Longitudinal impact of intracerebral low-grade glioma disease on health-related quality of life
CONCLUSIONS: Low-grade glioma disease has a significant impact on HRQOL and treatment might contribute to further deterioration. New-onset neurological deficits and ongoing epileptic seizures are predictors of limitations in quality of life. Since the results are based on a small cohort with limited follow-up time, the generalizability of these statements is limited and further studies are required.PMID:38483435 | DOI:10.23736/S0390-5616.23.06107-6 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgical Sciences)

The western giants of neuroanatomical past: an ode to yesterday - Part I
J Neurosurg Sci. 2024 Mar 12. doi: 10.23736/S0390-5616.24.06223-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACT"The only history is a mere question of one's struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander to do," said David H. Lawrence. In this historical vignette, we look at the lives of certain western giants of neuroanatomy from the past. To understand the origin of today's advancements and successes in neurosurgery, a strong foothold on the path taken by anatomical greats is necessary. What curiosity inspired them to ...

Frailty predicts non-home discharge in anterior lumbar interbody fusion patients
CONCLUSIONS: Frailty, as measured by mFI-5 and RAI-rev, was associated with an increased likelihood of NHD in patients who underwent ALIF. This finding supports recent literature on the promising utility of these indices, especially the RAI-rev, in preoperative decision-making across multiple facets of neurosurgery.PMID:38451062 | DOI:10.23736/S0390-5616.24.06179-4 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgical Sciences)

Pycnogenol ® improves cognitive function in post-stroke patients: a 6 month-study
CONCLUSIONS: In post-stroke subjects, Pycnogenol® supplementation resulted in better recovery outcome and faster COFU 'normalization' after the stroke in comparison with SM; it can be considered a safe, manageable post-stroke, adjuvant management possibly reducing local brain edema. Nevertheless, more patients and a longer period of evaluation are needed to confirm these results.PMID:38299491 | DOI:10.23736/S0390-5616.22.05855-6 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgical Sciences)
