Department of Endocrine Surgery, University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, UK.
Background: Traditional teaching dictated that patients with recurrent thyroid cysts undergo excision owing to a 12% risk malignancy. Ultrasound evaluation now determines management of these patients augmented by fine needle biopsy. In UK, a non-diagnostic category for thyroid cysts (Thy1c) exists, whereas the Bethesda system combines 'non-diagnostic-cyst fluid only' into Category I along with paucicellular and acellular results.

Hyperthyroidism is linked to several muscle disorders, including thyrotoxic myopathy, myasthenia gravis, and periodic paralysis. Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is a rare and potentially life-threatening neuromuscular condition that predominantly affects Asian males and is characterized by muscle weakness, hypokalemia, and thyrotoxicosis. Treatment involves potassium supplementation, and beta-blockers.

Department of Endocrinology, Ningbo Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Zhejiang Chinese Medical University, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China.
Introduction: The interplay between emotional disorders and thyroid disorders has been subject to numerous observational studies, which have consistently reported associations but have failed to establish clear causal links due to the multifactorial etiology and influences. We conducted a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to explore the genetic causal association between emotional disorders and thyroid disorders.
Methods: We employed several methods, including inverse-variance weighted (IVW), weighted median, weighted mode, and MR Egger regression.

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is a rare but significant complication of hyperthyroidism, characterized by episodes of muscle weakness or paralysis and associated hypokalemia. This case report details a 30-year-old Latin American male with a history of Graves' disease, presenting with acute muscle weakness and hypokalemia. The patient reported transient episodes of weakness over recent weeks, culminating in a severe episode prompting emergency evaluation.

Division of Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology, Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, KJF Klinikum Josefinum, Augsburg, Germany.
Patients with MCT8 deficiency often present with underweight and are prone to frequent pulmonary infections, including aspiration pneumonia. Despite commonly reported swallowing difficulties in this population, specific dysphagia symptoms have not been well-documented. We conducted a flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) on a young boy diagnosed with MCT8 deficiency, who exhibited recurrent pulmonary infections and failed to achieve substantial weight gain despite an oral energy intake appropriate for his age and height.
