Sleep duration is an identified risk factor for adverse health outcomes. As the endocrine system closely intertwined with sleep and quality, association between dysfunction has been evaluated. Thyroid function, particularly that related to thyrotropin (TSH), also known be influenced by sleep/awake status circadian rhythm. Additionally, a link autoimmunity, which common cause of thyroid dysfunction, suggested; however, depending on deprivation method used in studies, effects function vary....
Abstract Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent encompassing broad spectrum of pathologic changes in the liver. Metabolic derangements are suggested to be main causes NAFLD. As thyroid hormone regulator energy metabolism, there may link between NAFLD and function. In previous studies, association function was not conclusive. The aim this study clarify relationship function, focusing on subclinical hypothyroidism, using nationwide survey data representing Korean population....
Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and measurement of thyroglobulin (Tg) in washout (FNA-Tg) are recommended for the diagnosis metastatic or recurrent lymph nodes (LNs) differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). However, effect serum Tg antibody (TgAb) on FNA-Tg levels still remains unclear preoperative setting. We analyze interference TgAb as proof concept diagnostic advantage combined with FNA-Tg.A total 370 suspicious cervical LNs from 273 patients DTC were included. The primary tumor was...

Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) and washout thyroglobulin (Tg) measurements are the standard for evaluating a metastatic lymph node (LN) in thyroid cancer. However, patients rarely benefit from these procedures due to false results. This study aims identify reliable biomarker that significantly improves diagnosis of LNs, addition FNAC Tg. analyzed 130 LNs were suspected have metastases on ultrasonography, June 2016 December 2017. All subjects underwent FNAC, Tg new biomarker,...
Thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI) bioassay has a better ability to predict the relapse rate of Graves' disease (GD) than thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)-binding inhibitory method in terms measuring TSH receptor antibody. However, optimal TSI cutoff for predicting after antithyroid drug (ATD) withdrawal is not well evaluated.This retrospective study enrolled GD patients who had been treated with ATD and obtained their <140% from January 2010 December 2019 referral hospital.Among 219...
Background: We aimed to evaluate the association between thyroid hormone (free thyroxine, free T4) level and lipid profiles in nationally representative data. Methods: This study was based on cross-sectional survey data from sixth Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey IV. After exclusion of subjects with a history disease or abnormal function test those medication for dyslipidemia and/or cardiovascular disease, total 3548 were included study.

Abstract We sought to evaluate the performance of machine learning prediction models for identifying vision-threatening diabetic retinopathy (VTDR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus using only medical data from warehouse. This is a multicenter electronic records review study. Patients screened and followed-up 10 years were included six referral hospitals sharing same record system (n = 9,102). Patient demographics, laboratory results, visual acuities (VAs), occurrence VTDR collected....
Thyroid cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers. About 3-8% people in United States have thyroid nodules, and 5-15% these nodules are malignant. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) a standard procedure to diagnose malignity nodules. However, about 10-20% FNABs produce indeterminable results, which leads repeat biopsies unnecessary surgical operations. We explored photoacoustic (PA) imaging as new method identify cancerous In pilot study test its feasibility, we recruited patients with...
Background In general, obesity is a major contributor to metabolic syndrome (MetS) and associated with insulin resistance (IR). Metabolically obese but normal weight (MONW) individuals present abnormalities features of MetS despite having range body mass index (BMI). recent years, different subtypes have been introduced, including metabolically healthy (MHO) (MOO). Also, it has reported that vitamin D parathyroid hormone (PTH) are possibly linked MetS. Methods findings this study, we aimed...
To determine whether baseline thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI) bioassay or its early response upon treatment with an anti-thyroid drug (ATD) can predict prognosis of Graves' disease (GD) in real-world practice.This retrospective study enrolled GD patients who had previous ATD TSI checked at and follow-up from April 2010 to November 2019 one referral hospital. The population were divided into two groups: experienced relapse continued (relapse/persistence), no after discontinuation...
Purpose: Our aim was to evaluate the effect of prophylactic pilocarpine on acute salivary symptoms after radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.Methods: We enrolled 88 (76 women and 12 men; mean age: 47 years; range: 20-74 years) cancer who received RAI.Patients were divided into (51 patients) control (37 groups.Pilocarpine given orally, at a dose 5 mg three times day, from 2 days before RAI therapy.Symptoms signs sialadenitis within 3 months...
Abstract Context Thyroid hormones are essential for energy metabolism related to thermogenesis and oxygen consumption. Objective This study evaluated the potential association of thyroid function including peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb) with physical activity in nationally representative data. Design/Setting/Participants retrospective cohort used data from Korean National Health Nutrition Examination Survey between 2013 2015.
