Objectives: Prolactin (PRL) normalization after 3 months of Cabergoline (CAB) treatment are useful predictors of responsiveness in patients with prolactinoma. However, differences within the PRL normalization cut-off value have not been identified.Methods: We reviewed the medical records of patients with prolactinomas who were treated with CAB as a primary drug at Severance Hospital. We included patients who had a full dataset of pituitary hormone assays...

Objective: Improved molecular testing for common somatic mutations and the identification of mRNA and microRNA expression classifiers are promising approaches for the diagnosis of thyroid nodules. However, there is a need to improve the diagnostic accuracy of such tests in identifying thyroid cancer. Recent findings have revealed a crucial role of lncRNAs in gene modulation. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of selected lncRNAs from The Atlas of Noncoding RNAs in...
