This study evaluates the clinical significance of nano-carbon suspension in total thyroidectomy with cervical lymph node dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of nano-carbon suspension in enhancing parathyroid gland preservation, reducing postoperative complications, and improving surgical precision. A retrospective analysis on 219 PTC patients who underwent total thyroidectomy with cervical lymph node dissection between March 2014 and March 2018 was conducted.

The NUDT family is thought to play an important role in cancer growth and progression. However, the clinicopathologic significance and potential role of nucleotide diphosphate-linked X-component motif 21, NM_007006 (NUDT21) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains largely unknown. In this study, we observed that NUDT21 was frequently up-expressed in PDAC.
