Cyto-Histological Profile of MicroRNAs as Diagnostic Biomarkers in Differentiat...
Matos, ML; Pinto, M; Alves, M; Canberk, S; Gonçalves, A; Bugalho, MJ; Papoila, AL; Soares, PIntroduction: The repertoire of microRNAs (miRNAs) in thyroid carcinomas starts to be elucidated. Among differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTCs), papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most frequent. The assessment of miRNAs expression may contribute to refine the pre-surgical diagnosis in order to obtain a personalized and more effective treatment for patients. Aims: This study aims to evaluate (1) the miRNA...
A Common Variant in the CDK8 Gene Is Associated with Sporadic Pituitary Adenoma...
Gaspar, L; Gonçalves, C; Fonseca, F; Carvalho, D; Cortez, L; Palha, A; Barros, I; Nobre, E; Duarte, J; Amaral, C; Bugalho, MJ; Marques, O; Pereira, BThe majority of pituitary adenomas occur in a sporadic context, and in the absence of known genetic predisposition. Three common variants at the NEBL (rs2359536), PCDH15 (rs10763170) and CDK8 (rs17083838) loci were previously associated with sporadic pituitary adenomas in the Han Chinese population, but these findings have not yet been replicated in any other population. The aim of this case-control study was t...

Santos, AP; Vinagre, J; Soares, P; Claro, I; Sanches, AC; Gomes, L; Fernandes, I; Catarino, AL; Preto, J; Pereira, BD; Marques, AP; Rodrigues, FBackground. The incidence of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs) has been increasing in the last five decades, but there is no large-scale data regarding these tumours in Portugal. We conducted a cross-sectional, multicentric study in main Portuguese centers to evaluate the clinical, pathological, and therapeutic profile of GEP-NENs. Methods. From November, 2012, to July, 2014, data from ...

Marques, P; Chikh, K; Charrié, A; Pina, R; Bugalho, MJ; Lopes, LThyroid-stimulating hormone-receptor autoantibodies normally causes hyperthyroidism. However, they might have blocking activity causing hypothyroidism. A 11-year-old girl followed due to type 1 diabetes mellitus, celiac disease and euthyroid lymphocytic thyroiditis at diagnosis. Two years after the initial evaluation, thyroid-stimulating hormone was suppressed with normal free T4; nine months later, a biochemic...

Lacerda, AJ; Bugalho, MJA hiperplasia supra-renal congénita por defeito da 21-hidroxilase é, entre as doenças metabólicas hereditárias, uma das mais frequentes. A ocorrência da forma clássica é estimada, entre a população branca, em 1/14.500 nados-vivos. A hiperprodução de androgénios condiciona, nos fetos do sexo feminino, ambiguidade sexual podendo resultar num registo incorrecto do sexo. Revêem-se os conceitos básicos de fisiopatol...
