Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is recognized as the most important cofactor in the etiology of cancers of the cervix, esophagus, larynx, and nasopharynx. Experimental evidence suggests that HPV could have an oncogenic influence on thyroid follicular cells; however, to the best of our knowledge, there is no record of its role in human thyroid gland neoplasms.
Objective: The purpose of this study is to describe the frequency and the types of HPV present in neoplastic thyroid tissue by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).
Background: Hypertension is the main cause of intracerebral hemorrhage with a thalamic location frequency that varies from 6% to 26.5%.
Objective: We aimed to identify clinical and radiological features that could impact the short-term prognosis in patients with hypertensive thalamic hemorrhage (HTH).
