A few studies have focused on skip metastasis, and the clinical and pathological risk factors remain uncertain. Some researchers have also proposed different models for predicting its occurrence, but their models were only based on the clinicopathologic characteristics, and none of them included US features. In this study, we retrospectively examined the incidence and related clinicopathologic and US characteristics of skip metastasis in PTC and papillary thyroid microcarcinoma.
- •
We established a nomogram for predicting the possibility of skip metastasis according to the clinicopathological and US features.
- •
The number of patients in this study is 1037, this sample is relatively larger than other study. The results of our study might be less bias.
- •
The effective rate of all-frequency SSNHL is 61.5%.
- •
The fibrinogen level is a useful predictor for the prognosis of all-frequency SSNHL.
- •
CRP, NLR, and PLR don’t have a significant prognostic effect on all-frequency SSNHL.
- •
Multidisciplinary study pre and post orthodontic intervention.
- •
Study by using of use videofluoroscopy before and after orthodontic treatment.
- •
Rapid maxillary expansion did not influence the studied masticatory and swallowing variables.
- •
Obesity and lipids cannot genetically increase the risk of allergic rhinitis.
- •
Interleukin-6 might contribute to the development of this disease.
- •
Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein perhaps promoted the onset of this disease.
- •
Bonferroni correction had the ability to eliminate these two correlations.
- •
The above findings can be instructive for future research on allergic rhinitis.
- •
Novel prognostic factors need to be developed in laryngeal cancer.
- •
Tumor budding is related to smaller tumor cell nest in laryngeal cancer.
- •
Tumor budding is related to higher pT stage in laryngeal cancer.
- •
Tumor budding is related to the low levels of TILs in laryngeal cancer.
- •
Tumor budding may predict recurrence and death of laryngeal cancer patients.
- •
Nasofibroscopy is a reliable test for assessing adenoid hypertrophy in children.
- •
No correlation has been demonstrated between adenoid hypertrophy and quality of life.
- •
Body mass index as an independent factor in the impact on quality of life.
- •
We report a novel mutation in COL1A1 causing osteogenesis imperfecta/hearing loss.
- •
Stapes surgery leads a significant reduction in hearing threshold and air-bone gap.
- •
Patients can obtain short- and long-term benefit from the stapes surgery.
- •
Orbital complications should be monitored by clinical signs and CT findings.
- •
ARS is rarely present in patients with eyelid cellulitis.
- •
OA is frequently associated with other complications.
- •
In front of an OA, surgery and IV antibiotics should be immediately started.
- •
Endolymphatic Hydrops (EH) in Meniere's Disease (MD) may be related to hearing loss.
- •
We investigated the relationship between EH and hearing loss characteristics in MD.
- •
Type and site of EH based real IR sequence can indicate the degree of hearing loss in MD.
- •
Melatonin provide protection against the ototoxic effects at 5, 6 and 8 kHz.
- •
The available paper’s methodology did not meet the rigor for replicability.
- •
New studies that establish a dose-effect curve of melatonin should be encouraged.
- •
Sialendoscopy was effective and safe in obstructive salivary glands diseases.
- •
Although it was an effective intervention, studies showed important heterogeneity.
- •
All reviews had critically low quality of evidence when using the AMSTAR-2 tool.
- •
We still lack comparative observational and interventional studies in sialendoscopy.
- •
Future reviews should follow guidelines to improve study conduction and reporting.
- •
The authors are unaware of a similar review until the search date.
- •
Cochlear dose measurement method varied between studies.
- •
The criterion to define the decline in hearing function also differed between studies.
- •
Publication bias was noted in the cohorts due to incomplete presentation of data.
- •
There is no evidence that pregnancy increases the risk of developing or worsening otosclerosis.
- •
The use of the endoscope in stapes surgery is equally as safe as the use of the microscope.
- •
No prosthesis material is superior to another in stapedotomy regarding hearing outcomes.
