概括
甲状腺结节的大小不能预测无定性甲状腺结节 (ITN) 的癌症风险. 这项研究没有发现显著的相关性,这表明单独的大小并不是对ITN恶性瘤的可靠指标.
科学领域:
- 内分泌学 在内分泌学.
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 手术病理学手术病理学
背景情况:
- 不确定的甲状腺结节 (ITN) 尺寸和恶性瘤风险之间的关系受到争论.
- 在ITN中准确预测癌症对于适当的患者管理至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 研究结核大小对ITN患者癌症风险预测的影响.
- 为了确定结节的大小是否是评估ITNs恶性瘤的可靠因素.
主要方法:
- 一项对113名经过手术的ITNs患者的横截面研究.
- 患者被分为两组:结节<4厘米和≥4厘米.
- 分析包括结节大小,恶性瘤风险,人口统计,TSH水平和超声波特征.
主要成果:
- 结节大小和恶性瘤风险之间没有发现显著的相关性 (P=0.55).
- 小于4厘米的结节与提升的TSH水平有关 (P=0.03).
- ≥4厘米的结节与高血管性相关 (P=0.04).
结论:
- 结节大小不是在不确定的甲状腺结节中恶性瘤风险的预测因素.
- 需要进一步的前性研究来验证这些发现.

01:23The Thyroid Gland
3.8K
The thyroid gland is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck and covers the anterior surface of the trachea. The gland has two lateral lobes connected by a thin tissue mass called the isthmus. Internally, each lobe comprises many small spherical structures known as thyroid follicles, surrounded by a network of blood vessels.
The follicles have a central cavity lined by simple cuboidal to squamous epithelial cells called follicular cells. These cells produce the glycoprotein...

8.8K
The nucleolus is the most prominent substructure of the nucleus. When it was first discovered, it was considered to be an isolated organelle that forms fibrils and granules. In 1931, the relationship between the nucleolus and chromosomes was first described by Heitz. He observed that the appearance and size of nucleolus varies depending on the stage of the cell cycle. He also noticed constricted regions on different chromosomes clustered together at definite cell cycle stages. These regions,...
