Detection of Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Neurosurgery Patients (DT-MiNi)

Carotid Artery StenosisGlioma3 more

Plastic particles are a ubiquitous pollutant in the living environment and food chain, so far, plenty of studies have reported the internal exposure of microplastics and nanoplastics in human tissues and enclosed body fluids. Neurosurgery is the only department that can open the skull. In addition to blood and cerebrospinal fluid, there are brain tissue and tumors in the presence of lesions. Whether any of these microplastics and nanoplastics are present remains a mystery. This prospective observational study will harvest biological samples of neurosurgery patients. The objective of this research is to be able to detect microplastics and nanoplastics on blood and operation samples of neurosurgery patients.

Imaging Features for the Risks for Recurrence After Stereotactic Radiosurgery in Brain Metastasis...

Brain MetastasesRadiosurgery

This trial uses multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to develop and validate imaging risk score to predict radiation necrosis in participants with brain metastasis treated with radiation therapy. Diagnostic procedures, such as multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), may improve the ability to diagnose radiation necrosis early and help establish treatment strategies.

Accuracy of Robotically Assisted Cranial Biopsies

Intracranial Neoplasm

This is an observational post-market study determining biopsy accuracy in a clinical environment using Cirq® Robotic Alignment Module Cranial. The goal is to determine whether the robotic procedure to be examined can achieve a clinically acceptable value of at least 90% in terms of diagnostic yield.

Prospective Evaluation of AI R&D Tool in Adult Glioma and Other Primary Brain Tumours (PEAR-GLIO)...

Brain TumorGlioma4 more

Pear Bio has developed a 3D microtumor assay and computer vision pipeline through which the response of an individual patient's tumor to different anti-cancer regimens can be tested simultaneously ex vivo. This study will recruit patients with primary brain tumors who are due to undergo surgery. Oncologists will be blinded to treatment response on the Pear Bio tool (the assay will be run in parallel with the patient's treatment). The primary objective of this study is to establish the ex vivo model and confirm whether approved therapies exhibit their intended mechanism of action in the model. Secondary objectives include correlating test results to patient outcomes, where available.

Relationship of PNI and Clinical Outcome in Patients Undergoing Brain Tumor Surgery

Clinical Outcome

There are several predictors of clinical outcome in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery. Among those, nutritional parameters and calculated nutritional index are known to have ability to predict mortality and clinical outcomes in some patients with brain tumor. However, there are lack of consistent results on predictability of nutritional index and clinical outcome in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery.

Effect of Propofol-Dexmedetomidine on Cerebral Oxygenation and Metabolism During Brain Tumor Resection...

Brain TumorSurgery

Despite theoretical benefits of intravenous agents, volatile agents remain popular. In a study comparing desflurane, isoflurane, and sevoflurane in a porcine model of intracranial hypertension, at equipotent doses and normocapnia, cerebral blood flow (CBF) and intra-cranial pressure (ICP) were least with sevoflurane. Propofol is the most commonly used intravenous anesthetic. It has many theoretical advantages by reducing cerebral blood volume (CBV) and ICP and preserving both autoregulation and vascular reactivity. Neurosurgical patients anaesthetized with propofol were found to have lower ICP and higher CPP than those anaesthetized with isoflurane or sevoflurane. The well known pharmacodynamic advantages of intravenous anesthetics may give this group of drugs superior cerebral effects when compared with inhalation anesthetics.

Effectiveness of Musical Training in Children Surviving Brain Tumours

Brain NeoplasmsChild

This study aims to examine the effects of musical training on improving the neurocognitive function and psychological well-being of children surviving brain tumours. Half of the participants will receive weekly 45-minute lessons on musical training for one year (52 weeks) while the other half are the placebo controls.

Application of Palliative Treatment in Children With Brain Stem Glioma and Recurrent High-grade...

Brain TumorPediatric4 more

This Protocol is a pilot, clinical interventional study to selected patients between five and fourteen years of both sexes, carriers of the diagnosis of glioma brain stem and high grade recurrent in the central nervous system tumors, in whom there has been no response to conventional-based surgery/radiation/chemotherapy treatment or whose location does not allow treatment with conventional measures, and that already have an indication for a neurosurgical palliative procedure. It will be a close pharmacovigilance on possible adverse effects related to the nanomaterial based on the profile of cisplatin (chemotherapeutic platinum derivative), since documented toxicity data are not counted for NPt-Ca. Quality of life will be documented with PedsQL Cancer Module© and tumor size by magnetic resonance brain images.
