  1. IDH + CIC/FUBP1/LOH 1p19q refers to mutations in IDH plus any of the subsequent genes, similar for IDH + ATRX/TP5 3. Statistical tests were performed using a Chi-square test. OS refers to median overall survival in years. Frequency comparisons were done between grade II, III and IV. Exceptions were made for genes with too few/no data in one of the grades (e.g. there are no grade IV tumors with 1p19q codeletion). Therefore, the P value for NF1 is based on comparison between grade III and IV and the P value for IDH + CIC/FUBP1/LOH 1p19q is based on a comparison between grade II and III
