Noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) can be differentiated from invasive encapsulated follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (eFV-PTC) by the presence of a tumor capsule or blood vessel invasion in histological examination. The objective of this study was to investigate whether it is possible to distinguish between NIFTP and invasive eFV-PTC before surgery. Patients diagnosed with NIFTP and invasive eFV-PTC from 2017 to 2023 were analyzed for biochemical, ultrasonographic, and cytological features.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver disorder closely linked to metabolic syndrome. Identifying novel, easily measurable biomarkers could significantly enhance the diagnosis and management of NAFLD in clinical settings. Recent studies suggest that immunoinflammatory biomarkers-specifically, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR)-may offer diagnostic value for NAFLD.

Objectives: To investigate the roles of the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and other biochemical markers obtained from maternal blood in determining the diagnosis and severity of pregnancy cholestasis.

Material And Methods: In this retrospective case-control study, a total of 815 pregnant women including 546 healthy pregnant women [serum total bile acid (TBA) level < 10 μmol/L, control group], 185 patients with mild cholestasis [serum TBA level < 40 μmol/L, mild intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) group] and 84 patients with severe cholestasis (serum TBA level ≥ 40 μmol/L, severe ICP group) were evaluated. The groups were compared regarding demographic data, clinical characteristics, SIRI (neutrophilcount*monocytecount/lymphocyte count), and other laboratory data.

Introduction: Advanced penile squamous cell carcinoma (pSCC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis and an unmet need for biomarkers. We performed a retrospective evaluation of real-world efficacy, safety outcomes, and baseline inflammatory biomarkers in patients with advanced pSCC treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).

Methods: We performed a retrospective review of patients with advanced pSCC who received ICIs from 2012 to 2023 at the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University in Atlanta, GA.

Peripheral blood biomarkers as differential diagnostic markers of disease severity in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia.

Heliyon

January 2025

Department of Hematology and Immunohematology, School of Biomedical and Laboratory Sciences, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Gondar, Ethiopia.

Background: Blood biomarkers offers an independent insight for the pathophysiology of hyperbilirubinemia. However, they are not practically used for the differential diagnosis of the hyperbilirubinemia severity. Therefore, the current study aimed to assess the differential diagnostic value of peripheral blood biomarkers with disease severity as an alternative.
