Age-related aspects of glioma: current understanding. Literature review by Serhii P. Luhovskyi, Tetiana Y. Kvitnytska-Ryzhova

“…While pediatric-type and adult-type high-grade gliomas (pHGG and aHGG) share histological features, they differ in location, biological behavior, molecular-genetic profiles, and prognosis. A major distinction between aHGG and pHGG lies in mutations such as IDH 1/2, EGFR gene expression, TERT mutations, chromosome alterations (+7/-10), and TP53 mutations, all contributing to a poorer prognosis in HGG gliomas. …”

Social Aspects of Democratic Safeguards in Privacy Rights: A Qualitative Study of the European Union and China by Polonca Kovač, Grega Rudolf
