The prevalence of thyroid focal lesions detected by imaging techniques, according to studies on different populations, ranges from 10 to 70%. In a population of women over 50 years of age, approximately half of them will have a thyroid focal lesion. However, only 18% of thyroid nodules are diagnosed as malignant. Thyroid nodular disease is the most frequently diagnosed endocrine pathology, while thyroid cancer constitues the most common endocrine malignancy and is reponsible for about 67% of deaths due to neoplasms derived from endocrine organs. The incidence of thyroid cancer has risen by about 240% in the last three decades. Due to the increased availability of imaging techniques, recently, a rise in the detectability of thyroid cancer at the stage of microcarcinoma has been observed. Diagnostic and therapeutic decisions in patients with thyroid nodules require an interdisciplinary consensus between endocrinologists and physicians of other specialities (radiologists, pathologists, surgeons, oncologists). This book focuses on current trends in novel techniques of thyroid nodule diagnostics before they are implemented in the current guidelines on the management of thyroid nodular disease.Medicine and NursingbicsscBRAFV600Ecare pathwayCOLD-PCRcomplicationscomputer-aided diagnosisdigital PCRectopic mediastinal localizationectopic thymusEU-TIRADSFCHFECfine-needle aspiration cytologyguidelineshyperparathyroidisminterobserver variabilityliquid biopsyloss of signalmetastasismetastatic lymph nodesn/apapillary thyroid cancerparathyroid adenomaparathyroid scintigraphyparathyroid sonographyparathyroidectomypersistent hypercalcemiapersistent renal hyperparathyroidismPET-CTpostsurgical hypoparathyroidismprimary hyperparathyroidismPTCrecurrent renal hyperparathyroidismremedial surgeryrisk-factor analysisS-Detectshear wave elastographyshear wave sonoelastographySnail-1strain elastographythyroidthyroid cancerthyroid nodulethyroid nodulesthyroid surgerytime coursetissue aspirate parathyroid hormone assayultrasoundvocal cord dysfunctionvocal cord palsyMedicine and NursingRuchala Marekedt1293845Szczepanek-Parulska EwelinaedtRuchala MarekothSzczepanek-Parulska EwelinaothBOOK9910595075203321Novel Methods of Diagnostics of Thyroid and Parathyroid Lesions3041198UNINA04909nam 2201189z- 450 991055746390332120210501(CKB)5400000000043160(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68482(oapen)doab68482(EXLCZ)99540000000004316020202105d2021 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCurrent Advances in Anaerobic Digestion TechnologyBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20211 online resource (230 p.)3-0365-0222-X 3-0365-0223-8 Anaerobic digestion (AD) is one of the oldest biotechnological processes and originally referred to biomass degradation under anoxic conditions in both natural and engineered systems. It has been used for decades to treat various waste streams and to produce methane-rich biogas as an important energy carrier, and it has become a major player in electrical power production. AD is a popular, mature technology, and our knowledge about the influencing process parameters as well as about the diverse microbial communities involved in the process has increased dramatically over the last few decades. To avoid competition with food and feed production, the AD feedstock spectrum has constantly been extended to waste products either rich in recalcitrant lignocellulose or containing inhibitory substances such as ammonia, which requires application of various pre-treatments or specific management of the microbial resources. Extending the definition of AD, it can also convert gases rich in hydrogen and carbon dioxide into methane that can substitute natural gas, which opens new opportunities by a direct link to traditional petrochemistry. Furthermore, AD can be coupled with emerging biotechnological applications, such as microbial electrochemical technologies or the production of medium-chain fatty acids by anaerobic fermentation. Ultimately, because of the wide range of applications, AD is still a very vital field in science.
