      Ferreyra Vega, Sandra; Olsson Bontell, Thomas; Corell, Alba; Smits, Anja; Jakola, Asgeir Store; Carén, Helena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background - DNA methylation profiling has facilitated and improved the classification of a wide variety of tumors of the central nervous system. In this study, we investigated the potential utility of DNA methylation ...
    • Is intracranial volume a risk factor for IDH-mutant low-grade glioma? A case-control study 

      Sagberg, Lisa Millgård; Fyllingen, Even Hovig; Hansen, Tor Ivar; Strand, Per Sveino; Håvik, Aril Løge; Sundstrøm, Terje; Corell, Alba; Jakola, Asgeir Store; Salvesen, Øyvind; Solheim, Ole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Purpose Risk of cancer has been associated with body or organ size in several studies. We sought to investigate the relationship between intracranial volume (ICV) (as a proxy for lifetime maximum brain size) and risk of ...
    • Lower-Grade Gliomas: An Epidemiological Voxel-Based Analysis of Location and Proximity to Eloquent Regions 

      Gómez Vecchio, Tomás; Neimantaite, Alice; Corell, Alba; Bartek, Jiri; Jensdottir, Margret; Reinertsen, Ingerid; Solheim, Ole; Jakola, Asgeir S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background: Glioma is the most common intra-axial tumor, and its location relative to critical areas of the brain is important for treatment decision-making. Studies often report tumor location based on anatomical taxonomy ...
    • Neurosurgical treatment and outcome patterns of meningioma in Sweden: a nationwide registry-based study 

      Corell, Alba; Thurin, Erik; Skoglund, Thomas; Farahmand, Dan; Henriksson, Roger; Rydenhag, Bertil; Gulati, Sasha; Bártek, Jiří; Jakola, Asgeir Store (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Background Surgery is the main treatment modality for intracranial meningiomas, but data on short-term surgical outcome are limited. The aim of this Swedish nationwide registry-based study was to benchmark the 30-day ...
    • Return to work following meningioma surgery: a Swedish nationwide registry-based matched cohort study 

      Thurin, Erik; Corell, Alba; Gulati, Sasha; Smits, Anja; Henriksson, Roger; Bartek, Jiri Jr.; Salvesen, Øyvind; Jakola, Asgeir Store (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background Meningioma is the most common primary intracranial tumor. It is usually slow growing and benign, and surgery is the main treatment modality. There are limited data on return to work following meningioma ...
    • Spinal cord compression in relation to clinical symptoms in patients with spinal meningiomas 

      Corell, Alba; Cerbach, Charlotte; Hoefling, Nickoleta; Björkman-Burtscher, Isabella M.; Jakola, Asgeir Store (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Objective: Spinal meningiomas are common primary tumors of the spinal canal and the resulting spinal cord compression (SCC) is intrinsically related to symptoms and outcome, but literature concerning this association is ...
    • Stemness and clinical features in relation to the subventricular zone in diffuse lower-grade glioma: An exploratory study 

      Corell, Alba; Gómez Vecchio, Tomás; Ferreyra Vega, Sandra; Dénes, Anna; Neimantaite, Alice; Hagerius, Alexander; Barchéus, Hanna; Solheim, Ole; Lindskog, Cecilia; Bontell, Thomas Olsson; Carén, Helena; Jakola, Asgeir Store; Smits, Anja (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background The subventricular zone (SVZ) of the human brain is a site of adult stem cell proliferation and a microenvironment for neural stem cells (NSCs). It has been suggested that NSCs in the SVZ are potential cells ...
    • Variations in the management of diffuse low-grade gliomas - A Scandinavian multicenter study
