of prostate cancer. By studying the role and mechanism of SLC39A1 in the progression of gliomas, perhaps a new therapeutic target can be provided for their treatment. METHOD The TCGA, CCGA, GSE16011, GSE44971 and GSE11260 data sets were employed to evaluate the expression level of SLC39A1 in paracancerous and glioma tissues. In addition, Kaplan-Meier analysis, Cox analysis, and the ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT algorithms were used to analyze its prognostic value and immune infiltration correlation. A CCK-8 and flow cytometer were used to measure the effects of SLC39A1 on U87 cell proliferation or apoptosis; RT-qPCR and western blot were used to detect its effects on the expression of MMP2\MMP9. RESULTS SLC39A1 has up-regulated expression in glioma tissues. High SLC39A1 expression predicted significantly worse survival. Univariate and multivariate analysis show that SLC39A1 independently indicated poor prognosis in patients with gliomas. The expression of SLC39A1 is significantly correlated with clinical pathological parameters such as Grade, IDH mutation status, and 1p19q codeletion status. In vitro experimental results show that SLC39A1 promotes proliferation of glioma cells, inhibits their apoptosis, and promotes expression of MMP2\MMP9. In addition, it may affect infiltration of immune cells into the glioma microenvironment. CONCLUSION SLC39A1 may serve as a new prognostic biomarker and potential target for treatment of gliomas.
