Serum MicroRNA-146b Expression for Malignancy Prediction in Euthyroid Patients with Indeterminate Thyroid Nodules.

Thyroid nodules are frequently found, but the vast majority of them are benign. The difficulty in managing thyroid nodules is correctly diagnosing the minority of those who have malignancy. Thyroid fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) with indeterminate cytology continues to raise doubts about the presence of thyroid cancer, leading to an unnecessary thyroidectomy.

Study of the difficult glycemic control in relation to the presence of diabetes-autoantibodies in a sample of Egyptians with type 1 diabetes.

Background: T1DM is divided into 1A (immune-mediated), 1B (virus-triggered, genetic and idiopathic). Presence of auto-antibodies may be correlated to glycemic control.

Aim: Assessment relation between the autoantibodies and the poor glycemic control in T1DM.
