objective: human cytomegalovirus (hcmv) is a beta-herpesvirus that causes persistent infection in humans, as well as severe disease in fetuses and immunocompromised individuals. although hcmv is not currently causally implicated in human cancer, emerging evidence suggests that hcmv infection may be specifically associated with malignancies such as gliomas. gliomas are one of the most common bra...

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) causes persistent infection in humans and severe diseases in fetus andimmunocompromised individuals. Although HCMV is not currently implicated in human cancer, emerging evidence suggests that HCMV infection might be specifically associated with some human malignancies including glioma. Glioma is one of the most common brain tumors affecting children and adults. In t...

background and objectives: gliomas are the most prevalent primary brain tumors. the purpose of this retrospective cohort study was evaluation of clinical trend and prognosis of patients with brain glioma and effective factors in prognosis. materials and methods: hundred and forty-five patients with supratentorial brain glioma, treated in shahid mostafa khomeini & hazrat-e-rasool hospitals i...

retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular neoplasm in children. glial tumor of the retina and optic nerve head are considered to be congenital and are therefore classified as hamartomas. concurrent occurrence of these tumors in one eye is uncommon and by reviewing the studies, a few cases have been reported. we report a 9 years old boy with eye enucleation and concurrent occurrence of retin...

background: these findings from several observational studies, investigated the association between red meat consumption and gliomas, were inconsistent. we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies to summarize available date on the relation between meat intake and risk of glioma. materials and methods: a systematic literature search of relevant reports published ...

background : glioblastoma multiforme (gbm) or grade iv astrocytoma is the most common and lethal adult malignant brain tumor. several of the molecular alterations detected in gliomas may have diagnostic and/or prognostic implications, proteomics has been widely applied in various areas of science, ranging from the deciphering of molecular pathogen nests of discuses. method: we extracted protein...

to investigate the effects of the two-pore-domain potassium (k2p) channel task-3 in a syngeneic murine model for malignant glioma. malignant or high-grade glioma (who grade iii and iv) are the most common and most aggressive primary brain tumors in adults. despite aggressive multimodal therapy, the outcome of patients with malignant glioma remains poor. however, recent phase i and ii trials hav...
