Cognitive functions and quality of life in patients with low‐grade gliomas: The impact of radiotherapy
Abstract
The role of early radiotherapy in the treatment of low‐grade gliomas is controversial. For this reason the impact of radiotherapy on quality of life was studied in long‐term survivors of biopsy‐proved low‐grade gliomas without signs of tumor recurrence. Twenty patients (age range, 18–66 years) had been treated with early radiotherapy; the other 21 patients (age range, 19–65 years) had undergone surgery or biopsy only. The interval from diagnosis to testing ranged from 1 to 12 years (mean, 3.5 years). Nineteen patients with low‐grade hematological malignancies, surviving 1 to 15 years without central nervous system involvement, served as control subjects. Apart from the neurological and functional status, the patients' cognitive, affective, and psychological status was determined. None of the survivors had significant neurological impairment and the Karnofsky index for them was at least 70. However, more specific examinations of cognitive functions and the affective status (Profile of Mood States) indicated that, compared to the control subjects, the patients with low‐grade gliomas had significantly more cognitive disturbances and suffered more frequently from fatigue and depressed moods. The two groups with low‐grade gliomas, on the other hand, did not differ significantly on any of these measures. It is concluded that radiotherapy did not cause these disturbances and had no negative impact on quality of life in these patients.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
