متن کاملResistance to thyroid hormone due to defective thyroid receptor alpha
Thyroid hormones act via nuclear receptors (TRα1, TRβ1, TRβ2) with differing tissue distribution; the role of α2 protein, derived from the same gene locus as TRα1, is unclear. Resistance to thyroid hormone alpha (RTHα) is characterised by tissue-specific hypothyroidism associated with near-normal thyroid function tests. Clinical features include dysmorphic facies, skeletal dysplasia (macrocepha...
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...

atrial fibrillation or osteoporosis and makes the illogical extrapolation that a patient given a dose of thyroxine that suppresses or brings the serum thyroxine concentration to higher than the reference range is receiving too much replacement. It is excusable for doctors to believe that if the serum thyroxine concentration is higher than the so-called normal range that the dose of thyroxine sh...
متن کاملeffects of growth hormone replacement therapy on thyroid function tests in growth hormone deficient children
there are numerous, often contradictory reports on the effect of growth hormone (gh) therapy on thyroid function. these reports prompted us to evaluate the impact of gh therapy on thyroid function in previously euthyroid children with gh deficiency. twenty five clinically and biochemically euthyroid children with gh deficiency were studied. a thyroid profile (t4, free t4, t3 and tsh) was perfor...
