Risk Stratification of Thyroid Nodules 10 mm in Diameter or Less: Strength and Pitfalls of the Ultrasonographic Assessment From a Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]

Int J Endocrinol
Background: The selection of thyroid nodules ≤ 10 mm requiring characterization and treatment should be improved, as extensive detection, cytological assessment, and surgery of small and well‐differentiated thyroid carcinoma are not cost‐effective. Aim: To assess the accuracy of algorithms and ultrasonographic characteristics in selecting actual high ...

Comparison between clinical evaluations and laboratory findings and the impact of biofilm on antimicrobial susceptibility in vitro in canine otitis externa

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 586-596, December 2023., 2023
Background – In clinical practice, the diagnosis of otitis externa (OE) normally is based on otoscopic examination and cytological findings, followed by empirical treatment with topic drugs. Biofilm‐producing bacteria are frequently present in OE, even if its presence is often underdiagnosed. Hypothesis/Objectives – The primary aim of this study was to

Machine Learning Improves Risk Stratification in Myelodysplastic Neoplasms: An Analysis of the Spanish Group of Myelodysplastic Syndromes

HemaSphere, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematological stem cell disorders characterized by dysplasia, cytopenias, and increased risk of acute leukemia. As prognosis differs widely between patients, and treatment options vary from observation to allogeneic stem cell transplantation, accurate and precise disease risk prognostication ...

C‐cell differentiation in the wall of an aberrant ultimobranchial sinus in the thyroid gland of an old rat

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 876-883, March 2023., 2023
Drawing of an ultimobranchial sinus, a spontaneous congenital defect detected in an old rat. Abstract Background In mammals, the thyroid gland possesses two types of endocrine cells, follicular cells and C cells, which have different functions but share a similar endodermal origin (although from different regions of the primitive pharynx). Specifically,

Brachycephaly in French bulldogs and pugs is associated with narrow ear canals

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 214-e60, June 2022., 2022
Background Brachycephalic dog breeds have multiple skull malformations which may lead to anatomical changes in the external auditory canal. It is our frequent observation that in the otoscopic examination of the external ear in these breeds we are unable to visualise the tympanic membrane as a consequence of extreme narrowing of the proximal ear canal.
