This study was designed to determine the effect of increase hyperthyrodisim on some hormones (Triiodothyronine, thyroxin, thyroid stimulating hormone) and biochemical parameters (creatinine, magnesium) 58 sample used in this at age (25-40 years), where samples were divided into two groups a rate 29 per group. The totals as follows: control group, group patients. It measured hormone Triiodothyro...

Two children developed papillary thyroid carcinoma after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) probably due to radiotherapy during remission and pretransplantation conditioning. Establishing a relationship between the cellular thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) effect and development of carcinoma in cases with high serum TSH concentrations is difficult. After BMT, patients should be regul...

BackgroundChildhood obesity has become a global epidemic. In the recent studies has reported risk of thyroid dysfunction due to obesity. Therefore, this study intends to compare the relative frequency of thyroid function disorders in obese and overweight children with non-obese children.Materials and MethodsThis case-control study during 2015 to 2016 in Birjand, Iran was done on 137 children an...

The subunits, cy and /3, of human thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary have been obtained by the same procedures utilized for the preparation of bovine TSH subunits, namely, dissociation in 1 M propionic acid and separation by gel filtration. The amino acid composition of human TSH-(r indicates that this subunit is identical or nearly so with the CY subunits of human luteinizing...

Studies were conducted to determine whether thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; thyrotropin), a hormone known to increase cytosol concentrations of cyclic AMP, also stimulates the formation of inositol phosphates in thyroid cells. TSH and noradrenaline both stimulated [3H]inositol phosphate formation in a concentration-dependent manner in the rat thyroid cell line, FRTL-5 cells, which had been pr...

A patient is described in whom thyroid binding globulin (TBG) excess was found in association with a pituitary macroadenoma containing thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)-producing cells, and the potential for diagnostic confusion arising from this unusual combination of endocrine disorders is discussed. The patient presented with visual field disturbance, and magnetic resonance imaging led to th...

Eight children with cystinosis (3 with renal transplants, 2 on maintenance haemodialysis, 2 with chronic renal failure, and one with normal renal function) were studied for evidence of hypothyroidism, and compared with a control group of children with chronic renal failure due to other causes. Abnormal thyroid function was present in all the cystinotic patients: thyroxine (T4) low in 1, free th...

The aim of the present study was to determine associations of thyroid hormone levels and different metabolic parameters and anthropometric measurements with volume of nodular and nonnodular thyroid as well as with prevalence of goiter and thyroid nodules in middle-aged euthyroid subjects. Methods. The study consisted of 317 euthyroid subjects aged 48-49 from the Kaunas Cardiovascular Risk Cohor...

BACKGROUND Little is known about changes in thyroid function in obese children. An influence of leptin on thyroid hormone synthesis has been proposed. AIMS To examine thyroid function and leptin concentrations in obese children. METHODS Triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and leptin were measured in 118 obese children (aged 4.5-16 years); thyroid functi...

Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), also called mild thyroid failure, is diagnosed when peripheral thyroid hormone levels are within normal reference laboratory range but serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels are mildly elevated. This condition occurs in 3% to 8% of the general population. It is more common in women than men, and its prevalence increases with age. Of patients with SCH, 8...
