Filter by:In the present study, the severity of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (RLNI) and hypocalcemia (H) will be followed-up and the probable interrelation between them will be proposed considering the clinical situation of patients, e.g. improvement in hypocalcemia also make a positive effect on voice? (any objective sign? Ca? PTH?), return of voice is parallel with the improvement in hypocalcemia? Postoperative calcium (Ca), parathyroid hormone (PTH), regular vocal cord evaluations by ear-nose-throat (ENT) exams, deterioration-stability-improvement of clinical symptoms regarding both Ca metabolism and vocal cord function will be noted at regular intervals (postoperative day 1-3-first, weekly control/first month, monthly/first 6-month, 3-monthly/6-12 months) at outpatient controls. Serum Ca, PTH, ENT evaluation of vocal cords-noted.
In the outpatient clinic based population setting, the investigators want to reappraise the accuracy of the new model of multi-factorial ultrasound diagnosis with the conventional fine-needle aspiration cytology.
It has been shown that gut microbiome and microbiome metabolism can regulate or control the initiation of a cancer process. To the best of the investigators knowledge, no study has directly shown the relationship of the thyroid microcarcinoma to the human microbiome. In this work, the aim is to detect the microbiome in peripheral blood in a patient with a thyroid gland carcinoma, and to correlate it with the disease, compared to the microbiome of a group of patients who did not find another thyroid gland carcinoma
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of using Tamsulosin for treatment of eyelid retraction as part of thyroid eye disease. The treatment will be offered to all thyroid patients suffering from eyelid retraction who are treated at the thyroid clinic in Sheba's Ophthalmology department. All patient will receive information about the drug Tamsulosin, the possible side effects, and the alternative treatment options for retraction. Patients recruited will take 0.4mg/day Tamsulosin for 3 months and will have follow-ups at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months to evaluate the retraction status.
Primary objective: The 3-years disease-free survival was compared between low-dose group (30 mCi) and high-dose group (100 mCi). Secondary objective: The successful remnant ablation, efficacy, 3-year progression-free survival and safety were compared between low-dose group (30 mCi) and high-dose group (100 mCi). Research Hypothesis：The 3-year disease-free survival of low-dose group (30mci) may not be lower than that of high-dose group (100 mci) in intermediate-risk thyroid papillary carcinoma patients with no structural or functional lesions and stimulated thyroglobulin(ps-Tg)1-20ng/ml. Study design：Single-center, randomized, double-blinded Sample size：254 patients Follow-up：The measurement of serum thyroid function, thyroglobulin/ anti-thyroglobulin antibody(Tg/TgAb) and neck ultrasonography were performed every 3-12 months during the 3 years according to patients' condition, and computerized tomography(CT) scan, positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT) and diagnostic whole-body 131I scan were added if necessary. Intervention：Randomly allocated into two groups to receive either 30 mCi (low-dose group) or 100 mCi (high-dose group ) radioiodine for post-thyroidectomy ablation therapy. Evaluation index：Primary evaluation index: The 3-year disease-free survival. Secondary evaluation index: Successful remnant ablation, efficacy, the 3-year progression-free survival and safety.
The aim of this study is to assess the impact of endocrine changes and their correction on survival and organ function in heart and lung transplant recipients. This study also features an investigation of the hormone levels and hormonal replacement therapy of the donors to study its role in the function of the transplanted hearts and lungs. Thyroid hormones (TSH, thyroxine, tri-iodothyronine), cortisol and the antidiuretic hormone will be studied. The former two hormone levels will be defined in the recipients just before transplantation and three days later. In the case of the donors all three hormones will be recorded at the time of the explantation. The investigators would like to record the hormonal replacement therapy in all our patients as well to see it's effect on survival and on the transplanted organ function. After the transplantation during the hospital stays all the important hemodynamic parameters, laboratory parameters, the result of the medical imagings, the medication, the length of ICU and hospital stay and the complications were recorded. Recipients will be followed for five years. Organ function will be assessed every three month for a year, after than every six month for further four years. Investigator would like to record the result of the cardiac echocardiography, spirometries, imaging, and complications. Our purpose is to compare these results against the endocrine disorders and the replacement therapy.
Hormonal imbalances are likely to affect the corneal metabolism and may be also associated with Keratoconus. Among the various endocrinologic dysfunctions assumed so far, thyroid gland dysfunction (TGD) (hypo- or hyperthyroidism; comprised as TGD) is frequently associated with eye diseases such as Graves disease
The radio-guided technique offers both help with in-vivo identification and ex-vivo confirmation of parathyroid adenoma. In-vivo accuracy is most important but its results are not satisfactory. The aim of this study was to evaluate if there is a beneficial effect of individualized timing of surgery using preoperative multi-phase 99mTc-MIBI single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT on in-vivo characteristics of minimally invasive radio-guided parathyroidectomy.
study assigned into three groups, Group I was the control group operated by total thyroidectomy and retrospectively followed, where the other two groups Operated by Total thyroidectomy and central neck dissection. Recurrence Free Survival (RFS) was the main issue of the study and calculated as the time from date of surgery to date of relapse or the most recent follow-up contact that patient was known as relapse-free, Study exclusively studied the outcome and advantage of central neck dissection
This study is to evaluate Thyroid Hormone profile in patients with Nephrotic syndrome to identify clinical predictor of Thyroid dysfunction in patients with Nephrotic syndrome
