In conclusion, we recommend near-total thyroidectomy in multinodular goiter instead of total or subtotal thyroidectomy. While near-total thyroidectomy and total thyroidectomy obviate the need for completion thyroidectomy in incidentally found thyroid cancer, and while there is no difference in the rate of recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy between the two methods, near-total thyroidectomy causes a significantly lower rate of hypoparathyroidism compared to total thyroidectomy.

Glutamine reduced colonic damage in TNBS-induced colitis. The mechanism of the protection associated with glutamine was due to antioxidant, antiapoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and HO-1 induction effects.
