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: The revised guidelines for the management of thyroid disease in pregnancy include recommendations regarding the interpretation of thyroid function tests in pregnancy, iodine nutrition, thyroid autoantibodies and pregnancy complications, thyroid considerations in infertile women, hypothyroidism in pregnancy and thyrotoxicosis in pregnancy.

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.

Radioiodine Treatment with 30 mCi after Recombinant Human Thyrotropin Stimulation in Thyroid Cancer: Effectiveness for Postsurgical Remnants Ablation and Possible Role of Iodine Content in l-Thyroxine in the Outcome of Ablation

TL;DR: The data show that rhTSH, as administered in the protocol stated previously, allows at least the same rate of ablation of thyroid remnants when low doses (30 mCi) of (131)I are used, and the possible role of interference of iodine content in L-T4 is not surprising.

TL;DR: PTC was frequently bilateral in this series and this bilaterality was independent from the "low-" or "high-risk" classification and it is believed that PTC should be treated with TT when diagnosed before surgery and submitted to CT, if partial surgery was the initial intervention.

TL;DR: A causal relationship between (131)I administration and NDSO is strongly suspected and patients reporting epiphora should be evaluated promptly by an oculoplastic surgeon.

TL;DR: Patients with higher serum Tg levels tend to have more extensive disease and should undergo more aggressive treatment modalities, Nevertheless, undetectable serum TG should not be considered as a reliable criteria to exclude a minimal tumor burden in patients who have already been treated with (131)I.
