Introduction: Women presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding needs careful and thorough assessment including ultrasound examination of endometrium and histopathological assessment of the endometrial tissues. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to determine the rate and the factors associated with inadequate endometrial tissues after endometrial sampling using MedGyn® pipette among Bhutanese women at the colposcopy clinic, Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital (JDWNRH), Bhutan.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the colposcopy clinic, JDWNRH, Thimphu between October, 2021 and March, 2022.

Thyroglossal duct cyst is the most common thyroid developmental abnormality with a prevalence of 7%, but thyroglossal duct cyst cancer is rare. The incidence of thyroglossal duct cyst cancer is about 1%. The diagnosis is limited by low yield on fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), and most cases are diagnosed after surgery.

Copper-based catalyst is uniquely positioned to catalyze the hydrocarbon formations through electrochemical CO reduction. The catalyst design freedom is limited for alloying copper with H-affinitive elements represented by platinum group metals because the latter would easily drive the hydrogen evolution reaction to override CO reduction. We report an adept design of anchoring atomically dispersed platinum group metal species on both polycrystalline and shape-controlled Cu catalysts, which now promote targeted CO reduction reaction while frustrating the undesired hydrogen evolution reaction.
