The natural history of cytologically low-risk indeterminate thyroid nodules.
J Clin Endocrinol Metab
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine and Therapeutics, University of Pavia, 27100 Pavia, Italy.
Background: Thyroid nodules classified cytologically as low-risk indeterminate lesions (TIR3A) on fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) present a clinical challenge due to their uncertain malignancy risk. This single-center study aimed to evaluate the natural history of TIR3A nodules.
Materials And Methods: FNABs performed between July 2017 and December 2019 were retrospectively retrieved and patients with TIR3A nodules were evaluated at baseline and throughout a follow-up based on ultrasound (US) parameters and clinical data.
Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy of Adrenal Gland Lesions: The Roles of Image Guidance, Rapid On-Site Evaluation and Additional Tissue Sampling.
Cytopathology
January 2025
Department of Pathology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA.
Objective: An accurate fine-needle aspiration (FNA) diagnosis of adrenal lesions may be challenging. This study was to investigate roles of imaging guidance, rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) and additional tissue sampling in FNA diagnosis of adrenal lesions.
Methods: Adrenal FNA cases were retrieved from pathology archive.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital, Abakaliki, Nigeria.
Background: Cervical cancer is the most common gynaecological cancer worldwide, causing morbidity and mortality, especially in developing countries like Nigeria. It develops from premalignant lesions of the cervix. Human immune deficiency virus (HIV) increases the risk of dysplastic changes in the cervix.

Department of Pathology and Genomic Medicine, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, University of Miami Hospital, Miami, Florida.
Introduction: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-low breast cancer, defined by HER2 immunohistochemistry scores of 1+ or 2+ without gene amplification, represents a unique subgroup with emerging therapeutic implications. Limited data describe the behavior of HER2-low tumors, particularly in metastatic settings. This study evaluated the frequency of HER2-low expression, Ki-67 proliferation index, and survival outcomes across HER2 subtypes in metastatic breast carcinoma using cytology specimens.

January 2025
Experimental Therapy Department, Iraqi Center for Cancer and Medical Genetic Research. Mustansiriyah University, Baghdad, Iraq.
Background: The use of bacterial vaccines as a potential Bacterial-Based Cancer Therapy (BBCT) presents an innovative approach, transforming these vaccines into multifunctional tools capable of serving dual roles in medicine.
Materials And Methods: This study aimed to conduct in vitro, immunity-independent experiments to investigate the anticancer properties of vaccine-derived bacterial toxoids on various cancer cell lines. Six concentrations of the DTP vaccine (5 x 10-4, 25 x 10-5, 125 x 10-6, 625 x 10-7, 312 x 10-7, and 15 x 10-6 µg/ml) were tested on two cancer cell lines (SKG and HCAM) and a normal Rat Embryonic Fibroblast (REF) cell line.
