a trend toward significancep = .05152so close (0.05 < p ≤ 0.1)
The EQ‐5D index score showed a trend toward significance ( p = .05152), with a higher median score in patients without deficits (7 vs. 8), suggesting that those without preoperative deficits perceived their health‐related QoL more favorably.

did not reach statistical significancep = .5612not close (p > 0.1)
For aphasia, the SG median was slightly lower in patients with recurrent tumors at 0.45 (range 0.0–1.0, n = 14) compared to 0.5 (range 0.0–1.0, n = 46) in newly diagnosed patients, but again, this difference did not reach statistical significance ( p = .5612, Table 3 ).
