| | Correlation between Blood Ethylenethiourea and Thyroid Gland Disorders among Banana Plantation Workers in the Philippines |
| | The urine, blood, and environmental samples were analyzed for the presence of ETU by the Toxicology Laboratory of the Department of Pharmacology, University of the Philippines College of Medicine, using HPLC with an ultraviolet detector. | | | With increasing size of the nodule (> 4 cm), there is a greater chance for the nodule developing into cancer. | | | In the present cross-sectional study, we investigated the possible correlation between the levels of blood ETU and urinary ETU and the incidence of thyroid gland disorders among banana plantation workers in the Philippines. |

| | Do You Need an Endocrinologist? / Thyroid Disease Information Source - Articles/FAQs |
| | Typically, nodules are evaluated using ultrasound, and in some cases, a fine needle biopsy process, to rule out the small chance that the nodule is cancerous. | | | This attitude can be a downside of going to endocrinologists, who are sometimes referred to as the "accountants of medicine," given their passion for the test and numbers and levels. | | | There are good endocrinologists who have excellent patient skills, and who work well in partnership with patients. |

| | "GM Microbes Invade North America" |
| | Sinorhizobium meliloti is a bacterium added to soil or inoculated into seeds to enhance nodule formation and nitrogen fixation in the roots of legumes. | | | Thus, the commercial release of GM Sinorhizobium meliloti has resulted in the establishment of the GM microbe in the soil in millions of acres of cropland, where it can spread antibiotic resistance genes for antibiotics that are extensively in use in medicine and agriculture. | | | The legume symbiont, Sinorhizobium meliloti, is tremendously important for fixing nitrogen from the air into plant roots and the soil. |

| | They are not pinpointing where the problem is. What they're typically doing is removing symptoms, whether it's a papillomatosis condition or a nodule or a polyp, which are benign conditions, or a pre-malignancy. | | | SD is considered hopeless by medicine and by my profession too. | | | Cooper: I came to the conclusion that voice misuse and abuse was an activating factor in causing this pre-malignancy called papillomatosis. |

| | Styes and chalazion |
| | Also for chalazion, some doctors use steroid drops and medicine where quick relief is guaranteed but not in preventing recurrences. | | | Chalazion is a non-infectious swelling occurring in the meibomian gland and present as painless nodule in the eyelids. | | | But in the case of chalazion, if the size is small it wont interfere with the vision except for some irritability but if the size is large, it will affect mostly near vision and eyeball movement. |
