RESUMO

The skeleton plays a fundamental role in the maintenance of organ function and daily activities. The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) family is a group of polypeptide substances with a pronounced role in osteoblast differentiation, bone development, and metabolism. Disturbance of the IGFs and the IGF signaling pathway is inextricably linked with assorted developmental defects, growth irregularities, and jeopardized skeletal structure. Recent findings have illustrated the significance of the action of the IGF signaling pathway via growth factors and receptors and its interactions with dissimilar signaling pathways (Wnt/ß-catenin, BMP, TGF-ß, and Hh/PTH signaling pathways) in promoting the growth, survival, and differentiation of osteoblasts. IGF signaling also exhibits profound influences on cartilage and bone development and skeletal homeostasis via versatile cell-cell interactions in an autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine manner systemically and locally. Our review summarizes the role and regulatory function as well as a potentially integrated gene network of the IGF signaling pathway with other signaling pathways in bone and cartilage development and skeletal homeostasis, which in turn provides an enlightening insight into visualizing bright molecular targets to be eligible for designing effective drugs to handle bone diseases and maladies, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and dwarfism.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND Thyroid nodule prevalence reaches 65% in the general population. Hence, appropriate ultrasonic examination is key in disease monitoring and management. We investigated the American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR-TIRADS) score for diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules and pathological types. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective study was conducted. According to ultrasound images, ultrasonic characteristics of benign and malignant thyroid nodules and different pathological types were analyzed using ACR-TIRADS score, and diagnostic value was determined. AUCs were compared for tumor diagnosis and differentiation. RESULTS Overall, 1675 thyroid nodules from 1614 patients were included. AUC value of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) diagnosed with ACR-TIRADS was highest (0.955 [95% CI=0.946-0.965]), while that of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) was lowest (0.877 [95% CI=0.843-0.912]). FTC had the highest sensitivity (95.1%) and lowest specificity (64.8%). When the cut-off value was 5.5 points, accuracy of diagnosing PTC and anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) was highest, 80.5% and 78.7% respectively. Comparison of the multi-index prediction model constructed by multivariable logistic regression analysis and prediction model constructed by ACR-TIRADS score showed, when evaluating PTC and ATC, the multi-index model was better: AUCs of PTC were 0.966 vs 0.955, and AUCs of ATC were 0.982 vs 0.952, respectively, (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS ACR-TIRADS score-based ultrasound examination of thyroid nodules aids diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. TIRADS criteria favor diagnosis of PTC (and ATC) over FTC. ACR-TIRADS score can help clinicians diagnose thyroid nodules quickly and earlier, exhibits good clinical value, and can prevent missed diagnoses.
