Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to improve patient selection for further treatment after meningioma surgery by developing a predictive scoring system based on various clinical and histological factors.
  • Researchers analyzed data from 378 patients to identify key variables related to tumor recurrence and created a logistic regression model that categorizes patients into low, intermediate, and high-risk groups.
  • The predictive model demonstrated good accuracy in identifying patients at risk for recurrence, suggesting it can be a helpful tool for guiding further molecular testing and treatment decisions in a clinical setting.

New onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is a rare and devastating condition occurring in a previously healthy patient. It is called febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) when preceded by a febrile infection. It often leads to intensive care treatment, including antiseizure drugs in combination with anesthetic agents, and sometimes ketogenic diet.

Article Synopsis
  • * The majority of the patients had severe COVID-19, with 90% showing abnormal ASL perfusion, particularly hypoperfusion in the temporal poles and frontal lobes, even if traditional MRI scans appeared normal.
  • * The findings highlight that over 80% of these patients exhibited significant brain perfusion deficits, suggesting that neurological complications in COVID-19 can occur independently of visible lesions on standard MRI scans.

Introduction: Ever since the beginning of cerebral bypass surgery, the role of the bypass has been debated and indications have changed over the last 5 decades. This systematic literature research analysed all clinical studies on cerebral bypass that have been published from January 1959 to January 2020 for their year of publication, country of origin, citation index, role of and indication for bypass, bypass technique, revascularized territory, flow capacity, and title (for word cloud analysis per decade).

Methods: A systematic literature research was conducted using PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and SCOPUS databases.

Background: Neurosurgical resection is the mainstay of meningioma treatment. Adverse event (AE) rates of meningioma resections are significant, but preoperative risk factors for major AEs in patients undergoing first-time meningioma surgery are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to explore major AEs and identify preoperative risk factors in patients undergoing first-time meningioma surgery.
