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–

Strain and Shear Wave Elastography in Thyroid Nodules: Tissue Stiffness as a Complementary Risk Marker for Differentiating Benign, Indeterminate, and Malignant Cytology

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and strain elastography (SE) as complementary techniques to conventional B‐mode ultrasound for differentiating benign, indeterminate, and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional study included 208 thyroid nodules evaluated using B‐mode

Real‐World Experience With Multimodal Treatment of Resectable Stage II–III Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Single Institutional Analysis

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neoadjuvant therapy has recently become an integral component of multimodal treatment for resectable lung cancer. However, real‐world data on perioperative morbidity and treatment adherence remain limited. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of different neoadjuvant treatment approaches applied within daily clinical routine ...

Assessment of Thyroid Uptake Ratio Values in a Normal Population. Establishment of Normal Reference Values for 99mTc‐Pertechnetate Thyroid Uptake in an Australian Population

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 ...

Delayed gastric emptying time in adult cerebral falciparum malaria [PDF]

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases, 2012
Objective: We hypothesize that upper gastrointestinal symptoms in cerebral malaria are due to gastric motordysfunction. But gastric motility studies in cerebral malaria are scarce.Methods: We determined gastric emptying half-time (GET½) of liquid meals ...
