In childhood the traditional diagnostic approach to thyroid nodules consists of clinical, laboratory, and imaging evaluations. A safe accurate procedure is needed promptly identify patients who require surgery. regard usefulness fine needle aspiration biopsy, data in literature concerning children adolescents are scanty. The aim this study was evaluate compare accuracies collected retrospectively a group pediatric with submitted biopsy. Forty-two underwent surgery for nodules, recruited 9...
Weight loss is a well-recognized prognostic parameter for survival of lung cancer patients. Computerized-tomography (CT)-based analysis body composition and blood-based metabolic evaluation are promising tools. We aimed to assess the correlation between albumin, mass index (BMI), skeletal muscle (SMI), fat-free (FFMI), fat (FMI) weight change, as well their with patients on nivolumab treatment.Data were retrospectively collected. was measured at diagnosis stage 4 disease before start...
Abstract Study goals Many studies demonstrate that a significant amount of requested and performed imaging tests does not provide clinical information could modify either patient management or disease natural history, in particular, when findings are omitted an attempt to replace accurate analysis address diagnostic methods, examination for providers, thus lengthening the waiting time perform impact on more serious disorders. The aim this study is determine prevalence inappropriate among MR...
The risk of conduction system abnormalities (CSA) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation remains high. We aimed to evaluate the impact mitral annular calcium (MAC) score on development CSA implantation.Consecutive patients (n=168), with severe AoV stenosis, without prior CSA, underwent computed tomography followed by device implantation; CoreValve (n=72) and SAPIEN (n=96). MAC, AoV, left ventricular outflow tract (Ca++) scores were quantitated from noncontrast ECG-gated using Agatston...

Native T1 mapping values are elevated in acutely injured myocardium. We sought to study whether native values, the non-infarct related myocardial territories, might differ when supplied by obstructive or nonobstructive coronary arteries.Consecutive patients (N = 60, mean age 59 years) with first STEMI following primary percutaneous intervention, underwent cardiac magnetic resonance within 5 ± 2 days. A retrospective review of angiography reports classified arteries as infarct-related artery...
We describe a female affected by diaphragmatic hernia and nasopharyngeal teratoma. The case is compared with one already reported possible diagnoses discussed. These cases appear to represent new syndrome.
