In men, the mean age at diagnosis of papillary TC was 46.98 ± 15.4 years, while in female patients, it was 39.02 ± 12.8 years (p-value = 0.0001). We did not find a trend toward smaller tumours in the more recent years in comparison to the early years (r = -0.083, p-value = 0.168). Conclusions TC is diagnosed at a younger age and larger sizes in S…[Read more]

BACKGROUND Improving the speed of systematic review (SR) development is key to supporting evidence-based medicine. Machine learning tools which semi-automate citation screening might improve efficiency. Few studies have assessed use of screening prioritization functionality or compared two tools head to head. In this project, we compared…[Read more]

The association between folic acid supplementation and birth defects other than neural tube defects remains unclear.

Mixed corticomedullary tumor is an adrenal tumor intermixed with cortical and medullary cells. It is extremely rare with unclear tumorigenesis. We reported a 32-year-old female, manifested with typical Cushing’s syndrome and hypertension, to be diagnosed with right huge adrenal mixed corticomedullary tumor (8.8 cm). Right adrenalectomy was done to…[Read more]
