Diagnostic performance of HMGA2 gene expression for differentiation of malignant thyroid nodules: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

abstract：PURPOSE:We compared the effectiveness of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and radioiodine (RAI) to treat patients carrying toxic thyroid nodule (TTN). Normalization of serum thyrotropin (TSH) 1 year after treatment was the primary end-point; concurrent changes in nodules' volume and scintigraphic pattern were a...
