EXPLORATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THYROID NODULES. Most thyroid nodules are benign (95%) and can benefit from clinical and ultrasound monitoring. Cancers (approximately 5% of nodules) could be suspected, particularly in subjects whose neck was irradiated, in cases of a hard, irregular, evolving nodule, or with very high serum calcitonin (> 100 pg/ml).

Objective: Focal thyroid incidentaloma (TI) occurs in a 2% of F-FDG PET/CT and about one-third of TIs is cancer. Due to the lack of evidence on the optimal management of TI, current guidelines suggest performing fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNA). The study aim was to evaluate the reliability of ACR-TIRADS, EU-TIRADS, and K-TIRADS in indicating FNA in TIs.

Subclinical hyperthyroidism (sHT) was found to be associated with elevated heart rate, blood pressure and increased risk of extrasystoles. However, the full clinical relevance of morphological and functional implications of sHT on the cardiovascular system is still a matter of debate. The aim of the study was to prospectively assess the influence of endogenous sHT on exercise capacity and cardiac function during workout with the use of exercise electrocardiography (ExECG) and perfusion scintigraphy.

Background: To investigate whether flow-mediated dilation (FMD) impairment, which precedes overt atherosclerosis, is associated with silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) and asymptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 2 diabetes.
Methods: Forearm FMD was measured by ultrasonography in 25 healthy control, 30 non-diabetic overweight or obese patients and 118 asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients with a high cardiovascular risk profile. SMI (abnormal stress myocardial scintiscan and/or stress dobutamine echocardiogram) and CAD (coronary angiography in the patients with SMI) were assessed in the diabetic cohort.
