Backgrounds: The widespread intrinsic link between gastrointestinal and endocrine diseases was poorly understood. We aimed to dissect the bidirectional association in the progression of gastrointestinal with endocrine diseases, either the overall, individual, or comorbidities with each other.
Methods: A bidirectional-designed prospective cohort included 481841 and 452858 participants free of gastrointestinal and endocrine diseases at baseline in the UK Biobank. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for incident endocrine diseases according to gastrointestinal disease status or the number of gastrointestinal comorbidities, and vice versa.
Results: Overall gastrointestinal disease was associated with an increased risk of incident endocrine diseases (HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.19-1.25), and conversely, overall endocrine disease also increased the risk of total gastrointestinal diseases (HR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.44-1.53). For specific diseases, extensive bidirectional associations were observed between type 2 diabetes and six gastrointestinal diseases (gastritis and duodenitis, irritable bowel syndrome, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, dyspepsia, duodenal ulcer, and gastric ulcer), thyroid disorders, and five gastrointestinal diseases (gastritis and duodenitis, irritable bowel syndrome, dyspepsia, malabsorption, and ulcerative colitis), hyperparathyroidism and three gastrointestinal diseases (gastritis and duodenitis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and duodenal ulcer), etc. The risk of overall endocrine (HR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.12-1.16) and gastrointestinal diseases (HR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.46-1.55) increased with per-comorbidity increasing. This trend was similarly observed for most individual diseases.
Conclusions: We observed an extensive bidirectional association in overall, specific, and number of comorbidities between gastrointestinal and endocrine diseases.

Purpose: mutations are classically seen in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs), and EGFR-directed inhibitors have changed the therapeutic landscape in patients with -mutated NSCLC. The real-world prevalence of -mutated ovarian cancers has not been previously described. We aim to determine the prevalence of pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in ovarian cancer and describe a case of -mutated metastatic ovarian cancer with a durable response to osimertinib, an EGFR-directed targeted therapy.

Objective: Aim: To find out new objective criteria for laser histological differential diagnosis of thyroid pathology based on the use of a digital method of layer-by-layer polarization-interference mapping of polarization ellipticity maps of microscopic images of native histological sections of thyroid biopsy.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: Four groups of patients were studied: control group 1 - healthy donors (51 patients); study group 2 - patients with nodular goiter (51 patients); study group 3 - patients with autoimmune thyroiditis (51 patients); study group 4 - patients with papillary cancer (51 patients). Methods used: polarization-interference, statistical.

The scope of this study was to conduct an analysis on the effect of the Age-Period-Cohort (APC) on ovarian cancer mortality in the South and Northeast regions of Brazil. The APC models were estimated by Poisson regression through estimable functions in women aged 30 and over residing in the states of the South and Northeast regions. Upon estimating the APC models, a positive gradient was found in mortality rates with advancing age in all locations The South region showed a reduction in the risk of death in the last two periods (RR2010-2014 0.
