Obesity and meningioma: a US population-based study paired with analysis of a multi-institutional cohort January 19, 2024
CONCLUSIONS: Male and female patients undergoing meningioma resection are more likely to be obese than patients undergoing craniotomy for other intracranial tumors. Obese males are more likely to have meningiomas in the skull base compared with other locations, but this association was not found in females. There was no significant difference in PFS among obese […]

Mendelian randomization provides support for obesity as a risk factor for meningioma January 24, 2019
Little is known about the causes of meningioma. Obesity and obesity-related traits have been reported in several epidemiological observational studies to be risk factors for meningioma. We performed an analysis of genetic variants associated with obesity-related traits to assess the relationship with meningioma risk using Mendelian randomization (MR), an approach unaffected by biases from temporal […]

Overweight, obesity and height as risk factors for meningioma, glioma, pituitary adenoma and nerve sheath tumor: a large population-based prospective cohort study May 27, 2017
CONCLUSIONS: This study does not confirm overweight or obesity as risk factors for meningioma. Additionally, overweight and obesity can be quite confidently excluded as risk factors for glioma. However, this study indicates that body fatness increases the risk for PA, while it reduces the risk for NST.

Overweight, obesity and meningioma risk: a meta-analysis March 4, 2014
CONCLUSION: The results of this meta-analysis suggest that obesity but not overweight is associated with an increased risk of meningioma. Due to the limited number of studies, further research is needed to confirm the association.

Hunting for the causes of meningioma--obesity is a suspect September 7, 2011
In this issue of the journal, Michaud and colleagues report a 48% increased risk of meningioma in obese individuals compared with individuals with a normal body mass index (BMI). This large prospective cohort study adds weight to the suggested link between BMI and meningioma, thus contributing to the growing number of cancer sites likely associated […]
