A lit review by Price et al. on spinal ependymomas demonstrated that treatment is centered around maximal safe resection but lifelong surveillance is recommended as recurrence varies by EOR and molecular subtype. Read more at: link.springer.com/article/10…

ALT "Even in structural etiologies, ASySs bear a relatively low risk of later unprovoked seizures. There is still no evidence favoring prolonged ASM treatments. These findings may help preventing ASM overtreatment and guide counseling on driving eligibility."

Nice review of the Role and Usage of Corticosteroids in Modern Neuro-Oncology Care
Decadron for brain tumors (mostly gliomas) is essentially a #neurocriticalcare tool to help someone get through a tight spot with regard to acute swelling and mass effect.
Use the lowest effective dose.
Preferably once a day but if BID make the 2nd dose early like 3PM because actually interferes with sleep. (I know from experience treating a knee injury skiing. It made me a manic insomniac).
Stop decadron as soon as possible. Long term use can be toxic — muscle wasting, hyperglycemia, infections and the like.

Different vascular territories in the brain can give rise to distinct stroke syndromes, with characteristic patterns of neurological impairment.
Some stroke syndromes can be life-threatening, reinforcing the importance of clinicians recognizing and responding to stroke syndromes where they are present in the treatment of acute stroke.

Singnurkar et al. found that ¹⁸F-FET-PET/MRI identified larger radiotherapy target volumes than conventional MRI in patients with high-grade glioma, with gross tumor volume discordance observed in 56.7% of patients.

How can we move from hearing #stroke survivor voices to ensuring they have meaningful influence?
Research presented at #ESOC2026 explores how survivors can become equal partners in shaping stroke care, research and policy.
