Electronic Health Records (EHR) of patients affected by GBM at the University Medical Centre of Utrecht (UMCU) between 2005-2013.
This dataset contains clinical information from 647 patients collected to study prognostic factor
influencing overall survival in GBM patients, this study focuses on the involvement of the
subventricular zone (SVZ), a brain region that may play a role in tumor progression.
The dataset found out that SVZ contact meant worse prognosis for patients,
in fact SVZ-contacting tumors had worse median OS compared to non SVZ-contacting patients.
Some data may be missing due to the nature of clinical records.
data(utrecht2019dataset)A data frame with 647 rows and 7 variables:
Numeric. Patient's age.
Factor. "<70" (0) or ">70" (1) KPS level.
Numeric. Overall Survival expressed in months.
Factor. "None" (0), "Monotherapy" (1) or "RT+TMZ" (2) for therapy regime.
Factor. "Biopsy" (0) or "Resection" (1) for surgery type.
Factor. "Dead" (0) or "Alive" (1) at their most recent check-up.
Factor. "No" (0) or "Yes" (1) for SVZ contact.
