Article Abstract
Background: with the requirement of aggressive follow-up in patients with biochemically incomplete response in patients of papillary ca. thyroid with neck node, a predictor for clinical response would be of great help for better treatment and follow-up planning.
Aim: To determine the utility of lymph-node ratio (central and lateral) as predictors for clinical response post total thyroidectomy and neck dissection.
Materials And Methods: 51 patients of papillary carcinoma thyroid with neck node were treated with surgery and RAI as per ATA guidelines and were analyzed for a median of 3 years. (Retrospective cohort analysis).
Results: We did response evaluation, correlated clinical response with lymph-node ratios. We found a statistically significant relationship of lymph-node ratio with around a sensitivity and specificity of approximately 90% in predicting the biochemically incomplete response.
Conclusion: we conclude that lateral and central compartment ratios can be used in predicting the occurrence of biochemically incomplete response.

Embryo transfer (ET) is a valuable reproductive technology in pigs, albeit its efficiency remains significantly lower than that of natural mating or artificial insemination (AI), owing to high embryonic death rates. Critical for embryo survival and pregnancy success is the placenta, which supports conceptus development through nutrient exchange, hormone production, and immune modulation. Alterations in placental development and function may therefore underlie the reduced efficiency of ET.

In many countries little is known about the attitudes and ethical beliefs of practicing psychiatrists towards the use of coercive practices. This is true as regards Russia where coercion was used for political purposes during the Soviet period. However, substantial changes have occurred in the psychiatric system in recent decades with a focus on patients' rights and the idea of consent.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is more frequently diagnosed in boys than in girls, possibly due to gender-based differences in symptom presentation or referral patterns. This study investigates gender-related variations in symptom severity and clinical presentation among preschool children referred for suspected ASD.
Methods: This study included 125 children (boys: n=103; girls: n=22) aged 2-5 years suspected of having ASD.

Background: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) may experience epilepsy and challenges with movement, posture, cognition, and musculoskeletal development, which can impact their quality of life (QOL). In this study, we investigated the relationship between demographic and clinical variables as well as QOL in children with spastic CP.
Methods: Children aged 6 to 12 years with CP who were followed-up at our tertiary center were included in this cross-sectional study, regardless of the cause.
