Evaluation of three inflammation-associated blood indices for predicting malignancy in thyroid nodules

Comment on: Evaluation of three inflammationassociated blood indices for predicting malignancy in thyroid nodules

“…We read with great interest the article by Çatak and cols. entitled “Evaluation of three inflammation-associated blood indices for predicting malignancy in thyroid nodules” ( 1 ) . The authors should be commended for their comparative evaluation of systemic inflammatory indices, including the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV).…”

Response to the letter to the editor: Evaluation of three inflammation-associated blood indices for predicting malignancy in thyroid nodules

“…As correctly pointed out, regression-based models and receiver operating characteristic analyses are valuable tools for evaluating independent prognostic performance. However, we would like to clarify that the primary aim of our study was to investigate the diagnostic utility of systemic inflammatory indices in differentiating benign from malignant thyroid nodules, rather than their prognostic significance within malignant cases ( 2 ) .…”

Pan-immune inflammation value and system inflammation response index associated with prolonged hospital stay of thyroid nodule patients undergoing ultrasound-guided microwave ablation, both aged ≤55 years and > 55 years

“…Pan-immune inflammation value (PIV), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and system inflammation response index (SIRI) are several comprehensive immune-inflammation indices calculated based on several blood cell count indicators ( 23 – 26 ). At present, there are few studies on the relationship between PIV, SII and SIRI and the prolonged hospital stay of patients with thyroid nodules undergoing ultrasound-guided microwave ablation ( 27 , 28 ). Given the differences in hospital stay for patients with thyroid nodules undergoing this surgery and the close relationship between systemic inflammation and the prognosis of many diseases, it is of great significance to explore the relationship between these inflammatory indicators and prolonged hospital stay.…”
