Background And Aim: Elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), a marker of tumor aggressiveness and metabolic alterations, may predict treatment response and overall survival across various tumors. This study investigates the correlation between serum LDH levels and clinical outcomes in glioblastoma patients treated with radiotherapy (RT) and temozolomide (TMZ).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study analysed patients with IDH wild-type glioblastoma (IDH-wt GB) treated at the Radiotherapy Department of Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Senese from 2018 to 2023.
Background And Aim: Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) is an established treatment for melanoma brain metastases (MBM). Recent evidence suggests that perilesional edema volume (PEV) might compromise the delivery and efficacy of radiotherapy to treat BM. This study investigated the association between SRT efficacy and PEV extent in MBM.

Central apneas during wakefulness have been reported in patients with CDKL5 deficiency disorder. Studies on CDKL5-knockout mice, a CDKL5 deficiency disorder model, reported sleep apneas, but it is still unclear whether these events are central (central sleep apnea) or obstructive (obstructive sleep apnea) and may be related to alterations of brain circuits that modulate breathing rhythm.

- The study aimed to create an Italian version of the Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ) to assess how chronic cough affects patients' daily lives.
- Sixty-five patients completed the LCQ, along with other measurements, over two visits spaced eight weeks apart, ensuring reliable comparisons.
- Results showed strong correlations between the LCQ, cough severity, and disturbance scores, indicating that the Italian LCQ is valid and beneficial for measuring chronic cough's impact.
