1. Tireoide aumentada e nódulos de tireoide podem causar sintomas cervicais?
Existe uma correlação entre o volume da tireoide e o tamanho dos nódulos com sintomas compressivos, mas não existem pontos de corte bem estabelecidos. Apesar disso, é improvável que sintomas cervicais sejam atribuíveis a tireoides com volumes menores que 30 mL, cujo aumento não seja visível ao exame físico ou que não apresentem sinais de compre

2. Diffusion-weighted imaging versus non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis during pregnancy
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of diffusion-weighted imaging compared to non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging in the differential diagnosis of acute appendicitis in pregnant patients. METHODS: A total of 72 pregnant patients with the suspicion of acute appendicitis who underwent magnetic resonance ima

3. Biomarker potential of hsa-miR-145-5p in peripheral whole blood of manic bipolar I patients
Objective: Bipolar I disorder (BD-I) is a type of bipolar spectrum disorder characterized by manic or mixed episodes. Detecting microRNA regulations as epigenetic actors in BD-I is important to elucidate the pathogenesis of the disease and reveal the potential of microRNAs (miRNAs) as biomarkers. Methods: We evaluated the expression profile of six candidate

4. Imaging Studies in Otosclerosis: An Up-to-date Comprehensive Review
Abstract Introduction Otosclerosis is a primary osteodystrophy of the otic capsule, frequently responsible for acquired hearing loss in adults. Although the diagnostic value of imaging investigations in otosclerosis is debatable, they might still be employed with different goals within the context of the disease. Objectives The present paper aims to review

5. Acute bullous hemorrhagic prurigo: a diagnostic challenge,
Abstract Insect bites and bite wounds are quite common and most often have mild repercussions in humans. Statistics on the incidence of accidents caused by insects are not available, and the skin reactions after the bites are not always known. The authors present two cases of patients with hemorrhagic blisters on their hands after tabanidae bites and discuss

6. Cauliflower-like exophytic mass on the skin: polypoid melanoma. Clinical, dermoscopic, and histologic features,
Abstract Polypoid melanoma is a variant of nodular melanoma, whose poor prognosis depends on its thickness and the presence of ulceration at the time of diagnosis. The authors report two cases of polypoid melanoma, presenting as broad, cauliflower-like, polypoid masses. Dermoscopy was characterized by a multicolored pattern, atypical polymorphic vessels, and

7. Diagnosis accuracy of PCA3 level in patients with prostate cancer: a systematic review with meta-analysis
ABSTRACT Background: The diagnostic value and suitability of prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) for the detection of prostate cancer (PCa) have been inconsistent in previous studies. Thus, the aim of the present meta-analysis was performed to systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of PCA3 for PCa. Materials and Methods: A meta-analysis was performed to

8. Calcificações de partes moles: ensaio iconográfico
Abstract Soft-tissue calcifications are extremely common. Because the imaging findings are nonspecific, soft-tissue calcifications are often problematic for radiologists, sometimes prompting unnecessary interventions. In addition, the nomenclature is quite confusing. Classically, soft-tissue calcifications are divided into four categories, by mechanism of fo

9. Can p63 serve as a biomarker for diagnosing giant cell tumor of bone? A systematic review and meta-analysis
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Tumor protein p63 (p63) has been reported to be highly expressed in giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB). Whether p63 can be treated as a diagnostic marker for GCTB remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the applicability of p63 in diagnosing GCTB. DESIGN AND SETTING: Systematic review and meta-analysis carrie

10. Correlates of neuropsychiatric and motor tests with language assessment in patients with Lewy body dementia
Abstract Background Lewy body dementia (LBD) impairs performance in daily activities and affects motor, language and visuospatial tasks. Objective We aimed to correlate neuropsychiatric and motor assessments with language and visual organization tests in LBD. Methods Twenty-two patients with dementia with Lewy bodies and ten patients with Parkinson’s

11. Corrigendum
Objective: Presence of psychotic symptoms seems to be a commonplace in early-onset bipolar disorder (BD). However, few studies have examined their occurrence in adolescent-onset BD. We sought to investigate the frequency of affective and psychotic symptoms observed during the first manic episode in adolescents. Methods: Forty-nine adolescents with bipolar

12. Psychotic and affective symptoms of early-onset bipolar disorder: an observational study of patients in first manic episode
Objective: Presence of psychotic symptoms seems to be a commonplace in early-onset bipolar disorder (BD). However, few studies have examined their occurrence in adolescent-onset BD. We sought to investigate the frequency of affective and psychotic symptoms observed during the first manic episode in adolescents. Methods: Forty-nine adolescents with bipolar
