The EMIRATES Study
This pilot study will take place in thyroid outpatient clinics. It will have two study arms running in consecutive order: first, a Control arm where standard care will take place without PDA-TC, then a Patient Decision Aid (PDA) arm where the PDA-TC is implemented into the clinical practice. Within each …
Nomogram for Predicting Difficult Transoral and Submental Thyroidectomy
No prior studies have stratified the difficulty of transoral and submental thyroidectomy (TOaST). The investigators aimed to investigate preoperative factors as indicators of difficult TOaSTs and to develop a predictive model accordingly.
A Prospective, Single-arm, Multi-centre, Blinded, Observational, Diagnostic Accuracy Study With a Diagnostic Medical Product
After thyroid surgery, 0.6 to 4% of patients develop postoperative bleeding. 90% of this postoperative bleeding occurs within the first 48 hours. Most of the time, the complications are rapidly progressing and require immediate attention. Up to 0.6% of patients with postoperative bleeding die. In a clinical study with postoperative …
Intraoperative Monitoring to Predict Postoperative Complications After Thyroidectomy
The goal of this study is to evaluate the role of intraoperative continous and intermittent neuromonitoring and intraoperative parathormone (PTH) to predict postoperative nerve morbidity and hypocalcemia.
Patient Perceptions of Robotic, Endoscopic and Open Thyroid Surgery
Robotic thyroid surgery offers certain improvements in cosmesis and postoperative recovery. The study aimed to describe patients' concerns in choosing surgical approach and how these attitudes affect preferences for robotic thyroidectomy (RT), endoscopic thyroidectomy (ET) and conventional open thyroidectomy (OT), with the long-term goal of promoting RT.
Postoperative Pain of Robotic, Endoscopic and Open Lateral Neck Dissection
Postoperative pain is a good indicator to confirm the advantages of the surgical methods in the era of minimally invasive surgery. Lateral neck dissection requires extensive dissection which may leads to postoperative numbness and pain. Robotic thyroid surgery has the advantage of precise and careful dissection and avoid the L-shape …
A Clinical Study of Hyperthyroidism in Children
This study intends to conduct a retrospective and prospective study on children with hyperthyroidism, and it is a non-intervention study to collect information on diagnosis and treatment and long-term follow-up of children with hyperthyroidism. To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment effect, side effects and remission of hyperthyroidism in children, to …

Impact of Conventional Treatments and Clinical Variables on Thyroid Cancer
DTC has a generally favorable prognosis. The possibility to discriminate between patients with aggressive tumors and those with a more indolent behavior may reduce the need for unnecessary treatments. Aim of this observational study is to evaluate how anamnestic, clinical, and histopathological variables may influence the outcome of the enrolled …
Iodine Nutrition Status and Clinical Characteristics of Thyroid Cancer
The effect of iodine nutritional status on thyroid cancer has been controversial for many years. We designed a prospective cohort study that recruiting patients in different iodine areas who underwent thyroid cancer surgery in branch hospitals from 2012 to 2019，and follow up their clinical outcomes. We aimed to analyse the …
