RESUMO

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare patients' pain and satisfaction of fine needle aspiration (FNA) and core needle biopsy (CNB) for a thyroid nodule. METHODS: We consecutively enrolled patients with thyroid nodules who underwent ultrasound-guided FNA or CNB in our institution. The patients answered a questionnaire about pain scores during the procedure, immediately after the procedure and 20 min after the procedure, and any complication after the biopsy. Through a phone interview which was conducted 2 weeks after the procedure, a researcher asked the patients about residual pain and overall subjective satisfaction score about the procedures. Patients were also asked to report any complication or complaint after the procedures on the phone interview. RESULTS: The 167 patients who had undergone thyroid FNA (n = 87) or CNB (n = 80) were included. The pain scores were not significantly different between the two groups during the procedure and after the procedure. Overall satisfaction scores after 2 weeks were not different, either. There was no acute or delayed major complication in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: Differences regarding patients' pain and satisfaction scores between CNB and FNA were not demonstrated.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Abdominal obesity is considered to be a risk factor for mortality. However, recent studies indicate that overweight may be negatively associated with mortality ("obesity paradox"). The relationships between mortality and various obesity markers in an elderly Asian cohort were evaluated. METHODS: Subjects of the Korean Longitudinal Study on Health and Aging (KLoSHA) (n = 1000, age ≥65 years) were included. The visceral fat area (VFA) and subcutaneous fat area (SFA) were measured using computed tomography. RESULTS: A total of 222 deaths occurred during the 6-year follow-up (median = 5.2 [range 0.1-6.3] years). Body mass index (BMI), VFA, SFA, and total fat mass were negatively associated with all-cause mortality in the univariable analyses (hazard ratio [HR] 0.67 per 1 SD [95% CI 0.57-0.77], 0.66 [0.55-0.79], 0.73 [0.61-0.86], and 0.74 [0.63-0.87], respectively). BMI and VFA were significantly associated with all-cause mortality in the multivariable analyses (HR 0.85 per 1 SD [95% CI 0.73-0.99] and 0.64 [0.47-0.87], respectively). When stratified by quartiles, the HR associated with VFA was the lowest in the third quartile. CONCLUSIONS: In this observational study with a short follow-up of elderly Asian people, higher amounts of visceral fat, a marker for central obesity, were associated with decreased all-cause mortality.
