Optimizing Care for Older Adults Through Thyroid Hormone Deprescribing
The proposed study focuses on testing a novel adapted evidence-based multilevel intervention, Deprescribing Thyroid Hormone In Older Adults (D-THIO), to support thyroid hormone deprescribing (dose de-escalation and/or discontinuation) in older adults with thyroid hormone overtreatment and/or misuse and reduce patient harm. Findings from this study will lay the groundwork for …
Function Integrity of Neck Anatomy in Thyroid Surgery
Recent trends in the management of patients with low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma who have a nonsuspicious or cytologically benign contralateral nodule call into question the need for routine total thyroidectomy. Although the lobectomy for the unilateral thyroid cancer with contralateral benign nodules is sufficient treatment, some of the patients might …
A Prospective, Open-label, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Phase III Study of Prophylactic Central Neck Dissection in Low-risk Papillary Thyroid Cancer
papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common thyroid cancer and has a good prognosis. Surgery is the primary treatment for PTC, and occult lymph node metastasis is not uncommon (20%-80%).The lymph node metastasis of PTC is mostly along the lymphatic drainage path station by station, and most of the …
A Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of FORE8394 in Participants With Cancer Harboring BRAF Alterations
The objective of this Master Protocol is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of plixorafenib in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, or recurrent or progressive primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors harboring BRAF fusions, or in participants with rare BRAF V600-mutated solid tumors, melanoma, thyroid, or recurrent …
Pharmaceutical Management in Targeted Radioligand Therapy
Targeted Radionuclide Therapy (TRT) is a treatment modality used in nuclear medicine to target cancer cells while preserving surrounding healthy tissues. This approach is based on the use of radiopharmaceuticals (RPs)-compounds that combine a radioactive isotope with a molecule designed to selectively bind to cancer cells. TRT has historical roots, …
The Outcomes of Ultrasound-guided Thermal Ablation for Benign Thyroid Nodules
To evaluate the clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided thermal ablationfor the treatment of benign thyroid nodules; To develop and validate a artificial intelligence model to predict the outcomes of ultrasound-guided thermal ablation in the treatment of benign thyroid nodules
Laryngopharyngeal Injury After Endotracheal Intubation Under General Anesthesia
This study retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent tracheal intubation under general anesthesia at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine between October 1, 2015, and September 30, 2025, with a focus on issues related to postoperativelaryngopharyngeal complaints. Patients requiring otolaryngological consultation due to postoperative laryngopharyngeal complaints were …
Evaluation of DNA Methylation Signatures for the Diagnosis and Management of Thyroid Nodules
This clinical trial evaluates deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation signatures in diagnosing and managing thyroid nodules. The purpose of this research is to develop a new test for thyroid cancer. This test will use needle biopsies (small collections of tissue with a needle) from the thyroid to determine whether the participant …
Huaxi Tunnel Technique For Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Exposure And Dissection In Thyroid Surgery
Protection of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is a key focus and difficulty in thyroid surgery. Unilateral RLN injury can lead to ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis, resulting in hoarseness in patients postoperatively. Bilateral RLN injury, however, may cause bilateral vocal cord paralysis, leading to dyspnea and even asphyxiation; in severe …
Preoperative Prediction of Lymph Node Metastasis in T1N0M0 Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma by Using Contrast-enhanced Ultrasound
Similarly, the burden of central lymph node metastasis affects the individualized management of patients with T1N0M0 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC): lymph node metastasis is a contraindication to thermal ablation; low-burden lymph node metastasis is suitable for lobectomy; and high-burden lymph node metastasis recommends total thyroidectomy. However, conventional preoperative imaging examinations …
