Diagnostic value of modified systemic inflammation score for prediction of malignancy in patients with indeterminate thyroid nodules

Hakan Atas et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the diagnostic value of preoperative modified systemic inflammation score in predicting the malignancy of thyroid nodules, showing that patients with mSIS 1 or 2 had an increased risk of malignancy and should undergo appropriate surgical treatment promptly.

Re-appraising the role of lymph node status in predicting survival in resected distal cholangiocarcinoma-A meta-analysis and systematic review

Ken Min Chin et al.

Summary: This study aims to confirm the prognostic value of lymph node ratio in patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma undergoing curative surgery, with 0.2 identified as the optimal LNR cut-off for poorer overall survival. There is ongoing debate in the literature regarding the prognostic significance of differing positive lymph node count and total lymph node count cut-offs, with TLNC of 10-13 widely reported to ensure improved long term outcomes.
