OBJECTIVE
To observe the clinical efficacy of transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation (TAES) combined intravenous injection and/or Neiguan (P6) injection with droperidol in preventing and treating post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after thyroid tumor surgery.
METHODS
Recruited were
Lenvatinib is a small oral molecule able to inhibit three of the extracellular and intracellular molecules involved in the modulation of angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis: vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1-3, fibroblast growth factor receptor 1-4, and platelet-derived growth factor
Lenvatinib mesylate (E7080; 4-[3-chloro-4-(N'-cyclopropylureido) phenoxy] 7-methoxyquinoline-6-carboxamide mesylate) is an oral molecule that inhibits multiple tyrosine kinase receptors such as VEGF-R-1-3, FGF-R-1-4, RET, c-KIT and PDGF-R-β. Phase I studies identified the maximum tolerated dose to
BACKGROUND
We postulated that palonosetron, a novel antiemetic agent, might have the effect of alleviating injection pain from propofol and rocuronium. A double-blind, controlled study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of palonosetron on injection pain during total intravenous anesthesia and
Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte disorder in hospitalized patients, especially in elderly patients, in which morbidity varies widely in severity. A 64-year-old Thai woman with papillary thyroid cancer who developed hypothyroid state after thyroid hormone withdrawal for preparation of
Recombinant TSH is effective in providing exogenous TSH stimulation for patients with differentiated thyroid cancer on thyroid hormone-suppressive therapy. It allows for detection of thyroid remnant and metastases by radioiodine scan and by serum thyroglobulin determination. The sensitivity and
During the administration of recombinant human TSH (rhTSH) to monitor differentiated thyroid carcinoma, mild side effects, such as nausea and headaches, often occur. The origin of these is not clear. Since changes in TSH and thyroid hormones can modulate some endothelial-derived factors, we aimed at
Medullary thyroid cancers (MTCs) are neuroendocrine tumors, which secrete calcitonin and carcinoembryonic antigen, both of which can serve as tumor markers. Extensive and accurate surgical resection is the primary treatment for MTC, whereas the use of external beam radiotherapy is limited. Moreover,
BACKGROUND
Agents such as aflibercept, which target the angiogenic pathway, are of great interest as candidates for the management of metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer. Here, we report a patient who developed a hemorrhagic abdominal pseudoaneurysm shortly after being started on this
Many clinicians care for patients who have been treated for differentiated thyroid cancer. Recombinant thyrotropin, which stimulates iodine uptake in thyroid tissue, is a safe and effective diagnostic agent for those patients who require radioiodine scanning for routine follow-up. The combination of
OBJECTIVE
This study tested the hypothesis that administration of human recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH: Thyrogen, thyrotropin alpha) could promote iodine-131 ((131)I) uptake in the therapy for metastatic or locally invasive differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), obviating L-thyroxine
An unusual encounter of a thyroid storm, on two separate occasions, is reported in a patient with metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer following initially direct trauma to, and later tumour embolisation of, a metastatic skeletal lesion. Shortly after a fall, our patient presented with pain and
BACKGROUND
Radioiodine-131 (I131) therapy for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is generally a safe and effective treatment, but it has some potential side effects, which have been well described in adults but less analyzed in children. Our aim was to describe early and late adverse events of
BACKGROUND
The purpose of the meta-analysis was to estimate the effectiveness and toxicity of low activity radioiodine ablation versus high activity in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC).
METHODS
A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed by including all randomized trials of
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and adverse effects of radioiodine (131I) therapy between two groups of patients with low-risk differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) who received 30 mCi or 100 mCi radioiodine for ablation of the thyroid remnant after total
