The effect of high dose radioiodine therapy on formation of radiation retinopathy during thyroid cancer treatment.

Objective: Non-thyroidal complication of high-dose radioiodine therapy for thyroid carcinoma might cause salivary and lacrimal gland dysfunction, which may be transient or permanent in a dose-dependent manner. However, radiation retinopathy complicating 131I therapy, has not been previously well characterized. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of retinal damage among patients who had received high doses of radioiodine treatment.

Synthesis and investigation of tuberculosis inhibition activities of some 1,2,3-triazole derivatives.

In this study, alpha-diazo-beta-oxoaldehyde compounds were condensed with different amines to yield 4-acyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole derivatives. The 1,2,3-triazole compounds were investigated for their inhibition activities against tuberculosis.
