Background: At present, there are no definite criteria for selecting patients eligible for same-day discharge after percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). With rapid ambulation and reduced vascular complication rates, transradial PCI have many features that favorably reduce costs and hospital stay. This study aimed to demonstrate the possibility of early ambulatory discharge following transradial percutaneous coronary interventions.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the commonest visceral cancer in men worldwide. Introduction of serum PSA as a highly specific biomarker for prostatic diseases has led to a dramatic increase in the diagnosis of early stage PCa in last decades. Guidelines underline that benefits as well as risks and squeals of early diagnosis and treatment should be discussed with patients.

Invited medical book chapters are usually requested by editors from experienced authors who have made significant contributions to the literature in certain fields requested by an editor from an experienced. Before the start of the writing process a consensus should be established between the editor and the author with regard to the title, deadline, specific instructions and content of the manuscript. Certain issues concerning a chapter can be negotiated by the parties beforehand, but some issues cannot.

Mutations in the thyroglobulin (TG) gene have been reported to cause congenital hypothyroidism (CH) and we have been investigating the genetic architecture of CH in a large cohort of consanguineous/multi-case families. Our aim in this study was to determine the genetic basis of CH in four affected individuals coming from two separate consanguineous families. Since CH is usually inherited in autosomal recessive manner in consanguineous/multi-case families, we adopted a two-stage strategy of genetic linkage studies and targeted sequencing of the TG gene.

Background: The purpose of this study was to describe an arthroscopic technique for lateral parameniscal cyst (LPC) decompression with preservation of meniscal substance and to report the short- to mid-term outcome of 20 patients.
Methods: All patients underwent a complete physical examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the knee prior to surgery. After arthroscopic diagnosis of a LPC, partial lateral meniscectomy was performed via anterolateral (AL) and anteromedial (AM) portals.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the genetic background of thyroid dyshormonogenesis (TDH).
Context: Thyroid dyshormonogenesis comprises 10-15% of all cases of congenital hypothyroidism (CH), which is the most common neonatal endocrine disorder, and might result from disruptions at any stage of thyroid hormone biosynthesis. Currently seven genes (NIS, TPO, PDS, TG, IYD, DUOX2 and DUOXA2) have been implicated in the aetiology of the disease.
