To correlate cytological finding with clinical presentation and antithyroglobulin antibodies

Hypothyroidism and antithyroglobulin and antithyroperoxidase antibodies in

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...

Antithyroglobulin antibodies in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma: methods of detection, interference with serum thyroglobulin measurement and clinical significance.

Antithyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb) were measured using a chemiluminescent immunoassay (ICMA) and an agglutination test. TgAb laboratory and clinical interference with Tg measurements were assessed. The course of TgAb concentration and disease status were compared during 3 years after initial treatment. The agglutination test failed to detect all titers < 10 IU/mL (ICMA). Interference from TgAb...

411 The Classification of Allergic Rhinitis and Its Cytological Correlate

Di Genova, Genoa, Italy. Background: The airways and the upper digestive tract have a common embrional origin, and in sensitized subjects they can respond to allergens with an immediate reaction (asthma, rhinitis or oral allergy syndrome). We investigated the possible functional connection between respiratory tract and upper digestive tract by means of specific oral allergen challenges. Methods...
