background: the influence of hashimoto’s thyroiditis (ht) with subclinical hypothyroidism or euthyroid status on the alteration of glucagon-like peptide (glp)-1 and glp-2 levels remains uncertain. materials and methods: twenty-four untreated ht patients with subclinical hypothyroidism, 24 euthyroid ht patients, and 24 age- and gender-matched controls were enrolled in the study. the levels of gl...

Abstract Background Hypothyroidism usually appears in the second decade of life and is thought to be associated with iron overload in patients with thalassemia major. This study aimed to evaluate thyroid dysfunctions in patients with beta-thalassemia major. Materials and Methods This research is a descriptive – cross sectional study, carried out in 2009 to assess thyroid function in 100 p...

Abstract Introduction Major ß Thalassemia represents a group of recessively inherited hemoglobin disorder, which is characterized by reduced synthesis of globins chains. Frequent blood transfusions can lead to iron overload, which may result in several endocrine complication especially in the absence of adequate chelating therapy. The objective of this study were to determine the prevalence of...

Asprosin was a novel adipokine that released by white adipose tissue. It activated fasting and attracted to the liver, which allowed liver rapidly release glucose into bloodstream. White tissue source of asprosin. When people go on fast, their blood sugar levels drop, causes hormone asprosin rise. does this binding G-protein-coupled receptor in known as OR4M1, turn activates cascade involves G ...

background thyroid hormones play an important role in lipid metabolism. overt hypothyroidism is known to be associated with increased lipid profiles, but the effect of subclinical hypothyroidism (sch) on lipid profile remains controversial. objectives the aim of this study was to assess the association between thyroid disorders and serum lipid levels. materials and methods the present study was...

Thyroid ectopia is a dysgenesis of thyroid gland and Lingual position represents the most frequent ectopic location accounting up to 90% of ectopic cases. Hypothyroidism is commonly present because of absence of a normal thyroid gland in most instances. Primary hypothyroidism in juvenile population generally leads to retardation of linear growth and delay or even arrested puberty. We present a ...

  Introduction: Radioiodine (131I) is an effective and inexpensive alternative to surgery in the treatment of thyroid hyperfunction. The debate today concerns the maximum and minimum ablative doses, and factors leading to hypothyroidism. Patients & Method: 1035 hyperthyroid patients treated with weight-adjusted ablative doses of 131I were retrospectively assessed for ...
