Brain metastatic cancer poses a significant clinical challenge, with limited treatment options and poor prognosis for patients. In recent years, immunotherapy has emerged as a promising strategy for addressing brain metastases, offering distinct advantages over conventional treatments. This review explores the evolving landscape of tumor immunotherapy in the context of brain metastatic cancer, focusing on the intricate interplay between the tumor microenvironment (TME) and immunotherapeutic approaches. By elucidating the complex interactions within the TME, including the role of immune cells, cytokines, and extracellular matrix components, this review highlights the potential of immunotherapy to reshape the treatment paradigm for brain metastases. Leveraging immune checkpoint inhibitors, cellular immunotherapies, and personalized treatment strategies, immunotherapy holds promise in overcoming the challenges posed by the blood-brain barrier and immunosuppressive microenvironment of brain metastases. Through a comprehensive analysis of current research findings and future directions, this review underscores the transformative impact of immunotherapy on the management of brain metastatic cancer, offering new insights and opportunities for personalized and precise therapeutic interventions.

Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is the most common neurological adverse event among elderly patients undergoing surgery. POD is associated with an increased risk for postoperative complications, long-term cognitive decline, an increase in morbidity and mortality as well as extended hospital stays. Delirium prevention and treatment options are currently limited.

The PSH-Assessment Measure (PSH-AM) consists of a Clinical Features Scale and a diagnosis likelihood tool (DLT) intended to quantify the severity of sympathetically mediated symptoms and the likelihood that they are due to PSH, respectively, on a daily basis. Here, we aim to identify and explore the value of dynamic trends in the evolution of sympathetic hyperactivity following acute TBI using elements of the PSH-AM.

A wide range of acute brain injuries, including both traumatic and non-traumatic causes, can result in elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), which in turn can cause further secondary injury to the brain, initiating a vicious cascade of propagating injury. Elevated ICP is therefore a neurological injury that requires intensive monitoring and time-sensitive interventions. Patients at high risk for developing elevated ICP undergo placement of invasive ICP monitors including external ventricular drains, intraparenchymal ICP monitors, and lumbar drains.
