TLDR
Evidence-based recommendations are developed to inform clinical decision-making in the management of thyroid nodules and differentiated thyroid cancer and represent, in the authors' opinion, contemporary optimal care for patients with these disorders.Abstract:
Background: Thyroid nodules are a common clinical problem, and differentiated thyroid cancer is becoming increasingly prevalent. Since the American Thyroid Association's (ATA's) guidelines for the management of these disorders were revised in 2009, significant scientific advances have occurred in the field. The aim of these guidelines is to inform clinicians, patients, researchers, and health policy makers on published evidence relating to the diagnosis and management of thyroid nodules and differentiated thyroid cancer. Methods: The specific clinical questions addressed in these guidelines were based on prior versions of the guidelines, stakeholder input, and input of task force members. Task force panel members were educated on knowledge synthesis methods, including electronic database searching, review and selection of relevant citations, and critical appraisal of selected studies. Published English language articles on adults were eligible for inclusion. The American College of Physicians Guideline Gr...read more

TL;DR: The GLOBOCAN 2020 estimates of cancer incidence and mortality produced by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as mentioned in this paper show that female breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, with an estimated 2.3 million new cases (11.7%), followed by lung cancer, colorectal (11 4.4%), liver (8.3%), stomach (7.7%) and female breast (6.9%), and cervical cancer (5.6%) cancers.

TL;DR: Lymphedema is a common complication after treatment for breast cancer and factors associated with increased risk of lymphedEMA include extent of axillary surgery, axillary radiation, infection, and patient obesity.

Subsequent Fertility and Birth Histories of Children and Adolescents Treated with 131I for Thyroid Cancer
TL;DR: The study offers no overt evidence of genetic damage in children and adolescents treated with high doses of 131I for thyroid carcinoma and the incidences of infertility, miscarriage, prematurity, and major congenital anomaly found in this series are not significantly different from those in the general population.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that PE/WC FVPTCs have a very low metastatic potential/recurrence risk, indicating that they should be distinguished from more aggressive infiltrative FVP TCs.

TL;DR: Routine measurement of serum calcitonin concentration is suggested to be useful in the early detection of MTC among patients with nodular thyroid diseases and pentagastrin stimulation test was not sensitive in detecting MTC.
