The authors present a clinical case of a female 54-year-old patient who underwent total thyroidectomy for a non-toxic multinodular goiter with pathological diagnosis of incidental, bifocal, classic papillary microcarcinoma, with tall cell focus, at that time classified as pT3(m); R0, AJCC/TM...
This paper examines the various stages of the teaching-learning lifecycle, from initial planning to assessment and continuous refinement. Each phase - planning, creation of educational content, tutoring, assessment, and iteration - is discussed in the context of the increasing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI), emphasizing how it has been used to automate and streamline formerly manual pedagogical tasks.

Coastal habitats are increasingly threatened by multiple anthropogenic-related activities, which include ocean warming and loss of structural habitat complexity. These two pressures have the potential to severely affect the structure and function of marine biodiversity. Early life stages of many fish species recruit to coastal habitats at the end of their pelagic phase, benefiting from access to food, shelter a...
Background: Chronic cough is a common respiratory symptom with an impact on daily activities and quality of life. Global prevalence data are scarce and derive mainly from European and Asian countries and studies with outcomes other than chronic cough. In this study, we aimed to estimate the prevalence of chronic cough across a large number of study sites as well as to identify its main risk factors using a stan...
