Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a basic diagnostic tool for thyroid nodules. However, 15-30% of nodules are cytologically indeterminate. Midkine (MK), a pleiotropic growth factor, is often upregulated in patients with cancers. This study aimed to evaluate the role of MK and its ratios in fine-needle aspirates (FNA) for predicting thyroid...
