Hyperhidrosis is the most common type of sweat gland disorder. It may be localized or generalized. The localized type usually occurs in a symmetrical fashion over the palms, soles and armpits as a response to emotional stimuli. Another form of the localized type is idiopathic localized unilateral hyperhidrosis which is very rare and the etiopathogenesis remains unclear. Here, we report a female patient who had localized crossed hyperhidrotic areas on her body (on the left side of the scalp, face and the shoulder and on the right side of the trunk) and also had thyroid gland disease. We herein discuss this extremely rare presentation of the disease and its association with thyroid gland disease.

Development of a Deep Learning Tool to Support the Assessment of Thyroid Follicular Cell Hypertrophy in the Rat.

Thyroid tissue is sensitive to the effects of endocrine disrupting substances, and this represents a significant health concern. Histopathological analysis of tissue sections of the rat thyroid gland remains the gold standard for the evaluation for agrochemical effects on the thyroid. However, there is a high degree of variability in the appearance of the rat thyroid gland, and toxicologic pathologists often struggle to decide on and consistently apply a threshold for recording low-grade thyroid follicular hypertrophy.

The Nr4a nuclear hormone receptors are transcriptionally upregulated in response to antigen recognition by the T cell receptor (TCR) in the thymus and are implicated in clonal deletion, but the mechanisms by which they operate are not clear. Moreover, their role in central tolerance is obscured by redundancy among the Nr4a family members and by their reported functions in Treg generation and maintenance. Here we take advantage of competitive bone marrow chimeras and the OT-II/RIPmOVA model to show that Nr4a1 and Nr4a3 are essential for the upregulation of Bcl2l11/BIM and thymic clonal deletion by self-antigen.

Purpose: One of the most common and significant complications following thyroid surgery is postoperative hypocalcemia due to postoperative hypoparathyroidism. This study aimed to observe the effect of parathyroid gland autotransplantation on postoperative hypocalcemia in cases of incidental parathyroidectomy in total thyroidectomy cases.
Methods: Patients who underwent bilateral total thyroidectomy surgery were retrospectively analyzed.
Risk factors for increased drain output after endoscopic thyroidectomy via areola approach: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Endoscopic thyroidectomy (ET) offers superior cosmetic outcomes compared to traditional open thyroidectomy but is associated with higher postoperative drainage volumes (DV) and potential complications. Although ET via the areola approach (ETAA) has been used, the factors influencing DV after ETAA remain poorly understood. Therefore, this study aimed to identify clinical parameters that can objectively evaluate the factors influencing drainage volume after ETAA.

Division of Endocrine and Oncologic Surgery, Department of Surgery, School of Medicine, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA, USA.
Background: With rising well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC) incidence, the appropriate treatment choice remains controversial for T1 tumors <2 cm. This study analyzed differences in surgery refusal and survival outcomes between T1a (<1 cm) and T1b (1-2 cm) WDTC, examining the demographic and clinical characteristics associated with patients who decide to either undergo or refuse recommended surgery.
Methods: We studied 81,664 T1N0M0 WDTC patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry [2000-2019].
