The larynx of children and adolescents is still in the developmental phase and the anatomical structure is still very small and sensitive. The higher malignancy and faster progression of some paediatric thyroid cancers make surgery more difficult. In...
BACKGROUND: The risk of malignancy in thyroid nodules is higher in children than in adults, often necessitating a more aggressive endocrine and surgical approach. However, given that not all solid thyroid nodules are malignant, a more conservative ap...
Thyroid tissue is sensitive to the effects of endocrine disrupting substances, and this represents a significant health concern. Histopathological analysis of tissue sections of the rat thyroid gland remains the gold standard for the evaluation for a...
Weakly-supervised learning (WSL) methods have gained significant attention in medical image segmentation, but they often face challenges in accurately delineating boundaries due to overfitting to weak annotations such as bounding boxes. This issue is...
INTRODUCTION: Thyroid cytopathology, particularly in cases of atypia of undetermined significance/follicular lesions of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS), suffers from suboptimal sensitivity and specificity challenges. Recent advancements in digit...
Deep learning techniques are increasingly being used to classify medical imaging data with high accuracy. Despite this, due to often limited training data, these models can lack sufficient generalizability to predict unseen test data, produced in dif...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of intravenous lidocaine injection on the half-maximum effective concentration (EC50) of remifentanil in preventing cough due to tracheal extubation in female patients undergoing thyroid surgery by Dixon's sequential...
PURPOSE: Thyroid nodules are common in the general population, and assessing their malignancy risk is the initial step in care. Surgical exploration remains the sole definitive option for indeterminate nodules. Extensive database access is crucial fo...
The growing prevalence of environmental pollutants has raised concerns about their potential role in thyroid dysfunction and related disorders. Previous research suggests that various chemicals, including plasticizers like acetyl tributyl citrate (AT...
