Morphological and Functional Abnormalities of the Thyroid Gland among End Stage Kidney Disease Patients

Aug 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2372-6601.jhor-17-1606
O OsmanCorresponding author Consultant nephrologist, Alqunfudah Hospital, KSA.

Several interactions exist between thyroid and kidney function in many disorders. Many publications explored the relationship between thyroid diseases (TD) and chronic kidney diseases (CKD). However, the morphological thyroid changes in patients with CKD or End Stage Kidney disease (ESKD) were not f…

A Comparative Evaluation of the Role of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) Imaging and Orthopantomography (OPG) in Sinus Augmentation Procedures: An Original Study

Aug 2016 DOI 10.14302/issn.2473-1005.jdoi-16-1167
Abhishek Singh NayyarCorresponding author

Context: The present study was undertaken to do a comparative evaluation of the role of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging and Orthopantomography (OPG) for pre-operative implant planning in combination with sinus grafting procedures in order to assess sinus anatomy and morphology and the e…

Metastatic Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor to the Thyroid

Dec 2015 DOI 10.14302/issn.2574-4496.jtc-15-779
Xiaoqi LinCorresponding author

It is extremely rare that sarcomas metastasize to the thyroid. We report a case of a 49 year old male with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) metastatic to the thyroid that was diagnosed by ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (FNA). The FNA cytology showed numerous loosely cohesive…

Overexpression of Prostate Apoptosis Response Protein-4 In Colon Cancer Cells Can Inhibit Metastasis by Upregulating E-cadherin Expression

May 2015 DOI 10.14302/issn.2471-7061.jcrc-14-574
Rosalyn B. IrbyCorresponding author

Colon cancer has a five-year survival of 64.7%, and about 50,000 people are expected to die from colon cancer this year. Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer have a significantly worse prognosis, a 12.9% five-year survival. This emphasizes the need for strategies to inhibit the growth and meta…

Human Myxomatous Mitral Valves Exhibit Focal Expression of Cartilage-Related Proteins

Jan 2013 DOI 10.14302/issn.2329-9487.jhc-12-102
Carla M. R. LacerdaCorresponding author

Background: Heart valves share developmental signaling pathways with cartilage and bone. While calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) has been associated with valve calcification and stenosis, suggestive of osteogenesis, myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is characterized by net matrix degradation…
