Comparison of different thyroid surgical procedures and their outcomes/complications for benign disease in relation to expertise of the surgeon in a public hospital of a developing country over 2 decades
<p><b><u>Objective</u></b>: To compare the frequency of postoperative complications with thyroid surgical procedures and the expertise of the surgeon.</p> <p><b><u>Design</u></b>: Retrospective cross-sectional study from 1999 to 2018.</p> <p><b><u>Setting:</u></b> A public sector tertiary care teaching hospital.</p> <p><b><u>Participants and methods</u></b>: Patients undergoing thyroid surgery (lobectomy with isthmusectomy, subtotal thyroidectomy (STT), near total thyroidectomy (NTT), or total thyroidectomy (TT)) were included. Expertise level 1, 2 and 3 (L1, L2, L3) of the surgeon was based on years of experience or number of thyroid surgeries to their credit.</p> <p><b><u>Primary and Secondary Outcome Measures:</u></b> Postoperative complications (hypocalcemia, recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) damage, airway obstruction, hemorrhage and mortality) were measured against type of thyroid surgery and expertise of surgeon.</p> <p><b><u>Results:</u></b> 833 thyroid surgeries were performed on 695 (83.43%) females and 138 (16.57%) males. 502 (60.26%) STT, 228 (27.37%) TT, 61 (7.32%) NTT, 42 (5.04%) lobectomies with isthmusectomies were performed, with LI, 2, and 3 surgeons performing 21.25%, 45.74% and 33.01%, respectively. L1, 2 and 3 surgeons caused 49.47%, 33.45% and 17.08% of adverse events respectively. The permanent hypocalcemia, RLN damage and mortality were significantly (p<0.05) more common in surgeries performed by L1 compared with L2 and L3. Transient and permanent hypocalcemia, transient and permanent RLN damage and mortality were significantly (p<0.01) more common for total thyroidectomy compared to subtotal thyroidectomy.</p> <p><b><u>Conclusion:</u></b> Minimizing the occurrence of complications like permanent hypocalcemia, RLN damage and mortality, expertise of the surgeon and anticipated difficulty of the procedure needs to be taken into account while selecting a thyroid procedure.</p> <p><b><u>Keywords:</u></b> Thyroid surgery, Total thyroidectomy, Subtotal thyroidectomy, near total thyroidectomy, Lobectomy with isthmusectomy, hypoparathyroidism, hypocalcemia, recurrent laryngeal nerve, postoperative complications</p>
Data from: Ascertaining gene flow patterns in livestock populations of developing countries: a case study in Burkina Faso goat
BACKGROUND: Introgression of Sahel livestock genes southwards in West Africa may be favoured by human activity and the increase of the duration of the dry seasons since the 1970's. The aim of this study is to assess the gene flow patterns in Burkina Faso goat and to ascertain the most likely factors influencing geographic patterns of genetic variation in the Burkina Faso goat population. RESULTS: A total of 520 goat were sampled in 23 different locations of Burkina Faso and genotyped for a set of 19 microsatellites. Although overall differentiation is poor (FST = 0.067 ± 0.003), the goat population of Burkina Faso is far from being homogeneous. Barrier analysis pointed out the existence of: a) genetic discontinuities in the Central and Southeast Burkina Faso; and b) genetic differences within the goat sampled in the Sahel or the Sudan areas of Burkina Faso. Principal component analysis and admixture proportion scores were computed for each population sampled and used to construct interpolation maps. Furthermore, Population Graph analysis revealed that the Sahel and the Sudan environmental areas of Burkina Faso were connected through a significant number of extended edges, which would be consistent with the hypothesis of long-distance dispersal. Genetic variation of Burkina Faso goat followed a geographic-related pattern. This pattern of variation is likely to be related to the presence of vectors of African animal trypanosomosis. Partial Mantel test identified the present Northern limit of trypanosome vectors as the most significant landscape boundary influencing the genetic variability of Burkina Faso goat (p = 0.008). The contribution of Sahel goat genes to the goat populations in the Northern and Eastern parts of the Sudan-Sahel area of Burkina Faso was substantial. The presence of perennial streams explains the existence of trypanosome vectors. The South half of the Nakambé river (Southern Ouagadougou) and the Mouhoun river loop determined, respectively, the Eastern and Northern limits for the expansion of Sahelian goat genes. Furthermore, results from partial Mantel test suggest that the introgression of Sahelian goat genes into Djallonké goat using human-influenced genetic corridors has a limited influence when compared to the biological boundary defined by the northern limits for the distribution of the tsetse fly. However, the genetic differences found between the goat sampled in Bobo Dioulasso and the other populations located in the Sudan area of Burkina Faso may be explained by the broad goat trade favoured by the main road of the country. CONCLUSIONS: The current analysis clearly suggests that genetic variation in Burkina Faso goat: a) follows a North to South clinal; and b) is affected by the distribution of the tsetse fly that imposes a limit to the Sahelian goat expansion due to their trypanosusceptibility. Here we show how extensive surveys on livestock populations can be useful to indirectly assess the consequences of climate change and human action in developing countries.
