Hurthle cell carcinoma makes up 3 to 5% of all thyroid cancers and is considered be a true rarity. The aim our study was analyze clinical characteristics survival rates patients with carcinoma.Clinical data regarding basic demographic characteristics, tumor grade, type surgical treatment vital status were collected. Methods descriptive statistics Kaplan-Meier curves used for statistical analysis. Cox proportional hazards regression identify independent predictors.During the period from 1995...
A cross-sectional study was conducted in consecutive newly diagnosed patients with inflammatory bowel disease a tertiary care referral center. The initial evaluation included patient-reported outcome for stool frequency subscore and rectal bleeding. Endoscopic activity determined using the Mayo scoring system ulcerative colitis Simple Score Crohn's disease. Histopathological assessed validated numeric system.We 159 (63 colonic involvement 96 colitis). We found significant correlation between...
Liver cirrhosis is the final stage of chronic liver disease. We aimed to evaluate non-invasive scores as predictors complications and outcome in cirrhotic patients. A total 150 patients were included. Models for end-stage disease (MELD), albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-lymphocyte (MoLR), neutrophil-lymphocyte-albumin (NLA) tested relation development mortality using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The ROC curve analysis showed (area...
The progression of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease to steatohepatitis (NASH) is multifactorial, and there still a lack approved medications for its treatment. study aimed evaluate impact combined treatment with Pentoxifylline Metformin on biochemical parameters in patients Nash. Setting: Outpatient hepatology clinic.A prospective trial was conducted. first cohort included biopsy-proven Nash, while second consisted biopsy-confirmed NAFLD. Blood tests were checked at baseline every three...
Background and Aim. Differentiating iron deficiency anemia (IDA) from of chronic disease (ACD) in patients with inflammatory bowel (IBD) represents a clinical challenge. Hepcidin is polypeptide synthetized the liver, levels or inflammation mostly regulate hepcidin production. Our aim was to determine serum as well investigate whether correlate activity. Material Methods. A case-control study preformed among newly diagnosed IBD same number age- sex-matched healthy controls. All underwent...
Summary The aim of this study was to investigate the influence IL-6, TNF-α and hs-CRP on insulin sensitivity during postoperative follow-up in patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) or open hernia repair (OHR). 65 were studied: after (LC; n=40) (OHR; n=25). Glucose, insulin, hs-CRP, IL-6 TNF-a determined at day 0 (before operation) days 1, 3 7 (after operation). There no difference between LC OHR groups concerning age, BMI, glucose, 0. increased vs. (p<0.0005), without (p=0.561)....
Liver cirrhosis is commonly associated with bacterial infections, which contribute to unfavorable outcome. This study aimed investigate the epidemiology of bacteremia and patterns antibiotic resistance in patients cirrhosis, factors multidrug-resistant infection, predictors mortality.This retrospective single-center included treated between January 2016 December 2018. Data were collected from patients' medical records. The severity liver disease was determined using Child-Pugh, Model for...
Aim. The aim of the study was to evaluate demographic and clinical characteristics patients with primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL), identify risk factors associated PTL determine overall survival. Methods. We performed a retrospective case-control operated for from 1995 2017. There were 41 who formed cases group. control group consisted 82 Hashimoto thyroiditis without concurrent disease. In statistical analysis we used standard descriptive statistics, logistic regression analysis, Kaplan-Meier...
The phylosophy of aggressive surgical approach, its complete implementation in liver trauma surgery did not appear efficient. No matter permanenent development diagnostic imaging methods, anesthesia, intensive therapy, medical technology and suture materials, operational theater operative tchniques, major resections had mortality rate up to 60%. With introduction computerized tomography (CT, 1981) everyday clinical praxis with better evaluation patients, the whole approach patient has been...
Radio-guided surgery offers several advantages in treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism. It is considered less helpful renal hyperparathyroidism, but it could be great advantage the persistent or recurrent secondary One surgical options for symptomatic hyperparathyroidism total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation hyperplastic parathyroid tissue forearm muscles sternocleidomastoid muscle. Recurrence can occur and most likely caused by graft hyperplasia. In this report we present...
The phrenic nerve is a that originates in the neck (C3-C5) and passes down between lung heart to reach diaphragm. It controls diaphragm which primary muscle involved breathing. Injuries of can occur after trauma such as falls, blunt trauma, penetrating injuries or car accidents, iatrogenic injury during surgery chest. Phrenic pacing (PNP), ?diaphragm pacing?, application rhythmic electrical impulses diaphragm, resulting respiration for patients who would be otherwise dependent on mechanical...
Introduction. Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare neoplasm. This disease, of unknown etiology, runs an unpredictable course. Its definitive diagnosis calls for detailed histopathological analysis including immunohistochemistry. Microscopically, IMT composed spindle and inflammatory cells in different proportions. It presents infrequently adults with nonspecific symptomatology. The presence described every anatomical region but the tracheal one especially uncommon. Case report....
Surgical intervention is an extremely high stress for the human body, leading to occurrence of inflammation and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance developing a few hours after start operation, most pronounced right its completion. Hyperglycemia were recognized as possible independent cause complications in major abdominal surgery. Metabolic response surgery or other types trauma accelerating metabolism state hypermetabolism, which implies increase oxidative processes acceleration...
