Introduction: Radiotherapy-related damage of normal tissue inevitably influences the treatment outcomes in the context of high-grade gliomas (HGGs) treatment. We reported the survival outcomes and toxicities of patients with HGG treated with helical tomotherapy (HT) and the prognostic factors were analyzed.

Materials And Methods: A total of 67 patients (29 had grade III and 38 had grade IV HGGs) who received HT between January 2016 and June 2020 were analyzed.

Liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a pathological process involving multiple injury factors and cell types, with different stages. Currently, protective drugs targeting a single condition are limited in efficacy, and interventions on immune cells will also be accompanied by a series of side effects. In the current bottleneck research stage, the multi-target and obvious clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine (CM) is expected to become a breakthrough point in the research and development of new drugs.

Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the effects of changes in the gross tumor volume (GTV) on dose distribution in organs at risk (OARs) and healthy brain tissue in patients with gliomas.

Methods: Eleven patients suffering from gliomas with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans treated with a simultaneous integrated boost technique planned before therapy (initial plans) were prospectively enrolled. At the end of radiotherapy, patients underwent repeat computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, and IMRT was replanned.
