Objectives: To compare the safety and efficacy of ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in the treatment of T1N0M0 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with adjacent and non-adjacent danger triangle area (DTA).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study involved collecting clinical data of all T1N0M0 PTC patients who underwent RFA between January 2018 and December 2020 at the hospital. A total of 211 patients were enrolled in the study (mean age 43.
Objectives: To compare the safety and efficiency of ultrasound-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and surgical resection (SR) for thyroid papillary carcinoma (PTC) in the danger triangle area.
Methods: The clinical data of 298 patients who underwent either percutaneous RFA or SR for PTC in the thyroid danger triangle at our hospital between January 2018 and April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Propensity score matching is employed to regulate for confounding factors.
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy of the first hepatic hilum lesion, and examine its clinical value of diagnosis and treatment.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study on patients diagnosed with the first hepatic hilum lesions at Fujian Provincial Hospital between February 2015 and October 2022. We selected patients who had lesions in the first hepatic hilum(including a 2cm surrounding area of the left/right hepatic ducts and upper-middle segment of the common bile duct) and the liver periphery(in the peripheral area of the liver, outside of the above-mentioned first hepatic porta region).
Objectives: To explore prevalence of depression and its influencing factors in middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic diseases.
Method: Data were extracted from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Tracking Survey (CHARLS) for 6,704 middle-aged and elderly patients ≥45 years with chronic diseases. The influencing variables were selected based on LASSO-logistic regression model, and a nomogram was further drawn to visualize regression results.
Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for solitary T1N0M0 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in the danger triangle area.
Methods: 94 participants (mean age 44.45 ± 13.
Advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a rare malignant tumor of biliary epithelial cells, known for its extremely unfavorable prognosis. In the absence of intervention, patients typically survive for less than 5 months. Current guidelines from the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO), National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), and European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) recommend chemotherapy-based systemic therapy as the standard treatment for advanced ICC.

Methods: By identifying the case's clinical, imaging, pathological features of a case of thyroid follicular carcinoma with bone metastasis, reflecting on the case's diagnosis and treatment process, and referring to literature about the characteristics of thyroid follicular carcinoma, the study aims to provide reference for the treatment of this kind of disease.
Result: A 67-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with clinical symptoms of left pelvic pain.
Primary hepatic angiosarcoma (PHA), a rare soft tissue tumor, accounts for only 2% of all liver malignancies. Pathologically challenging, PHA is difficult to be distinguished from other malignancies with ultrasound, Computed Tomography (CT), or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Due to late diagnosis and resistance against traditional chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, only 3% of PHA patients can survive up to two years after diagnosis.

Methods: Between January 2020 and January 2022, we prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 496 patients pathologically proven breast lesions in our hospital. The data set was divided into model training group and validation testing group with a 75/25 split.
Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma (EES) is a malignant tumor that is classified as a rare disease. EES is common in children and adolescents, with a rarer incidence being present in the elderly. ES of the primary intestine is rare, with only a few reports described in the literature.

The expression of SUMO1P3 in HCC tissues and cells was detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The chi-squared test was used to estimate the relationship between SUMO1P3 levels and clinical characteristics of HCC cases.

Methods: This retrospective study was institutional review board approved. A total of 120 patients (88 men and 32 women) with one hundred and thirty-four HCC lesions in high-risk locations from April 2014 to March 2018 were reviewed.
