abstract background and objective: t3 resin uptake test indicates the availability of thyroxin binding globulin (tbg), which is the carrier of a large amount of t3 and t4 in blood. we aimed to study the relationship between serum t3 resin uptake and serum lipids profile. material and methods: the participants aged 14.80 ± 38.29 were both males (59 29.5%) and females (141 70.5 %). t3 resin uptak...

objective in this study, we investigated the changes of the serum levels of thyroidhormones including thyroxine (t4), triiodothyronine (t3), t3 resin uptake andthyroid stimulating hormone (tsh) in epileptic children during treatment withanti-epileptic drugs (aeds) including carbamazepine (cbz), primidone (prm),phenobarbital and valproic acid (vpa). materials and methods this study consisted of ...

INTRODUCTION. It has been shown that inflammation affects thyroid function. In patients with end-stage renal disease, low plasma triiodothyronine (T3) may be an unsuspected expression of the inflammatory state of these patients. This study evaluated the correlation between T3 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HSCRP) levels in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis. MATERIA...

A 60-year-old woman, free of other disease, with severe clinical hyperthyroidism had normal total serum T4 with elevated free T4 concentration and T3 resin uptake characteristic of hyperthyroidism, with thyroid binding globulin (TBG) deficiency. However, serum TBG concentration as determined by immunoassay was normal, suggesting that the biochemical defect affecting the T4 binding sites did not...

Chadd, M. A., Gray, 0. P., and Davies, D. F. (1970). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 45, 374. Thyroid function tests in the newborn. The 131I triiodothyronine (T3) resin uptake test reflects thyroid function more closely than other acceptable tests currently available. The T3 uptake and protein-bound iodine (PBI) level were estimated in 20 premature and 20 full-term infants at birth and at th...

Genetically determined thyroxine-binding globulin deficiency is described in two families in the United Kingdom. All subjects in both pedigrees were euthyroid. Transmission was by sex-linkage; males showed low serum protein bound iodine and high thyroxine (T4) resin uptake due to complete absence of serum thryroxine-binding globulin; females were less severely affected. The distinctive biochemi...

We measured serum thyroxine (free and total), triiodothyronine (free and total), thyroxine-binding globulin, and triiodothyronine uptake by talc in 97 normal men and 50 pregnant women. Mean serum thyroxine and triiodothyronine concentrations were higher in the pregnant subjects (104 vs. 78 mug/liter and 1.69 vs. 1.30 mug/liter) because of a higher mean thyroxine-binding globulin concentration (...

The incidence of mole pregnancy appears to be higher in Iran than in Europe or North America. This gave us an opportunity to study a number of biochemical measurements related to the thyroid. In 14 patients with hydatiform mole, the T3 resin uptake, serum thyroxine (T4), ETR, T3 RIA, human serum TSH (hTSH) and serum human Chorinic gonadotropin (hCG) were measured. Of the 14 patients 6 sho...
