【摘要】 目的 探讨成人幕上低级别胶质瘤（WHO Ⅱ级）患者术后生活质量的影响因素。 方法 回顾性分析2008年10月—2010年5月经手术切除病变、术后病理证实为低级别胶质瘤的115例患者临床资料，术后随访6~24个月。以患者年龄、性别、主要临床症状、病变部位、病变大小及病理结果为自变量，以术后Karnofsky评分（KPS）改善为因变量，采用Logistic回归分析研究相关影响因素。采用秩和检验比较不同组间KPS差异。 结果 随访至术后6个月，患者年龄、病变大小、病变部位、切除范围以及是否有癫痫史在KPS比较中，其结果有统计学意义（Plt;0.05）。随访至术后12个月，切除范围和癫痫史对KPS评分已无影响（Pgt;0.05）。病理类型、术前是否存在神经功能障碍与术后KPS改善在单因素和多因素比较中无统计学意义。 结论 患者年龄≤50岁、术前有癫痫史、肿瘤直径≤4 cm、病变表浅、肿瘤全切除的患者术后KPS改善好于年龄gt;50岁、术前无癫痫史、肿瘤直径gt;4 cm、病变深在、肿瘤次全切除的患者。患者术前是否存在神经功能障碍和病理类型与术后生活质量是否改善无明显关系。复发也是影响患者术后KPS改善的因素。【Abstract】 Objective To assess the quality of life in adults with surgically managed cerebral supratentorial low grade glioma (WHO grade Ⅱ) and the relevant factors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 115 patients with histologically proven supratentorial low grade glioma enrolled at West China Hosptial from October 2008 to May 2010. Follow-up lasted for 6 to 24 months after operation. Logisitc regression analysis is used to test the relevant factors with age, gender, main clinical manifestations, lesion location, lesion size and pathological results as the independent variables, and Kamofsky postoperative scale (KPS) scores as dependent variable. KPS scores of different groups were analyzed using the rank test. Results After 6 months of follow-up, we found that age, size, location, extent of surgical excision and eplispy history showed a statistical significance in KPS comparison (Plt;0.05). Till the 12th month in the follow-up, the extent of surgical excision and eplispy history were not statistically significant any more (Pgt;0.05). Histology type and neurological deficit had no relationship with KPS improvement in both single factor analysis and multivariate analysis. Conclusions Patients with an age older than 50 years, preoperative epilepsy history, the largest diameter of the tumor less than 4 cm, shallow lesions, and complete tumor resection have a better KPS improvement after operation than those with corresponding opposite conditions. There is no obvious relationship between histology type, neurologic deficits and KPS improvement after operation. Recurrence is also a factor influencing KPS improvement after operation.
Tripartite motif 5 (TRIM5) plays a significant function in autophagy and involves in immune and tumor processes. While the function of TRIM5 remains poorly understood in glioma. We purpose to evaluate the possible prognostic role of TRIM5 in glioma via bioinformatics analyses. The database clinical samples of glioma in this study included low grade glioma (LGG) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). TRIM5 expression in glioma tissues were explored in Oncomine, GEPIA and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases. Survival analysis and the multivariate Cox regression analysis of TRIM5 based on TCGA were used to evaluate the prognostic role of TRIM5. The protein networks of TRIM5 was detected by STRING database. KEGG enrichment analyses were performed to predict the potential molecular pathways of TRIM5 in glioma. In addition, immune infiltration analysis was conducted by CIBERSORT and TIMER databases. We found that TRIM5 was strongly increased in glioma samples compared with normal samples in Oncomine, GEPIA and TCGA databases. Higher TRIM5 was significantly contributed to worse overall survival (OS) in LGG+GBM patients and LGG patients, while was no correlated with OS of GBM patients. Interaction networks analysis identified that IRF3, IRF7, OAS1, OAS2, OAS3, OASL, GBP1, PML, BTBD1 and BTBD2 proteins were contacted with TRIM5. Moreover, KEGG revealed that apoptosis and cancer- and immune-related pathways were enriched with elevated TRIM5. Specifically, TRIM5 could influence the immune infiltration levels, such as activated NK cells, monocytes, activated mast cells and macrophages in glioma. In conclusion, our data indicated that TRIM5 was upregulated in glioma tissues and associated with poor prognosis and immune infiltration. TRIM5 may be acted as a biomarker in prognosis and immunotherapy guidance of glioma.
Optic nerve glioma (ONG) is a rare central nervous system tumor that occurs in children and adolescents. It’s main pathological type is low-grade pilocytic astrocytoma. It is divided into sporadic ONG and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) related ONG. Due to the close relationship between ONG and the optic nerve, there is its particularity in diagnosis and treatment. The diagnosis of ONG mainly relies on medical history, symptoms and signs, as well as imaging examinations such as MRI and CT. ONG should be differentiated from optic nerve sheath meningioma, optic neuritis, optic nerve metastasis and other diseases. In recent years, newly discovered molecular targeted therapy and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs are a powerful supplement to ONG. When chemotherapy is not sensitive or resistant, radiotherapy can be considered, but it is only recommended for patients over 7 years of age. Surgery can be considered when the patient’s visual impairment is severe and the appearance of the eye is significantly affected. In addition, due to the susceptibility of NF-1 patients to tumors, the chemotherapy regimen should take into account the risk of secondary leukemia caused by the drug, and the timing of radiotherapy should be after the age of 10. We look forward to further ONG clinical research, which will bring more references for future clinical work.
