Recent Work on Thyroid Hormones

Recent work on thyroid hormones.

Progress in research frequently awaits the application of new techniques developed in unrelated fields. The biochemistry of the thyroid gland is a particularly good example, for remarkable advances have followed the introduction of paper chromatography and autoradiography with radioactive iodine (131I). Classical methods had previously shown that the circulating form of thyroid hormone was the ...

RECENT WORK Recent Work: Dispositions

Controversy about dispositions ranges over the following four domains: (i) the semantics of disposition ascriptions; (ii) the distinction between dispositional and categorical properties; (iii) the metaphysical status of dispositions, i.e. their fundamentality, naturalness and intrinsicness; and (iv) the various dispositional analyses of philosophical notions like causation, laws, modality, cou...

Clinical Evaluation of Various Thyroid Hormones on Thyroid Function

To clarify the clinical value of serums total triiodothyronine (TT3), total thyroxine (TT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3), and free thyroxine (FT4) and provide a more eligible and economic strategy to assess thyroid function. A total of 2,673 participants (500 patients with hyperthyroidism, 500 patients with hypothyroidism, and 1,673 healthy people) were involved in our study. Serums TT3, TT4, F...

Effects of thyroid hormones on the heart.

Thyroid hormones have a significant impact on heart function, mediated by genomic and non-genomic effects. Consequently, thyroid hormone deficiencies, as well as excesses, are expected to result in profound changes in cardiac function regulation and cardiovascular hemodynamics. Thyroid hormones upregulate the expression of the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-activated ATPase and downregulate the...
