A Mathematical Model of Thyroid Disease Response to Radiotherapy [PDF]
We present a mechanistic biomathematical model of molecular radiotherapy of thyroid disease. The general model consists of a set of differential equations describing the dynamics of different populations of thyroid cells with varying degrees of damage caused by radiotherapy (undamaged cells, sub-lethally damaged cells, doomed cells, and dead cells), as

Intermediate-risk thyroid carcinoma: indicators of a poor prognosis
Objective: The intermediate-risk (IR) category includes tumors with different degrees of aggression. We aimed to identify the risk factors associated with unfavorable response to initial treatment and compare the effect of low/high radioactive iodine ...

Objective: Thyrotropin-stimulated thyroglobulin (STg) after total thyroidectomy is a prognosis marker for differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). As Tg level is influenced by thyrotropin (TSH), perhaps the STg/TSH ratio is also a prognosis marker for ...

Central Compartment Lymph Nodes Have Distinct Metastatic Patterns in Different Age Groups
Background and PurposeCentral compartment lymph node metastasis (CLNM) is a manifestation of tumor aggressiveness and an indicator of tumor prognosis. The purpose of this study was to construct a nomogram for evaluating CLNM patterns in papillary thyroid

Thyroglobulin and thyroglobulin antibody: an updated clinical and laboratory expert consensus
AbstractObjectiveThyroglobulin measurement is the cornerstone of modern management of differentiated thyroid cancer, with clinical decisions on treatment and follow-up based on the results of such measurements. However, numerous factors need to be considered regarding measurement with and interpretation of thyroglobulin assay results.DesignThe present ...

Effect of Thyroglobulin Autoantibodies on the Metabolic Clearance of Serum Thyroglobulin [PDF]
In order to establish whether thyroglobulin autoantibodies (TgAb) influence the metabolic clearance of thyroglobulin (Tg) in humans, serum Tg and TgAb were correlated shortly after radioiodine (131I) treatment.Samples were collected from 30 consecutive patients undergoing 131I activity for Graves' hyperthyroidism at the time of treatment and every 15 ...

Phylogenetic analysis of the human thyroglobulin regions
Thyroglobulin is a large protein present in all vertebrates. It is synthesized in the thyrocytes and exported to lumen of the thyroid follicle, where its tyrosine residues are iodinated .
