Medullary thyroid carcinoma with double negative calcitonin and CEA: a case report and update of literature review

BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2019
Background Medullary thyroid carcinoma is a malignant uncommon and aggressive tumour of the parafollicular C cells. In about 75% of cases it is sporadic while, in case of RET mutation, it is associated to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (25% of cases)

Exposure‐adjusted safety and efficacy of GLP‐I and GLP‐1/GIP receptor agonists compared with non‐GLP‐I for weight management and type 2 diabetes: Based on FDA medical and statistical reports of 34 280 safety and 36 312 efficacy subjects

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This work aimed to contextualize glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) and glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonists safety and efficacy regarding weight management (WM); we analysed Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Medical Reviews to analyse 14 medications using patient‐exposure year normalization and ...

Impact of empiric potassium supplementation on mortality, sudden cardiac arrest and stroke in furosemide initiators

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...

RMRP, RMST, FTX and IPW: novel potential long non-coding RNAs in medullary thyroid cancer

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
The relevant role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in cancer is currently a matter of increasing interest. Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a rare neuroendocrine tumor (2–5% of all thyroid cancer) derived from the parafollicular C-cells which secrete ...

Bilateral Symmetry and Variation of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Inferior Thyroid Artery Patterns: An Intraoperative Study of 150 Nerves

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...

Differential expression of aquaporins and its diagnostic utility in thyroid cancer. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Aquaporin3 (AQP3) and Aquaporin4 (AQP4) play a major role in transcellular and transepithelial water movement as water channel membrane proteins. Little is known of their expression and significance in human thyroid tissues. Thus, we examined

Clinical, Radiologic and Cytologic Predictors of Malignancy in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules: Insights From a 26‐Year Cohort Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Thyroid nodules are less common but more often malignant in pediatric patients than in adults. Our objectives were to study the features of benign vs. malignant thyroid nodules in a large pediatric patient cohort. Methods Retrospective observational cohort study. Consecutive patients aged 0.01–17.9 years at evaluation between 1997–

Cancer Risk in Marfan Syndrome: A Swedish Population‐Based Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
The cancer risk in Marfan syndrome, an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder, largely remains to be explored. In this population‐based matched cohort study of 1544 Swedish patients, the overall cancer risk in adults with Marfan syndrome showed no significant increase, except for the risk of endocrine tumours with a nearly threefold increase ...

The 9th Edition of the UICC TNM Classification of Malignant Tumours: Updates and Rationale for Change

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The standard for assessing and recording the extent of the tumour, a necessity for most malignancies, is the Tumour Node Metastases (TNM) classification. The Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM committee has defined this since the early 1950s.
