The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in patients with supratentorial brain tumours. The main questions it aims to answer is: Can short-term preoperative walking exercise protect cognitive function in the short term after craniotomy in patients with supratentorial brain tumor and reduce the incidence of surgery-related complications? Participants will be asked to receive general care and regular walking exercises prior to surgery. Researchers will compare patients who receive only general care before surgery to see if preoperative walking exercise has an effect on postoperative prognosis.
This study is being conducted to explore the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant toripalimab combined with temozolomide in resectable stage III melanoma.
The pineal region and brainstem tumors are located at the central position of the cranial cavity, surrounded by important neural structures and venous systems, leading to challenges in preoperative diagnosis, adding uncertainty and complexity to treatment. For a long time, surgical treatment of pineal region and brainstem tumors has been one of the most challenging areas in neurosurgery. With the development of neuroendoscopy and virtual endoscopy technologies, how to convert complex three-dimensional bone, vascular, and neural images into virtual endoscopic images and how to combine virtual endoscopy with neuro-navigation for endoscopic skull base surgery to provide...
The body's biological functions follow a circadian rhythm, meaning that individual biological functions in the body change over a 24-hour cycle. There is evidence suggesting that the body and cancer cells may react differently to anti-cancer treatment based on the time of day they are exposed. In fact, researchers have already found that giving anti-cancer treatments at a particular time of the day works better in rectal and ovarian cancer. Temozolomide (TMZ) is a chemotherapy pill/capsule commonly given to patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma after brain surgery and radiation treatment. However, there is no current standard for what time of day TMZ should be taken for...
Medical treatments have improved survival rates for children with brain tumours. However, most children experience long-term difficulties with 'cognition' (thinking skills such as memory and paying attention) and cognitive fatigue (excessive mental tiredness) after treatment. Thinking difficulties and fatigue can affect a child's ability to learn, and their social and emotional wellbeing. National guidance recommends treatment called 'cognitive rehabilitation' which teaches skills to improve or manage cognitive difficulties. Families often request this, but it is not usually available due to little research. Fatigue may also get in the way of children using and benefiting from...
In this study, the research team will investigate the incidence and etiology of olfactory dysfunction following endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery, by combining clinical assessments with histomolecular analysis.
This study aims to evaluate the effect of Greater Occipital Nerve and Stellate Ganglion block treatments on sleep in patients with chronic headaches. Patients will be assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Insomnia Severity Index, and Visual Analog Scale at the time of treatment and at 4 and 8 weeks post-procedure. The study will compare the sleep improvement effects of both treatments to help guide clinicians in selecting the most effective interventional method. Demographic and clinical data will also be collected and analyzed for statistical comparison.
The goal of this study is to investigate the incidence and risk factors of central nervous system adverse events of Lorlatinib in patients with ALK-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the diagnostic value of preoperative MRI examination for adult-type diffuse gliomas. The main question it aims to answer is: - Can preoperative MRI examination noninvasively predict genotype of gliomas? - Can preoperative MRI examination noninvasively predict the overall survival of gliomas? - Can preoperative MRI examination noninvasively predict Ki-67 proliferation status?
This study was designed as a prospective observational study.
