Iodine Uptake After a Low Iodine Diet
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the difference in thyroid uptake of a low dose radioactive iodine (10 MBq 123-I or 37 MBq 123-I) in athyreotic patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma before and after a low iodine diet (LID) of 7 days. The main question it aims …
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.
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 …
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 …
Public Perceptions Toward Robotic Surgery, Telesurgery and Telemedicine
This study aims to systematically assess the public's and clinicians' levels of awareness, attitudes, risk perception, acceptance, and potential concerns regarding robotic surgery and telesurgery. It also analyzes the key factors influencing their attitudes and explores the needs of physicians regarding training systems for robotic and telesurgery, as well as …
Evaluation of the Role of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in Adult Patients Undergoing Assessment for Endocrine Disorders
Hormones are chemical messengers that help regulate many functions in the body. As women go through menopause, and as men age, levels of certain reproductive hormones change significantly. One of these hormones, luteinizing hormone (LH), increases substantially after menopause and may also rise in some men. Another hormone, human chorionic …
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 …
