Biomarker Assessment in Hospital Admissions

Blood samples were obtained at the time of hospital admission. Complete blood counts were performed utilizing a Sysmex XE‐5000 analyzer (Sysmex). Plasma BNP was measured with the AIA‐2000 enzymatic immunoassay analyzer (TOSOH). Other biomarkers were measured using a LABOSPECT 008 autoanalyzer (Hitachi Co.). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula (Matsuo et al., 2009 (link)). Echocardiographic examination was performed by an experienced sonographer using Vivid E9 with XD clear (GE Healthcare). The images were recorded in a console and analyzed offline. Left ventricular ejection fraction was calculated using the modified Simpson's rule.

US was performed using Logiq E9 with XDclear (GE Healthcare, Tokyo, Japan) and/or Aplio500 (Toshiba Medical Systems, Tokyo, Japan). Both systems were equipped with broadband linear phased‐array transducers that were adapted for harmonic imaging. Contrast‐enhanced scanning was performed with the amplitude modulation method (Logiq E9) or pulse subtraction method (Aplio500) using mechanical index (MI) of 0.2–0.25 for a single focus zone at a depth of 10–50 mm from the surface.

Thyroid Lobe Volumetric Measurements

There were 22 patients who also underwent thyroid ultrasonography within 3 mo of thyroid scintigraphy. Thyroid ultrasonography was performed using either the Philips EPIQ 7G or the GE Healthcare XDclear real-time ultrasound scanner with highresolution 6-to 15-MHz linear array transducers. Each thyroid lobe was scanned in both transverse and longitudinal planes. The maximum length, width, and depth of each thyroid lobe were measured. The volume of each thyroid lobe was calculated with the standard formula for ellipsoid volumes: volume (mL) 5 p/6 3 length (cm) 3 width (cm) 3 depth (cm).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
