BACKGROUND: Diagnostic neuroimaging plays an essential role in guiding clinical decision-making in the management of patients with cerebral aneurysms. Imaging technologies for investigating cerebral aneurysms constantly evolve, and clinicians rely on the published literature to remain up to date. Reporting guidelines have been developed to standardise and strengthen the reporting of clinical evidence. Therefore, it is essential that radiological diagnostic accuracy studies adhere to such guidelines to ensure completeness of reporting...

INTRODUCTION: Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) carries a high mortality rate, with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and hemodialysis being risk factors for early mortality. However, the role of admission serum creatinine in ICH prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between admission serum creatinine levels and short-term ICH prognosis in non-hemodialysis-dependent patients. METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed 296 adult patients admitted with spontaneous supratentorial ICH...

Overall survival (OS)for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has a known association with the extent of tumor resection with gross total resection (GTR) typically considered as the upper limit. In certain regions such as the anterior temporal lobe, more extensive resection by means of a lobectomy may be feasible. In our systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to compare the outcomes of lobectomy and GTR for GBM. PubMed and Embase were queriedfor studies that compared the outcomes after lobectomy or GTR for GBM...

The diagnosis of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and early identification of patients who have persistent symptoms remains challenging. Symptoms are variably reported, and tests for cognitive impairment require specific expertise. The aim of this study was to assess the ability of plasma micro-ribonucleic acid (miRNA) biomarkers to distinguish between patients with mTBI and healthy controls. A secondary aim was to assess whether miRNA biomarker levels on the day of injury could predict persistent symptoms on day 7...

BACKGROUND: Visual evoked potential (VEP) recording is traditionally regarded as an unreliable evoked potential monitoring technique, precluding widespread use in intracranial neurosurgery. However, VEPs can serve as a useful intraoperative adjunct for real-time detection of mechanical damage to optic apparatuses. The low obtainability and prognostic utility of VEPs are associated with transcranial recording, which typically provides non-focal information and poor signal-to-noise ratio...
