Background: Brain cancer is one of the worst types of cancer worldwide. Understanding the epidemiology of CNS cancer is critical for properly allocating healthcare resources.

Methods: We collected data on CNS cancer deaths in Wuhan, China, during 2010-2019. We constructed the cause-eliminated life tables to calculate life expectancy (LE), mortality, and years of life lost (YLLs) by age and sex. The BAPC model was used to forecast the future trends of age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR). Decomposition analysis was adopted to explore the contribution of population growth, population aging, and age-specific mortality to the change in total CNS cancer deaths.

Results: In 2019, the ASMR of CNS cancer was 3.75, and the ASYR was 135.70 in Wuhan, China. ASMR was expected to decrease to 3.43 in 2024. The age distribution of deaths due to CNS cancer was concentrated in the middle-aged and older population, with a peak in the 65-69 age group. Caidian, Jianghan, and Qingshan had the greatest ASMRs in 2019 in Wuhan, with ASMRs of 6.32, 4.78, and 4.75, respectively. Population aging is critical to the change in total CNS cancer deaths.

Conclusion: We analyzed the current status, temporal trends, and gender and age distributions of the burden of CNS cancer in Wuhan, during 2010-2019, providing a valuable reference for better lessening the CNS cancer burden.

Objectives: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced protein homeostasis perturbation is a core pathological element in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. This study aims to clarify the unique role played by C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) as a biomarker of the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the etiology of chronic pain and related cognitive impairments following chronic constrictive nerve injury (CCI).

Methods: The memory capability following CCI was assessed utilizing the Morris water maze (MWM) and fear conditioning test (FCT).

Plasmacytoid blast dendritic cell neoplasm is a rare subtype of acute leukaemia that represents less than 1% of haematologic neoplasms. It is characterised by skin involvement and leukaemic dissemination in the rest of the body. The immunophenotype is represented by the expression of CD4, CD56 and CD123.

Spread of lung cancer to the leptomeninges is rare and difficult to treat. Standard therapy comprises CNS-penetrant targeted agents with or without intrathecal chemotherapy. We performed a retrospective analysis of 16 patients with advanced NSCLC and leptomeningeal disease treated with intrathecal pemetrexed 50 mg.

Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a common and highly aggressive brain tumor with a poor prognosis. However, the prognostic value of ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) and their classification remains insufficiently studied.

Objective: This study aims to explore the significance of ferroptosis classification and its risk model in GBM using multi-omics approaches and to evaluate its potential in prognostic assessment.
