Purpose: Liquid biopsy of cyst fluid in brain tumors has not been extensively studied to date. The present study was performed to see whether diagnostic genetic alterations found in brain tumor tissue DNA could also be detected in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) of cyst fluid in cystic brain tumors.
Methods: Cyst fluid was obtained from 22 patients undergoing surgery for a cystic brain tumor with confirmed genetic alterations in tumor DNA.
Background: Germinomatous germ cell tumor is highly sensitive to chemoradiotherapy; patients are expected to survive for decades. Many radiation-induced malignant gliomas (RIMGs) occur >10 years after radiotherapy. Standard therapy for RIMGs has not been established because of the lesion's rarity, the patient's shorter survival period, and the risk of radiation necrosis by repeat radiation.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) may cause daytime sleepiness, mood changes and dysfunction in various cognitive areas due to recurrent arousals and / or chronic intermittent hypoxia. Different possibilities have been proposed regarding the most affected cognitive areas and mechanisms of OSAS. However, it is difficult to compare findings of the different studies due to the fact that individuals with different disease severities were included in the study groups.

In this study, we investigate the correlation between soluble C-type lectin-like receptor (sCLEC-2) levels and PDPN expression in patients with high grade gliomas and the relationship between sCLEC-2 levels and the occurrence of VTE.
Materials And Methods: Forty-four patients harboring high grade gliomas, treated surgically at the Department of Neurosurgery, Niigata University from April 2018 to August 2020, were included.

Objective: This study compared clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in patients with anterior disk displacement without reduction (ADDWOR) who improved to anterior disk displacement with reduction (ADDWR) vs. patients who did not improve after mandibular manipulation (MM) and conservative self-administered physical therapy (CSAPT).
Study Design: Of 15 patients diagnosed with ADDWOR by MRI, 7 improved to ADDWR (WOR-WR) and 8 did not improve (WOR-WOR).
