Background: Laryngotracheal invasion occurs in a subset of patients with well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC) and is associated with a poor prognosis. We aimed to analyze patterns and predictors/outcomes related to this high-risk manifestation.

Methods: This population-based analysis utilized the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry (2000 to 2015) to identify WDTC patients.

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) involves abnormal fat accumulation in the liver, mainly as triglycerides. It ranges from steatosis to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which can lead to inflammation, cellular damage, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial for regulating gene expression across various conditions.

Background: With rising well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC) incidence, the appropriate treatment choice remains controversial for T1 tumors <2 cm. This study analyzed differences in surgery refusal and survival outcomes between T1a (<1 cm) and T1b (1-2 cm) WDTC, examining the demographic and clinical characteristics associated with patients who decide to either undergo or refuse recommended surgery.

Methods: We studied 81,664 T1N0M0 WDTC patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry [2000-2019].
