    Prognostic factors in progressive high-grade glial tumors treated with systemic approach: A single center experience

    Purpose Malignant high-grade gliomas are the most common and aggressive type of primary brain tumor, and the prognosis is generally extremely poor. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the outcome of systemic treatment in recurrent high-grade glioma patients and the impact of prognostic factors on survivals. Methods Data from 114 patients with recurrent high-grade glioma who received systemic treatment and followed in our clinic between 2012 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, age, gender, histology, type of surgical resection, side effects after systemic treatment (deep vein thrombosis, hypertension, proteinuria), IDH1 and alpha thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome X-linked (ATRX) mutation status were investigated as prognostic factors for progression-free survival and overall survival. Results At the time of diagnosis, the median age was 48 (17-77) and 68% of the patients were male. Most common pathologic subtype was glioblastoma multiforme (68%). Median follow-up duration was 9.1 months (1-68 months). Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 6.2 months and 8 months, respectively. In multivariate analysis, ECOG PS, deep venous thrombosis and the presence of ATRX and IDH1 mutation were found to be independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (p < 0.05) and, ECOG PS, the presence of ATRX and IDH1 mutation for overall survival (p < 0.05). Conclusion Our study is real life data and the median progression-free survival and overall survival rates are similar to the literature. We have found ECOG PS, presence of ATRX and IDH1 mutation to be independent prognostic factors for both progression-free survival and overall survival.

    Effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on cerebral vasospasm: a vascular morphometric study in an experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage model
    (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2014) ZİYAL, MUSTAFA İBRAHİM; Celik, Ozgur; Bay, Husniye Hacioglu; Arslanhan, Ayca; Oroglu, Bengusu; Bozkurt, Suheyla Uyar; Sehirli, Umit Suleyman; Ziyal, Mustafa Ibrahim
    This study was undertaken to investigate the preventive or therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on cerebral vasospasm following experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Twenty rabbits were assigned randomly to one of four groups. Animals in Group I were not subjected to SAH or sham operation (control group, n = 5). Animals in Group II were subjected to sham operation and received no treatment after the procedure (sham group, n = 5). Animals in Group III were subjected to SAH and received no treatment after SAH induction (SAH group, n = 5). Animals in Group IV were subjected to SAH and received five sessions of HBOT at 2.4 atmospheres absolute (ATA) for 2 h (treatment group, n = 5). Animals were euthanized by perfusion and fixation 72 h after procedures. Basilar artery vasospasm indices, arterial wall thicknesses, and cross-sectional luminal areas were evaluated. Statistical comparisons were performed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests. Mean basilar artery vasospasm index in the treatment group was significantly smaller than in the SAH group. Mean basilar artery wall thickness in the treatment group was significantly smaller than in the SAH group. Mean basilar artery cross-sectional luminal area in the treatment group showed an increase relative to the SAH group, but this difference remained statistically insignificant. Our results demonstrated that repeated application of HBOT at 2.4 ATA for 2 h attenuated vasospastic changes such as increased vasospasm index and arterial wall thickness. HBOT is thus a promising candidate for SAH-induced vasospasm. Further studies are needed to evaluate maximal effect and optimal application regimen.
