Filter by:Percutaneous microwave ablation(MWA) was reported as an effective modality for the management of thyroid nodules(TNs). This study aims to validate MWA as a feasible approach for patients with TNs for whom surgery is contraindicated or refused. Two groups of subjects with TNs(one group to treat with MWA and the other group to receive regular ultrasonic follow-up without any treatment) will be evaluated in term of TN volume, ultrasonic image and clinical symptoms.
A descriptive analysis involving 300 healthy pregnant women to the establish of trimester-specific reference ranges for thyroid tests in pregnant women. 700 cases were selected as the normal pregnant population to establish a self-sequential longitudinal reference range.
Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma are small thyroid cancer measuring 1cm or less. Most of this tumor are not palpable and are identified either through pathologic examination or from imaging modalities, such as CT scan or thyroid sono. Active surveillance of papillary microcarcinoma is to observe thyroid papillary cancer without immediate surgical approach. The purpose of this study is to understand more about the characteristics of papillary microcarcinoma, which has been known for "the cancer slowly progression"
This study aims to evaluate the effects of thyroid functions on energy homeostasis and inflammation.

Thyroid carcinoma is the common endocrine system malignant neoplasm. At present it has become the malignant neoplasm of fastest growing incidence rate. More than 85% thyroid carcinoma is papillary thyroid carcinoma. Cervical lymph node metastasis is common in papillary thyroid carcinoma patients. This study aim to reveal protein expression differences between papillary thyroid carcinoma with cervical lymph node metastasis and without cervical lymph node metastasis.
The aim of this project is to identify genetic risk factors associated with familial papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Papillary thyroid cancer is a type of cancer that shows high heritability. However, the specific genetic factors that cause an increased risk have been elusive.
Thyroid cancers can occur sporadically, but can also be found as tumors that cluster in families with other cancers or genetic syndromes. Researchers are studying thyroid cancer in children and families, with a particular interest in understanding genes and other factors that may put individuals at risk for developing thyroid cancer and thyroid nodules. - In this study, family and medical history information is collected alongside a blood or saliva sample for genetic studies. - Individuals with a past or present childhood thyroid cancer/nodule or a thyroid cancer suspected to be inherited in their family are invited to participate.
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of adjuvant radioactive iodine therapy on the quality of life(QOL) in differentiated thyroid cancer patients and to identify independent factors affecting changes in the QOL.
- To find out the gap between real-world clinical practice and guideline recommendations in initial management of DTC patients - To observe the characteristics of patients who achieved and did not achieve TSH target value after one year follow-up - To assess response to initial therapy in patients who undergo total or near-total thyroidectomy and RAI remnant ablation after one year follow-up (according to an modified dynamic risk stratification system) - To observe the recurrence status after one year follow-up
