Description
Maximilian Schwendner and co-authors assess brain network health in right sided glioma patients in a 2025 study. Such tumors disrupt networks and thinking, but right side tumors draw less study than left side ones, which hit language. Patients took a structured thinking test battery before surgery, after it, and at three months, while brain mapping and fiber tracking charted key pathways.
Nearly nine in ten patients showed a deficit in at least one test before surgery. Fine hand skill, visual search speed, and trail making tasks failed most often. Follow up testing tracked which deficits eased or persisted after the tumor came out, tying cognition to the structural maps.
