Real-time elastography for the differentiation of benign and malignant thyroid nodules: a meta-analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, a meta-analysis was performed to assess the overall performance of real-time elastography (RTE) for the differentiation of thyroid nodules, using an inverse variance method and the Der Simonian and Laird Random effect estimator in case of established heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A promoter polymorphism of the CYP27B1 gene is associated with Addison's disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease and type 1 diabetes mellitus in Germans

TL;DR: A significant association was found between allelic variation of the promoter (-1260) C/A polymorphism and Addison's disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease and type 1 diabetes mellitus, implying a regulatory difference of the CYP27B1 hydroxylase to predispose to endocrine autoimmunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse-Imaging for the evaluation of the thyroid gland: a limited patient feasibility study.

TL;DR: ARFI can be performed in the thyroid tissue with reliable results and a significant difference was found between malignant thyroid nodules on the one hand and healthy thyroid tissue andhealthy thyroid tissue (p=0.018) or benign thyroid nodule (p =0.014) on the other hand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse Imaging for Differentiation of Thyroid Nodules

TL;DR: ARFI can be used as an additional tool in the diagnostic work up of thyroid nodules with high negative predictive value and comparable results to RTE.
