Poor prognostic factors such as multifocality, number of metastatic lymph nodes (p=0.04), and extrathyroidal extension were more common in patients with cancer in the pathology specimen who were in the non-HT group.

Our study showed that the patients admitted to our department more than 48 hours from the injury were more than 4 times likely to develop a complication that would require additional treatment. In other words, of our 91 patients, those admitted to our department in the first 48 hours from the injury had a more than 4 times lower rate of complications, likely due to early recognition of the injury with early intravenous antibiotic and corticosteroid administration, multidisciplinary treatment, and early recognition of candidates for emergency and early surgical treatment.

The importance of this topic lies in the fact that one third of the world's population is infected with Mycobacterium (M.) tuberculosis. The majority of infected individuals are LTBI cases which make a reservoir for future active tuberculosis (TB) patients. The gold standard for LTBI detection is still undetermined and this is due to the effect of various confounding factors on existing diagnostic tests. Until a decade or so ago, throughout the last century, tuberculin skin test (TST) was the only diagnostic test for LTBI. Due to scientific advances, new in vitro assays, interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs) were discovered recently. The sensitivities of IGRAs are a bit better than those of TST, while great progress has been made in increasing the specificity of IGRA relative to TST. Nevertheless, in the diagnosis of LTBI in children, TST still has some advantages. However, generations of IGRAs have brought many diagnostic advantages that are emphasized in this review. In a difficult procedure of diagnosing LTBI in children, performance of IGRA could be the key factor in making decision whether to use preventive therapy or not.","PeriodicalId":7072,"journal":{"name":"Acta clinica Croatica","volume":"62 3","pages":"527-538"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11414011/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142278698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The QoR-40 and Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaires were administered to patients undergoing general anesthesia for elective surgery on the day before surgery and on postoperative day 3. The quality of recovery was also assessed with visual analog scale (VAS) 0-100. Of 192 enrolled patients, 162 completed the study protocol. Convergent validity assessed by Pearson correlation (r) between the QoR-40 and VAS scores was 0.68 (p<0.001).
