Thyroid nodularity--true epidemic or improved diagnostics.
The incidence of thyroid nodules has been rising steadily during the last 30 years, since the introduction of new diagnostic methods such as ultrasonography and computerized tomography, thus posing a real challenge in determining the best approach strategy for treatment of this new 'epidemic'. We analyzed and compared data from several studies showing the prevalence of thyroid nodules on autops...

متن کاملA Comparison of Iran and UK EQ-5D-3L Value Sets Based on Visual Analogue Scale
Background Preference weights for EQ-5D-3L based on visual analogue scale (VAS) has recently been developed in Iran. The aim of the current study was to compare performance of this value set against the UK VAS-based value set. Methods The mean scores for all possible 243 health states were compared using Student t test. Absolute agreement and consistency were investigated using concordance co...
متن کاملEnhancements to the Visual Analogue Scale, VAS, for listening tests
Three methods for perceptual rating of audio stimuli were compared. The Visual Analogue Scale, VAS, was implemented as two computer programs and compared to the VAS on paper. The first program is a straight-forward implementation, the second program introduces the Visual Sort and Rate method, VSR. VSR allows the subject to compare stimuli of similar rating to each other, thus making the orderin...
متن کاملA rare case of medulloblastoma with excessive nodularity: imagistic features
Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant tumor of childhood. Neuroimaging can play a role in the diagnosis of medulloblastoma, however atypical features do exist [2]. We report the case of a 1 year and 10month-old infant diagnosed with a medulloblastoma with what we term “excessive” nodularity based on neuroimaging features and confirmed by neuropathology. CT-scan (CT) and magnetic resonanc...
