Progress in molecular markers associated with radiotherapy efficacy in glioma. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
These advances underscore the transformative potential of biomarker-guided precision radiotherapy, enabling tailored interventions that counteract resistance mechanisms and synergize with immunotherapies. By bridging molecular insights with clinical innovation, this paradigm shift promises to redefine glioma management, offering renewed hope for overcoming therapeutic recalcitrance in this devastating malignancy.

MixBranchNet: a task-adaptive network for glioma segmentation and genotype prediction by exploiting spatial-spectral correlations in CEST MRI. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
All results significantly exceeded the performance of conventional CEST quantification techniques and existing deep learning-based models developed for CEST analysis (p < 0.05). MixBranchNet establishes a methodological foundation for spatial-spectral deep learning in CEST MRI and demonstrates encouraging performance for glioma segmentation and genotype prediction within the current single-center cohort.

Primary Gliosarcoma With Mesenchymal Differentiation Resembling Follicular Dendritic Cell Sarcoma. (PubMed, Neuropathology)
This case represents the first documented instance of primary gliosarcoma with FDCS differentiation, thereby expanding its known differentiation spectrum. Furthermore, it demonstrates the necessity of separately analyzing each histological component in the diagnosis of challenging cases.

Glioblastoma: epidemiology, molecular pathogenesis, diagnosis, management, and therapeutic resistance. (PubMed, Mol Biomed)
However, current standard of care treatments such as surgical resection, radiotherapy, temozolomide, and tumor treating fields have reached a therapeutic plateau, highlighting the urgent need for new therapeutic strategies...We further synthesize recent advances in spatial and longitudinal profiling technologies to describe the dynamic tumor immune ecosystem. We discuss how spatial compartmentalization and evolutionary processes collectively drive immune escape and therapeutic resistance, and highlight emerging strategies including adaptive immunotherapy, precision targeted delivery, and multimodal monitoring to overcome these challenges.

A methodological assessment of information complementarity between MRI and GAN-based synthetic PET for multimodal medical image analysis. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
This limited contribution likely reflects the fact that synthetic PET is derived from MRI and cannot capture true tracer-driven metabolic or molecular information. These findings highlight the need to validate information complementarity before integrating synthesized modalities into clinical workflows.
