Risk Factors of Deterioration in Quality of Life Scores in Thyroid Cancer Patients After Thyroidectomy.

Objective: Despite the expectation of normal life expectancy for thyroid cancer, there are concerns about the decreased quality of life (QoL). The present study investigated the potential risk factors of deterioration in QoL scores in thyroid cancer patients after thyroidectomy.

Materials And Methods: A total of 286 patients who were diagnosed with thyroid cancer after thyroidectomy were involved in this prospective, single-center, observational study from November 2018 to June 2019.

Diffuse optical spectroscopy for monitoring the responses of patients with breast cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy: A meta-analysis.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the potential of diffuse optical spectroscopy (DOT) for monitoring the responses of patients with breast cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).

Methods: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Web of Science for relevant studies. Data were extracted for pooled analysis, heterogeneity testing, threshold effect testing, sensitivity analysis, publication bias analysis, and subgroup analysis.

Risk of venous and arterial thromboembolic events associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors in advanced thyroid cancer: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

To assess the incidence and risk of arterial and venous thromboembolic events (ATEs and VTEs) associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in advanced thyroid cancer patients. We comprehensively searched EMBASE, Pubmed, and Cochrane Library for relevant trials. Prospective clinical trials evaluating the role of TKIs alone in advanced thyroid cancer patients were included for analysis.
