Serum Thyroxine (t4) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (tsh) Levels in Cord Blood of Newborns in Lahore
Objective: The primary aim of this study was the early detection and treatment of hypothyroidism in neonates. This paper describes the determination of cord blood serum T4 and TSH levels, their mean levels, reference ranges and interrelationship. Design: Retrospective analysis of serum T4 and TSH levels in 1153 cord blood samples collected and analyzed during July 1998 to June 2000. Setting: Ce...
متن کاملTHYROID FUNCTION TESTS Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH): The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) assay measures the concentration of thyroid stimulating hormone in the serum. TSH assays
The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) assay measures the concentration of thyroid stimulating hormone in the serum. TSH assays have been classified by "generation" based on the functional sensitivity of the assay, i.e., the lowest concentration at which the assay is able to maintain an inter-assay precision, expressed in terms of percent coefficient of variation (%CV), of 20% or less. Virtually...
متن کاملSerum Lipid Transfer Proteins in Hypothyreotic Patients Are Inversely Correlated with Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Levels
BACKGROUND Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity is often decreased in patients with hypothyroidism, whereas less is known about the phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP). We aimed to evaluate simultaneously serum CETP and PLTP activity in patients diagnosed with hypothyroidism. MATERIAL AND METHODS The selection criteria for control group members (without thyroid dysfunction...

background: the physiological changes in thyroid gland during pregnancy have been suggested as one of the pathophysiologic causes of preeclampsia. objective: the aim of this study was comparison of serum levels of tri?iodothyronine (t3), thyroxine (t4), and thyroid?stimulating hormone (tsh) in preeclampsia and normal pregnancy. materials and methods: in this case?control study, 40 normal pregna...
متن کاملUsing Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Levels in Cord Blood to Assess the Iodine Status of Neonates
Neonatal Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) level in blood is one of the indicators recommended for assessing iodine deficiency control programs in a population. This study evaluates the TSH level in cord blood as a way of assessing the iodine status of neonates in the National Capital District, PNG. Assay of TSH in 150 cord sera was by enzyme immunoassay (EIA 96 Microwell plates) using the sens...
