Acute and fractionated irradiation differentially modulate glioma stem cell division kinetics

TL;DR: It is hypothesize a constitutive activation of stem cell division kinetics signaling pathways during fractionated treatment, which contributes to the frequently observed accelerated repopulation after therapeutic irradiation.

Management and survival rates in patients with glioma in China (2004–2010): a retrospective study from a single-institution

TL;DR: Age, preoperative Karnofsky performance scale (KPS), pathological type, radiotherapy, O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) expression and Ki-67 expression, were significant associated with OS in multivariate analyses; and preoperative KPS and radiotherapy were significantly associated with progression-free survival (PFS).

Malignant Gliomas in Adults

TL;DR: The authors found that approximately 5% of patients with malignant gliomas have a family history of glioma and most of these familial cases are associated with rare genetic syndromes, such as neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2, the Li−Fraumeni syndrome (germ-line p53 mutations associated with an increased risk of several cancers), and Turcot's syndrome (intestinal polyposis and brain tumors).

Fluorescence-guided surgery with 5-aminolevulinic acid for resection of malignant glioma: a randomised controlled multicentre phase III trial.

TL;DR: Tumour fluorescence derived from 5-aminolevulinic acid enables more complete resections of contrast-enhancing tumour, leading to improved progression-free survival in patients with malignant glioma.
