This project aims to investigate the physiopathological mechanisms of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2). The most important and predominant clinical manifestation of patients with MEN2 is MTC. It is possible that the clinical peculiarities of MTC find molecular and immunological explanations in the peculiar composition of the imm…
The care of patients with oncological emergencies requires rapid and coordinated decisions among various healthcare professionals, with a particular emphasis on the involvement of emergency and intensive care physicians. However, differences in training and clinical approaches between these two groups of professionals can lead to discrepancies in decision-making, especially in critical si…
This project is linked to the ongoing thematic project 2021/02752-6, which aims to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2). MEN2 is a genetic disease with autosomal dominant inheritance characterized by associations of tumours of endocrine origin. MTC arises from calcitonin-producing thy…
Oncological emergencies (EOs) are acute conditions caused by the tumor itself or its treatment and require immediate intervention due to the risk of life-threatening or severe permanent damage to the patient. This project aims to describe the epidemiological profile of EOs in Brazil from 2008 to 2023. Considering the context of population aging and changes in the country's epidemiological…

The medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) may be associated with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) when it results from germline mutations in the RET proto-oncogene. Our hypothesis is that the geographic spread of the pathogenic variants V804L and V804M in the RET gene throughout the Brazilian territory may be attributed to a founder effect. The aim of our project is to describe the …
Chronic Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) constitute illnesses with multiple causes and risk factors, characterized by a prolonged course, functional impairment, and diminished quality of life in individuals. In this context, there is evidence that systemic inflammatory markers, such as IL-6 and TNF-alpha, are associated with this low-grade and chronic inflammatory state, also known as "in…
This study is linked to the ongoing Thematic Project (2021/02752-6), directly contributing to Subproject 5 of this Thematic Project. Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2 (MEN2) is an autosomal dominant genetic syndrome characterized by associations of endocrine-origin tumors and classified into subtypes MEN2A and MEN2B based on clinical manifestations. The most important and predominant cl…
