By a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate clinically relevant effects of selenium supplementation in patients with chronic autoimmune thyroiditis. Controlled trials in adults (≥18 years) with autoimmune thyroiditis, comparing selenium with or without levothyroxine substitution, versus placebo and/or levothyroxine substitution, were eligible for inclusion. Identified outcomes were ...

abstract objective: thyroid dysfunction complicates the metabolic derangement observed in diabetes mellitus (dm). it is necessary to recognize and treat it, when present, in order to achieve stability of metabolic control in these patients. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dm on thyroid hormone levels and other biochemical variables. materials and methods: to determine the...

INTRODUCTION Non-convulsive status epilepticus is a form of epileptic seizure that occurs without convulsions. Recent reviews suggest that the diagnosis of non-convulsive status epilepticus remains difficult. Here, we report the case of a patient with thyroid-stimulating hormone elevation misdiagnosed as subclinical hypothyroidism following non-convulsive status epilepticus. CASE PRESENTATION...

Stunting results in generational loss due to decreased ability work productivity and IQ. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) plays an important role the growth process, chronic hormone deficiency conditions will spur incidence of stunting. The purpose study was determine effect supplementary food formula substitution sea urchin gonads (Diadema Setosum) on hormone, height weight stunted toddlers S...

The effect of graded exercise on the secretion of cortisol, testosterone, prolactin, growth hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is reported. While cortisol, prolactin, growth hormone and testosterone rise during the period of exercise, a rise in luteinizing hormone becomes evident only after rest. Levels of FSH and TSH remained ...

Rabbits were immunized with bovine thyroid-stimulating hormone (bTSH), bovine Inteinizing hormone (bLH), and their subunits. In two immunization experiments, thyroid-stimulating activity was found in the serum of 6 out of 12 rabbits immunized with bTSHbeta subunits. The thyroid-stimulating activity in the anti-bTSHbeta sera was greater at 2 h than at 8, was eluted with the globulin fraction fro...

A thyroid disease is a medical condition impairing the function of the thyroid. The thyroid hormones act on nearly every cell in the body. Imbalance in production of thyroid hormones arises from dysfunction of the thyroid gland itself, the pituitary gland, which produces thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), or the hypothalamus, which regulates the pituitary gland via thyrotropin-releasing hormone...
