Differentiated Thyroid Cancer in Children and Adolescents: 12-year Experience in a Single Center
CONCLUSION: An individualized risk-based approach is recommended. Our study suggests that lymphovascular invasion may be associated with a higher risk of persistence/recurrence and should therefore be considered for decision making in children and adolescents with PTC.PMID:38683018 | DOI:10.4274/jcrpe.galenos.2024.2024-1-25 (Source: JCRPE Journal of Clinical Research in Pediatric Endocrinology)

Nuclear features in thyroid cytology: features helpful for a morphological diagnosis in routine practice
This review article describes nuclear features of a range of thyroid lesions to enable confident diagnosis in a multidisciplinary thyroid cancer setting. It is hoped that this will serve as a handy aide-m émoire when faced with diagnosis of thyroid FNA (fine needle aspiration) cytology in day-to-day practice. The existing literature has been reviewed to give the reader an overview of the classification systems in thyroid cytology and various entities described therein. The lesions are broadly catego rised as benign, malignant, and indeterminate. (Source: Diagnostic Histopathology)

Triiodothyronine Supplementation for Children Undergoing Cardiopulmonary Bypass: A Meta-Analysis
AbstractSpecific pediatric populations have exhibited disparate responses to triiodothyronine (T3) repletion during and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Objective: To determine if T3 supplementation improves outcomes in children undergoing CPB. We searched randomized controlled trials (RCT) evaluating T3 supplementation in children aged 0 –3 years undergoing CPB between 1/1/2000 and 1/31/2022. We calculated Hazard ratios (HR) for time to extubation (TTE), ICU length of stay (LOS), and hospital LOS. 5 RCTs met inclusion criteria with available patient-level data. Two were performed in United States (US) and 3 in Indon...

Biological functions of LncRNA SNHG14 in the development of thyroid cancer cells via targeting miR-206
This study aimed to determine lncRNA SNHG14 and miR-206 in Thyroid Cancer ( TC) and to explore the related mechanisms. Sixty-four samples of thyroid tissue were collected from patients with TC. TC cell lines and a normal human thyroid cell line (HTori-3) were bought. lncRNA SNHG14-siRNA (si-lncRNA SNHG14), lncRNA SNHG14-shRNA (sh-lncRNA SNHG14), blank plasmid (siRNA-NC), miR-206-inhibitor, miR-206-mimics were transfected into BHT101 and Ocut-2C cells. qRT-PCR quantified the expression of lncRNA SNHG14 and miR-206, and the expression of vimentin, Snail, N-cadherin, Slug, E-cadherin and ZO-1 proteins were identified via WB. ...

Naive and regulatory B-cell transcription patterns guide the increased risk of papillary thyroid carcinoma in obesity
Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand). 2024 Apr 28;70(4):118-126. doi: 10.14715/cmb/2024.70.4.19.ABSTRACTA growing number of studies suggest a positive association between obesity and the high incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), suggesting that the abnormal levels of adipokines associated with obesity may be a risk factor for these aggressive thyroid cancers, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms are not yet clear. We downloaded bulk RNA sequence data for subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in obesity and healthy population and tumor tissues of PTC from GEO database. Through analysis of Differential Expression Genes (DE...

Cardiac hypertrophy that affects hyperthyroidism occurs independently of the NLRP3 inflammasome
Pflugers Arch. 2024 Apr 29. doi: 10.1007/s00424-024-02965-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiac hypertrophy (CH) is an adaptive response to maintain cardiac function; however, persistent stress responses lead to contractile dysfunction and heart failure. Although inflammation is involved in these processes, the mechanisms that control cardiac inflammation and hypertrophy still need to be clarified. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a cytosolic multiprotein complex that mediates IL-1β production. The priming step of NLRP3 is essential for increasing the expression of its components and occurs following NF-κB activation. Hypert...
