In this article, we summarize the seminal highlights of clinical thyroidology literature published in 2016. The main focus of these articles were thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, cubclinical hypothyroidism in pregnancy, Graves℉ disease in pregnancy, the American Thyroid Association guidelines for adult patients with thyroid nodules and differentiated thyroid cancer, and the American Thyroid Association guidelines for the diagnosis and management of hyperthyroidism and other causes of thyrotoxicosis.

CADTH recommends that Jorveza should be reimbursed by public drug plans for the maintenance of remission in adults with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) if certain conditions are met. Jorveza should only be reimbursed if prescribed by a specialist with experience in the diagnosis and management of EoE, and the cost of Jorveza is reduced. Jorveza should only be covered for adult patients who have a confirmed diagnosis of EoE, in whom treatment with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) did not work, and whose symptoms (dysphagia and pain during swallowing) have resolved after receiving induction treatment with Jorveza.

Background The rapid haemodynamics deterioration and  presence of myocardial ischemia  early  after cardiac surgical operations is a complex life threatening condition  where rapid diagnosis and management is of fundamental importance. Objective: to  analyse the factors associated with mortality of patients with post cardiotomy MI  and  to study the role of emergency coronary angiography in management and outcome . Methods: we retrospectively enrolled  adult patients  diagnosed to have post cardiotomy MI and underwent emergency coronary angiography  at our tertiary care hospital  between January 2016 and August 2019. Results: Sixty one patients from consecutive  1869 adult patients who underwent cardiac surgeries were enrolled in our study.  The studied patients had a mean age of 49 ±16.2 years with a mean BMI of 29.5 ± 6.6 and 65.6% of them were males. As compared to the survivors group, the non-survivors of perioperative MI had significant preoperative CKD , postoperative AKI , longer CPB time , frequent  histories of  previous PCI , previous cardiotomies , pre and postoperative ECMO use , higher median troponin I levels , higher peak and 24 hours mean lactate levels. Regression analysis revealed that re-operation for revascularization  (OR:23 ; 95% CI: 8.27-217.06; p = 0.034) and hyperlactataemia  (OR: 3.21 ; 95% CI:1.14-9.04 ; p = 0.027) were independent factors associated with hospital mortality after perioperative MI . Hospital mortality occurred in ( 25.7% vs 86.7% ,p < 0.001 ) , AKI occurred in ( 37.1% vs 93.3 %,p < 0.001 ) , haemodialysis was used in (28.6 % vs 80%. P = 0.002), mediastinal exploration for bleeding done in (31.4% vs 80%, p = 0.006 ) in PCI and re-operation groups respectively while there were no significant differences regarding gastrointestinal bleeding , cerebral strokes nor intracerebral bleeding . Absence of significant angiographic findings occurred in 18% of patients. Conclusions: Perioperative MI is associated with significant morbidities and hospital mortality . Re-operation for revascularization  and progressive hyperlactataemia are independent predictors of hospital mortality. Emergency coronary angiography is helpful in diagnosis and management of perioperative MI.
