  1. Fisher’s exact test was used for categorical data. For continuous data, the Mann-Whitney U test was employed, with results expressed as median (min-max) values. Statistical significance levels were set at *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01.
  2. aAll patients received standard treatment, including TMZ and CCRT therapy. BEV was introduced only in cases of disease progression. DM Diabetes Mellitus, HTN Hypertension.
