This study tested whether spraying a blue dye called methylene blue onto tissues during thyroid surgery helps surgeons better see and protect the nerve that controls voice and the glands that regulate calcium. 136 adults with benign thyroid nodules took part. The goal was to redu…

This study investigates whether measuring ionized calcium levels before, during, and after total thyroidectomy can predict which patients will develop low calcium levels (hypocalcemia) after surgery. Researchers will track calcium and parathyroid hormone levels in 327 adults unde…
