Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on identifying subgroups of glioblastoma (GBM) patients that might respond differently to two types of radiotherapy: standard radiotherapy (SRT) and hypofractionated radiotherapy (HRT), to facilitate personalized treatment decisions.
- - Researchers analyzed data from 159 patients, creating 48 subgroups based on five key factors (age, sex, surgical resection extent, chemotherapy, and functional status) to evaluate differences in cancer-specific survival (CSS) between the two treatment groups.
- - Results indicated that SRT was only better than HRT for CSS in three specific patient clusters, while the majority of the analyzed subgroups showed no significant differences in survival outcomes, suggesting the need for a tailored approach
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most prevalent malignant tumor of the brain in adults with the inherent aggressive behavior and high recurrence rate. The stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is currently considered as one of the effective modalities for GBM treatment allowing for the improvement of survival with the acceptable toxicity level.
Aim: To assess the effects of various factors on the survival of GBM patients following SRS.
Aim: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of digital breast tomosynthesis compared with full-field digital mammography in detection of breast cancer presenting as a mass in women with dense breasts. Маterials and Methods: This study included 347 asymptomatic and symptomatic patients with dense breasts who underwent full-field digital mammography, digital breast tomosynthesis and hand-held full breast ultrasound. 57 core-needle biopsies were performed.

Materials And Methods: 302 glioblastoma patients were treated at the State Institution "Romodanov Institute of Neurosurgery of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine" from 2003 through 2017. All the patients were surgically treated.
