Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a rare malignancy, with 70% to 80% of cases being sporadic (sMTC). Current guidelines recommend total thyroidectomy (TT) for all preoperatively suspicious sMTC, though there has been increasing support reducing the surgical extent in recent years. However, relevant data are limited. This study aimed comprehensively evaluate safety hemithyroidectomy (HT) sMTC. included 797 patients MTC who received curative-intent initial surgery at 19 participating referral...

Two new triterpenoids, spirochensilides A (1) and B (2) were isolated from Abies chensiensis. Comprehensive spectroscopic analysis revealed that 1 2 are the first example of triterpenoids possessing a unique 8,10-cyclo-9,10-seco methyl-rearranged carbon skeleton. The single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses computational methods allowed absolute configuration assignments two compounds. plausible biogenetic pathway spirochensilide is also proposed.

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) responds poorly to conventional therapies and requires a multidisciplinary approach manage. The aim of the current study is explore whether aggressive treatment beneficial, especially appropriate extent surgery in ATC. Patients diagnosed with ATC from 2004 2014 were identified Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) database included our study. A total 735 patients identified. two-year overall survival (OS) rates for stage IVA, IVB, IVC 36.5%, 15.6%,...
