Abstract
Objective: A low-iodine diet (LID) of <50μ iodine/day is recommended as preparation for radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). The 24-h urinary iodine excretion (UIE) is utilized to evaluate the iodine-depleted status. The aim of this study was to test the association between UIE and progression-free survival (PFS). Patients and methods: In total, 70 patients with intermediate- or high-risk DTC, post-total thyroidectomy, adhered to 2 weeks of LID and had UIE measured before RAI therapy. A Cox regression model was performed to study the contribution of UIE to PFS. Results: The study group consisted of 68% (48/70) of women, aged 41.5 [IQR 31.0, 54.0] years, with tumor size 2.8 [IQR 1.8–4.5] cm, and presence of distant metastases in 22.9% (16/70) of patients. Patients were treated with 1–5 RAI dosages with the median cumulative activity of 150 [IQR 102–314] mCi (5.5 [IQR 3.8–11.6] GBq). During the follow-up of 3.7 [IQR 1.5–6.5] years, 21.4% (15/70) of patients had disease progression. The risk of progression was significantly higher in patients with UIE ≥200 µg/day at the time of RAI administration than in those with UIE <200 µg/day (HR 3.35, 95% CI 1.09–10.34, and p = 0.02). However, the multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis adjusted for age, tumor size, and presence of distant metastases suggested that only distant metastases were independently significantly associated with the risk of progression (HR 5.80 (1.17–28.67), p = 0.03). Conclusions: Although UIE ≥200 µg/day might be associated with worse PFS in RAI-treated DTC patients, the presence of distant metastases is a strong independent predictor of progression. Less stringent LID might be sufficient to achieve a UIE of <200 µg/day.

Subtle Myocardial Dysfunction and Fibrosis in Children with Rheumatic Heart Disease: Insight from 3D Echocardiography, 3D Speckle Tracking and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Abstract
Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries, so early diagnosis and treatment can reduce morbidity and mortality resulting from subsequent valvular damage. The aim of this study was to detect subtle myocardial dysfunction among children with RHD with preserved left ventricular systolic function. This is a cross-sectional case-control study that was conducted on 30 children with RHD (who had valvular affection of any degree and were not in activity) compared to 23 healthy children. After history taking and cardiac examination, 2D echocardiography, tissue Doppler imaging, 3D-echocardiography and 3D speckle tracking echocardiography were done to both groups, whereas cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was done only to the patient group. The 3D-derived left ventricular end-diastolic volume and sphericity index among patients were significantly increased when compared to controls [131.5 (101.5 to 173.7) vs. 69 (58 to 92), P = 0.001, and 0.46 (0.36 to 0.59) vs. 0.33 (0.29 to 0.38), P = 0.001, respectively]. The 3D-derived ejection fraction and longitudinal strain did not differ significantly among both groups. The 3D-derived global circumferential strain was higher in patients when compared to controls [- 14 (- 16 to - 10) vs. - 11(- 13 to - 10), P = 0.04]. None of the examined patients demonstrated late enhancement myocardial fibrosis. In children with RHD and preserved systolic function, subtle systolic dysfunction could not be detected using conventional and novel non-conventional methods. This may indicate that the myocardial affection during the acute stage of rheumatic carditis is minimal with almost complete resolution.

Abstract
The relationship between myocardial iron load and eccentric myocardial remodeling remains an under-investigated area; it was thought that remodeling is rather linked to fibrosis. This study aims to determine whether or not measures of remodeling can be used as predictors of myocardial iron. For this purpose, 60 patients with thalassemia were studied with 3D echocardiography and myocardial relaxometry (T2*) by Cardiac MRI. 3D derived sphericity index was significantly higher in patients with myocardial iron load. It was correlated with T2* with a 100% sensitivity and specificity (cut-off value of 0.34) to discriminate between patients with and without myocardial iron overload.
