1229-Prognostic Human Brain Network for Midline Glioma
This scientific report introduces a novel tumour network mapping technique to study diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs), which are aggressive and often fatal pediatric brain tumours. By analyzing clinical data and brain scans, researchers identified a specific prognostic brain network where higher connectivity correlates with significantly shorter patient survival. The study suggests that these tumours grow by exploiting healthy neural circuits through synaptic connections, rather than relying solely on the primary site of the lesion. Validation across multiple patient groups confirmed that…
