This prospective observational study aims to investigate the association between maternal thyroid function, maternal anxiety levels, and fetal cardiotocography parameters in high-risk pregnancies. Pregnant women at 32 weeks of gestation or later who are followed in the perinatology outpatient clinic for high-risk pregnancy will be included. Maternal thyroid function test …
The detection rate of thyroid cancer (PTC) has increased rapidly in recent years. Except undifferentiated cancer, surgery is still one of the most important treatments for all types of thyroid cancer, and there is a consensus to use the lobes of the gland as the minimum extent of resection. In …
The purpose of this study is to determine whether results from a fine needle biopsy are the same as results from a larger sample that is acquired from the surgical pathology using the Thyroid GuidePx® test in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma.
Historically, performing a contralateral thyroid lobectomy and lymph node dissection via the subclavian approach was considered challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of single-incision gasless endoscopic total thyroidectomy and central compartment neck dissection via the subclavian approach (SCA) in comparison to conventional open surgery for the …
This trial develops and studies how well a patient decision aid works in supporting decision-making about when to start or stop new drugs, join clinical trials, or continue active cancer monitoring for patients with medullary thyroid cancer and their caregivers. Developing a patient decision aid may help patients with medullary …
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is an almost invariable lethal cancer in humans. Most patients present with a rapid progressive mass in the neck with progressive complaints like dyspnoea, dysphagia or pain. The risk of suffocation is the main reason for rapid surgical intervention, but we know from literature that an …
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and prognosis of ultrasound-guided and gene-based microwave ablation (MWA) versus surgical treatment in patients with low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). By analyzing genetic testing results, the study explores the impact of genetic mutations on treatment selection for low-risk patients, providing more precise molecular …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lavender aromatherapy in adult patients undergoing awake otolaryngologic procedures in the outpatient clinic setting. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does lavender aromatherapy help reduce anxiety and/or pain, and improve patient comfort during awake otolaryngologic procedures in …
FAPI PET has been developed as a promising approach for the evaluation of fibroinflammatory, such as in inflammatory bowel disease. This prospective study aims to explore the value of 18F-AlF-FAPI PET/CT in assessing the activity of Thyroid Eye Disease (TED) and investigate whether FAPI PET/CT may be superior to 99mTc-DTPA …
Retro-prospective, exploratory, single-centre observational study conducted at the Endrocrine-Metabolic Diseases Centre of the Pediatrics Unit, IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna, Italy. The primary aim is to assess, by NGS sequencing of a panel of target genes, the frequency and type of variants with potential pathogenic significance in a patient population …
