Article Abstract
With the advances in sequencing technologies and genome-wide association studies (GWAS), several inherited variants that increase glioma risk have been identified. Ten studies including 8818 cases and 17,551 controls were collected to conduct a meta-analysis to evaluate the associations between 6 variants in 8q24 and glioma risk. Of the 6 variants located in 8q24, 2 have strong significant associations with the risk of glioma, including rs4295627 (P = .003, odds ratio [OR] = 1.21), rs55705857 (P = 2.31 × 10, OR = 3.54). In particular, both homozygous GG (P = 1.91 × 10, OR1 = 2.01) and heterozygous GT (P = 7.75 × 10, OR2 = 1.35) genotypes of rs4295627 were associated with glioma risk. Further studies are needed to explore the role of the 8q24 variants involved in the etiology of glioma.

Background: Among childhood cancer survivors, germline rare variants in autosomal dominant cancer susceptibility genes (AD CSGs) could increase subsequent neoplasm (SNs) risks, but risks for rarer SNs and by age at onset are not well understood.
Methods: We pooled the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study and St Jude Lifetime Cohort (median follow-up = 29.7 years, range 7.
Role of patient frailty in resection of newly diagnosed motor eloquent glioblastomas guided by a navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation and tractography approach.

Department of Neurosurgery, Paracelsus Medical University, Breslauer Straße 201, 90471, Nuremberg, Bavaria, Germany.
Purpose: Resection of glioblastomas infiltrating the motor cortex and corticospinal tract (CST) is often linked to increased perioperative morbidity. Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) motor mapping has been advocated to increase patient safety in these cases. The additional impact of patient frailty on overall outcome after resection of cases with increased risk for postoperative motor deficits as identified with nTMS needs to be investigated.

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is an extremely aggressive brain tumor, marked by restricted therapeutic possibilities and a generally unfavorable prognosis. GBM's complexity and heterogeneity necessitate comprehensive genetic and immunological profiling to enhance therapeutic strategies.
Methods: The study integrated The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Integrative Epidemiology Unit Open Genome-Wide Association Studies (IEU OpenGWAS) data to identify genetic factors influencing GBM using expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) and genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

To explore the effect of brain cognitive compensation on the pathogenesis of postoperative delirium (POD) in the frontal glioma patients. Eighty-four adult patients with unilateral frontal glioma who underwent elective craniotomy and 37 healthy controls were recruited. Primary outcomes were POD during postoperative 1-7 days, as assessed by Confusion Assessment Method.
