CGRP Enhances the Regeneration of Bone Defects by Regulating Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Through Promoting ANGPTL4 Secretion by Bone Blood Vessels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bone angiogenesis is important for bone formation and regeneration after bone injury. Endothelial‐derived angiogenic factors are key signal transducers in the bone microenvironment and maintain vascular–osteogenic coupling during bone regeneration.

Automated Segmentation of Thyroid Nodule, Gland, and Cystic Components From Ultrasound Images Using Deep Learning

IEEE Access, 2020
Sonographic features associated with margins, shape, size, and volume of thyroid nodules are used to assess their risk of malignancy. Automatically segmenting nodules from normal thyroid gland would enable an automated estimation of these features.

Risk of Malignancy in Thyroid Nodules 4 cm or Larger [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2017
BackgroundSeveral authors have questioned the accuracy of fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in large nodules. Some surgeons recommend thyroidectomy for nodules ≥4 cm even in the setting of benign FNAC, due to increased risk of malignancy and ...

The OtR tumor recurrence and metastasis model reveals doxorubicin‐induced tumor shrinkage doesn't guarantee prolonged survival

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Tumor growth inhibition does not predict survival benefit in a clinically relevant metastasis model. Tumor local growth and systemic metastasis represent distinct biological processes. In the 4T1‐OtR model, although chemotherapy significantly suppresses primary tumor growth, it fails to prevent distant metastasis or extend overall survival.
