Question: To probe into an new methods preserving parathyroid gland of patients with thyroid carcinoma.', 'Thirty-six patients with thyroid carcinoma that primary treated were random divided into two groups: trial group and control group. Emulsion of activated-carbon particles was injected into the thyroid gland of trial group patients. After thirty minutes, central compartment dissection was performed in the all patients. The black stained tissue in the dissection specimen of trial group was separated. Total lymph node, metastasis lymph node and parathyroid gland in the black stained tissue, and non-black stained tissue in the central compartment dissection specimen of trial group and central compartment dissection specimen of control group were counted respectively.', 'Nineteen and twenty central compartment dissection was performed in trial group and control group respectively. There are 177 lymph nodes included 83 metastasis lymph nodes in the black-stained tissue of central compartment dissection specimen of trial group. No parathyroid gland was found in the black-stained tissue. Nine lymph nodes included 2 metastasis lymph nodes and 7 parathyroid glands were found in the non-black stained tissue of central compartment dissection specimen of trial group. There were 124 lymph nodes included 80 metastasis lymph nodes and 8 parathyroid glands in central compartment dissection specimen of control group. There are statistic difference between the amount of lymph node in black stain tissue and that of control group (t = 0.340, P = 0.003). Rate of staining lymph node were 95.2 percent.

Question: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between serum thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) levels with various clinicopathological conditions in patients with drug eruptions. The value of TARC in diagnosing drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) was also examined.', 'Study participants included 84 patients who presented with generalized eruptions suspected to be drug-related, including DIHS, Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), maculopapular exanthema (MPE), erythema multiforme (EM), erythroderma, and toxicoderma. The correlation coefficients between serum TARC levels and clinical parameters in peripheral blood samples were calculated.', 'Serum TARC levels in patients with DIHS were higher than those found in patients with SJS/TEN, MPE, EM, and toxicoderma. TARC levels had 100% sensitivity and 92.3% specificity in diagnosing DIHS, with a threshold value of 13,900\xa0pg/mL. Serum TARC levels positively correlated with age, white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil count, eosinophil count, monocyte count, atypical lymphocyte (Aty-ly) count, serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels, and creatinine (Cr) levels. It negatively correlated with serum total protein (TP), albumin (Alb), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Among these clinical parameters, blood eosinophil counts were most strongly correlated with serum TARC levels, with a correlation coefficient of 0.53.

Question: Therapeutic intervention during the early stages of an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) might have value in improving clinical outcomes. During the 73-site International Recombinant Activated Factor VII Intracerebral Hemorrhage Trial, CT techniques were used to monitor the change in hematoma volume in response to treatment. The use of CT imaging technology served 3 functions: to provide accurate measurements of the change in hematoma volume, intraventricular volume (IVH), and edema volume; to evaluate the use of CT scans as a predictor of patient outcomes; and to demonstrate that hematoma volume can serve as a surrogate marker for ICH clinical progression.', 'The multicenter clinical trial received institutional review board approval and obtained informed consent from the patient or a legally acceptable representative (waived in a few cases of incapacity, according to local and national regulations). CT scans were used to quantify volumes of hemorrhage and to monitor evolution over a 72-hour period in patients with ICH treated with placebo or 40, 80, or 160 microg/kg of recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa). CT image data were transmitted digitally to an imaging laboratory and analyzed by 2 readers masked to patient and treatment data, by using Analyze software, a fully integrated toolkit for interactive display, processing, and measurement of biomedical image data. The use of this software enabled the evaluation of intraclass variability of CT scan interpretations.', 'Interpretations of ICH and IVH volumes of CT scans in patients treated in this study showed minimal intraclass variability. Variability was greatest for interpretations of edema volume.
