Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.An Australian first, this study examined normal reference ranges for 99mTc‐pertechnetate thyroid uptake. Through a retrospective and prospective analysis, this study found a new reference range of 0.4%–2.4%. The findings suggest that locally derived reference values may differ from historical data and highlight the importance of region‐specific ...

Risk Analysis Index Versus mFI‐5 for Predicting Outcomes After Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This retrospective database study of 2129 adults undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty compared the risk analysis index (RAI) with the modified 5‐item frailty index (mFI‐5) for predicting 30‐day postoperative outcomes and found that frailty was associated with worse morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, non‐home discharge, and mortality.

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...
