Objectives: Microwave ablation (MWA) has achieved excellent long-term efficacy in treating unifocal papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (UPTMC). The therapeutic effect of this treatment on multifocal papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (MPTMC) is unknown. Therefore, we evaluated the long-term efficacy of MWA for low-risk MPTMC and to provide evidence-based medicine for the revision of clinical guidelines.

Objectives: (1) To compare the American College of Radiology (ACR) thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TIRADS) and American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines for thyroid nodules with regard to diagnostic performance and effectiveness at reducing the number of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies and to preliminarily discuss the reasons for the differences and (2) to compare the diagnostic performance of the two guidelines in the subgroup of nodules <1 cm in diameter.

Materials And Methods: In the present study, 1000 thyroid nodules in 894 consecutive patients with final diagnoses were included; these thyroid nodules were investigated via FNA biopsies in our hospital. The ultrasound (US) features of the thyroid nodules were reviewed and stratified according to the categories defined by the ACR TIRADS and ATA guidelines.

Purpose: To assess the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) for primary papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) with a large sample of 185 patients.

Methods: A total of 185 patients underwent MWA for 206 primary PTMC nodules. They received ultrasound follow-up at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after MWA and every 6 months thereafter.

Objectives: To analyze the clinical significance of using hepatic transit time (HTT) to evaluate portal vein pressure in gastroesophageal varices patients.

Methods: For the observation group, we enrolled 50 gastroesophageal varices patients who had received esophagogastric variceal embolization in our hospital between January 2015 and February 2018. Patients without liver disease populated the control group and were recruited during the same time period.

AIM:To study the short-term effect of Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) on acetic acid induced chronic gastric ulcer in rats and its long-term effect in preventing recurrence.METHODS:Rats with acetic acid-induced gastric ulcer were treated with Danshen and cimetidine for 30 days.Traditional gastric mucosal auto-radiography and (3)H-TdR incorporation into gastric mucosa in vitro were employed to study the effects of Danshen in rat acetic acid-induced chronic gastric ulcer, including ulcer index (UI), ulcer inhibitory rate (IR) and label rate (LR).
