Plain-language summary
Studying QoL in patients DLGG receiving TMZ is complex because of the multiples interactions between tumor characteristics, neurocognitive functioning, treatments, environment and psychopathological context in which these patients experience symptoms. It is, however, important to accurately evaluate these aspects in consideration of the young age, generally preserved QoL at the time of diagnosis, possible implications of the disease on the professional (DLGG patients are often still active), social and familial domain, and relatively long survival of these patients. In the absence of a curative treatment for DLGG, preserving patients' QoL is indeed a major goal.
