to PEs were then utilized to investigate the possible effects of melt shear viscosities of PEs upon the deformation behavior of MPA during the formation of parisons before blow-molding, and upon the morphology, barrier and impact properties of PE/MPA blends.
About thyroid surgery. Thyroid nodules can be removed surgically with a lobectomy or a total thyroidectomy. In a lobectomy, the surgeon removes only the section â called a lobe â that contains the lump. In a total thyroidectomy, the surgeon removes the entire thyroid.
Causes. Nodules can be caused by a simple overgrowth of normal thyroid tissue, fluid-filled cysts, inflammation (thyroiditis), or a tumor (either benign or cancerous). Most nodules were surgically removed until the 1980s.
