✦ Synopsis


A stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed in 27 cases of papillary carcinoma thyroid (PC), 20 follicular neoplasms (FN), 30 cases of Grave's disease (GD), and 40 cases of colloid adenomatous goitre (CAG). The three most important variables in predicting PC were papillary clusters, dense cytoplasm, and intranuclear cytoplasmic inclusions, whereas the predictors of FN were high cellularity combined with a prominent acinar pattern. A few cases of GD and CAGshowed a cytologic overlap with PCand FN, respectively. Regression analysis established high cellularity, Jre flare appearance, and epitheloid granulomas as reliable predictors of GO, whereas abundant colloid with or without foam cells and follicles associated with colloid (FAC) were important variables in

Novel methodology is implemented to assess the predictive power of covariate information associated with sequential binary events. Logistic models are first fitted on the basis of a subset of the observations and then evaluated sequentially on the rest. The probabilistic forecasts are compared to th
