The effect of radioiodine therapy on blood cell count in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the long-term effects of radioiodine treatment (RAI) on blood cell counts in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and to describe the characteristics of patients at high risk for blood cell count abnormalities.

Methods: The study included patients with DTC who underwent RAI treatment between 2007 and 2017. Patients with regular complete blood counts for at least 5 years were included, while those with diseases or treatments that could influence blood count parameters were excluded.

Does the Association of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis with Differentiated Thyroid Cancer Really Have a Protective Role?

The study is an investigation of aggressive tumor features, prognosis, and disease-specific mortality rates of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) in the presence of concomitant Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (HT). The data of patients with DTC followed in our tertiary care center between 2000-2022 were analyzed. Variables such as patient age, gender, preoperative serum autoantibody levels, tumor characteristics, and treatment modalities were obtained from medical records.

Relationship between pathological response and molecular subtypes in locally advanced breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Majority of patients with breast cancer were diagnosed with locally advanced stages of the disease (54%). This study aimed to explain the pathological response received to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) according to the molecular classification of breast cancer in patients with locally advanced tumors. One hundred and one patients with locally advanced breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy were analyzed.
