Background: Emerging studies have demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are key regulators for tumorigenesis in cancers, including papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). In this study, we aimed to explore the effects of circ_LDLR on PTC.

Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to determine the levels of circ_LDLR, miR-195-5p and lipase H (LIPH).

Background: This study was designed to explore whether ultrasound of thyroid nodules facilitates the interpretation of the malignant risk of Bethesda III/IV thyroid nodules to inform further therapies.

Methods: We reviewed patient records in which the results of ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (US-FNA) were classified by the Bethesda III/IV in our institution between January 2016 and June 2018. Studies were retrieved from PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, ISI Web of Science, Science Direct, Wiley Online Library, EMBASE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, and Chinese VIP.

Introduction: The total extraperitoneal (TEP) laparoscopic repair of a groin hernia is increasingly being used because of less pain, rapid recovery, and low recurrence rate, but different variants of surgical approaches for TEP are reported by a number of centers and the merits and demerits associated with each approach are not well described. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcome of laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal inguinal hernioplasty (TEP) with 4 different variants of surgical approach.

Methods: Between August 2004 and March 2008, 99 patients with unilateral inguinal hernia who underwent TEP without mesh fixation through 4 different variants of surgical approach depended on the anatomical positions of abdominal wall were enrolled in this prospective randomized study.
