Inflammatory markers such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) have been recently introduced potential biomarkers for tumor pathogenesis, development prognosis in solid tumors. Our aim was to assess the correlation of clinicopathological features NLR PLR patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).A total 201 were divided into groups a cut-off preoperative median value 1,92 123.9, respectively. The including age, size, extra-thyroidal extension,...

Diffuse hepatic uptake of I-131 either on diagnostic or post-therapeutic scans is a usual finding in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma. The aim this study was to evaluate the frequency and clinical significance diffuse radioiodine (PT) postablative (PA) whole-body scans.A total 720 PA 172 PT 732 carcinoma were retrospectively reviewed. Residual tissue liver classified from 0 4. correlation between remnant score, dose radioiodine, serum thyroglobuline (Tg), function test levels...

In this report, a case of differentiated thyroid carcinoma having false-positive I-131 accumulation due to large hydatid cyst in the liver is presented. Abdominal sonographic examination 37-year-old patient with demonstrated an ovoid, complex cystic mass containing parts as well solid-appearing components right lobe liver, which concordant type CE-3 cyst. The postablative whole-body scan obtained 10 days after 100 mCi therapy displayed intense and homogeneous uptake radioiodine liver....

Patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) have long-life expectancy and are at risk for developing a second primary cancer. Aim of this study was to assess the occurrence DTC in conjunction other neoplasms. It also aimed explore possibility synchronous or metachronous malignancies having an impact on clinical course carcinoma.Clinical records 1680 patients treated followed our institution over last twenty years were reviewed. Forty-five tumors found 42 patients. These classified...

Abstract Background Extracellular matrix receptors of the integrin family are known to regulate cell adhesion, shape and functions. The α8 chain is expressed in glomerular mesangial cells vascular smooth muscle cells. Mice deficient for have structural alterations glomeruli but not renal arteries. For this reason we hypothesized that differ their respective capacity compensate lack integrin. Results Wild type integrin-deficient varied markedly morphology expression or localization...

The incidence of papillary microcarcinomas, which are defined as thyroid cancers <10mm in size, has been increasing the last decade. Herein, we present internet-based questionnaire results performed by Turkish Association Endocrine Surgery with aim to evaluate perspective management microcarcinomas Turkey.The user-friendly consisted 13 questions total. These mainly addressed surgical nodules and cancer <1 cm size. Patient before, during, after intervention was also included; additionally,...

Imaging characteristics obtained from serial scintigraphic and ultrasonographic studies in children with the prenatal diagnosis of unilateral pelvic dilatation are presented.Serial findings 101 collected during followup were reviewed. Changes hydronephrotic kidney terms renal pelvis diameter, size, differential function drainage noted. A total 42 underwent surgery at a mean age 15.6 months (range 3.1 to 69.2, median 8.2), while 59 treated nonsurgically.Mean presentation was 5.6 0.8 36.4,...

This study was aimed to determine staining intensity, cellular localization and distribution of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes during sexual cycle in cow oviduct. Oviduct samples belonging 20 cows, 10 which were estrual phase luteal cycle, examined by an immunohistochemical procedure presence NOS enzymes. In epithelial cells isthmus, endothelial (eNOS) expression showed a strong positive reaction weak endothelium smooth muscle blood vessels found serosa lamina propria. eNOS not...

SUMMARY The aim of this study was to evaluate the value three-phase dynamic bone scintigraphy (TPBS) in assessment response sarcomas pre-operative chemotherapy and correlate serial scintigraphic changes with histological findings. group comprised 27 patients (osteogenic sarcoma, n = 20; Ewing's 5; malignant fibrous histiocytoma, 2) a mean age 19.2 years. All received 99Tcm-methylene diphosphonate TPBS before after chemotherapy. Each phase imaging procedure interpreted qualitatively...

Thallium-201 (201Tl) imaging has been widely used to differentiate post-therapy reactions from residual viable tumour or local recurrence. However, the ability of 201Tl discriminate between and changes with superimposed infection/inflammation is unclear. This experimental study investigated localization in infected/inflamed tissues. Twenty-four rats infected Staphylococcus aureus 10 injected a standard volume saline solution (SS) into thigh muscles were studied. ours after microorganism SS...
