Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine cancer, although it is relatively rare compared to other cancers. Standard treatment involves thyroidectomy and radioiodine administration followed by life-long thyroxine administration. However, until recently, there was no medical treatment for advanced...
In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of levothyroxine (L-T4) administration on serum free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and serum total antioxidant capacity (TAC), serum total oxidant capacity (TOC), oxidative stress index (OSI) and s...
This study aims to evaluate the effect of body condition score (BCS) on hormonal profiles and to reveal their influence on the blood metabolites in Ouled Djellal ewes during the mating period. The experiment was conducted on thirty, clinically healthy and non-pregnant, Ouled Djellal ewes which have...
In this case, it was aimed to report the clinical, hematological and pathological analysis results of a lamb born as infected with border disease virus (BDV). Severe central nervous system findings such as standing inability, continuous teeth grinding, muscle fasciculations in the head, ear and tail...
A 14-year-old intact female Maltese dog weighting 4.84kg was presented with acute regurgitation. At presentation, the dog was diagnosed with megaesophagus and primary hypothyroidism based on the radiography and thyroid-stimulating hormone stimulation test, respectively. Treatment was initiated with...
Resumen Introducción: el trébol rojo es una leguminosa usada en la nutrición bovina por su aporte de proteína, actualmente se conoce que produce naturalmente metabolitos secundarios que son similares a los estrógenos, ocasionando alteraciones en la capacidad reproductiva de los animales. Objetivo: d...
Subclinical hypothyroidism has been associated with heart failure, but only small trials assessed whether treatment with levothyroxine has an impact on cardiac function. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, trial nested within the TRUST trial, Swiss participants ages ≥65 years with sub...
Sulforaphane is a redox-active natural product present in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli. Broccoli sprout-derived products are promising agents for the prevention of oxidative stress-related diseases, but some have long been suspected of thyroidal toxicity. Recent findings also raise the possi...
Even though the association between thyroid dysfunction and anemia is commonly described, it is not known whether it is clinically relevant. This study set out to quantify the association of thyroid dysfunction on hemoglobin (Hb) concentration and risk of anemia. A systematic review (MEDLINE and EMB...
Σκοπός της εργασίας αυτής ήταν η δυνατότητα διεύρυνσης της οιστρικής περιόδου στις προβατίνες Καραγκούνικης φυλής μέσω της φαρμακευτικής καταστολής της δραστηριότητας του θυρεοειδούς αδένος σε συγκεκριμένη περίοδο του έτους. Στην πρώτη φάση (12 μήνες) μελετήθηκε σε 10 προβατίνες η ετήσια διακύμανση...
Σε προβατίνες (n=20) δυο εγχώριων φυλών προβάτων (Χίου και Καραγκούνικης), που διαφοροποιούνται ως προς την εποχική αναπαραγωγική δραστηριότητα, μελετήθηκαν οι ετήσιες διακυμάνσεις των συγκεντρώσεων της προγεστερόνης και θυροξίνης, δυο ορμονών που επηρεάζουν την αναπαραγωγή στο είδος αυτό. Ο προσδιο...
Subclinical thyroid dysfunction comprises subclinical hypothyroidism (SHypo), defined as elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) by normal free thyroxine (FT4), and subclinical hyperthyroidism (SHyper) with decreased or undetectable TSH and normal FT4. Up to 10% of the elderly have SHypo, which i...
Ο υπερθυρεοειδισμός είναι συχνή ενδοκρινοπάθεια σε γάτες ηλικίας μεγαλύτερης των 8 ετών και οφείλεται σε καλοήθη αδενώματα ή αδενωματώδη υπερπλασία του θυρεοειδή αδένα. Οι κλινικές εκδηλώσεις της νόσου είναι αποτέλεσμα της υπερλειτουργίας του θυρεοειδή αδένα, συχνότερα δε παρατηρούνται κακή θρεπτική...
Μελετήθηκε η ωοθηκική και η θυρεοειδική δραστηριότητα σε 10 προβατίνες της φυλής Lacaune στην Αττική κατά τη διάρκεια ενός έτους. Οι προβατίνες ήταν ενσταβλισμένες, διατρέφονταν με ισόρροπο σιτηρέσιο και ήταν απομονωμένες από τους κριούς. Σκοπός της μελέτης ήταν να καθορισθεί η αναπαραγωγική περίοδο...
Reference ranges of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4) are defined by their distribution in apparently healthy populations (2.5th and 97.5th percentiles), irrespective of disease risk, and are used as cutoffs for defining and clinically managing thyroid dysfunction. To provid...
Hyperthyroidism is associated with increased fracture risk, but it is not clear if lower thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and higher free thyroxine (FT4) in euthyroid individuals are associated with fracture risk. To evaluate the association of TSH and FT4 with incident fractures in euthyroid indiv...

To provid...
Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is a common condition in elderly people, defined as elevated serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) with normal circulating free thyroxine (fT4). Evidence is lacking about the effect of thyroid hormone treatment. We describe the protocol of a large randomised contro...
"Objetivo: el fin de este artículo es dar a conocer la experiencia del manejo multidisciplinario de un caso documentado de carcinoma de células de Hürthle en el que se encontró captación con I-131 y por lo tanto opción terapéutica con el mismo. Presentación de caso: se trata de una paciente en la se...
"Fundamento: El hipotiroidismo es la condición más común ligada a un déficit hormonal. A pesar de ello existe una escasez de datos en España sobre su su prevalencia. El objetivo fue estimar la prevalencia en Andalucía a través del registro de pacientes que consumieron hormona tiroidea durante el año...
IMPORTANCE: Associations between subclinical thyroid dysfunction and fractures are unclear and clinical trials are lacking. OBJECTIVE: To assess the association of subclinical thyroid dysfunction with hip, nonspine, spine, or any fractures. DATA SOURCES AND STUDY SELECTION: The databases of MEDLINE...
BACKGROUND: Data on the association between subclinical thyroid dysfunction and fractures conflict. PURPOSE: To assess the risk for hip and nonspine fractures associated with subclinical thyroid dysfunction among prospective cohorts. DATA SOURCES: Search of MEDLINE and EMBASE (1946 to 16 March 2014)...
The association between subclinical thyroid dysfunction and cardiovascular outcomes has been recently clarified with the publication of three individual participant data (IPD) analyses from the Thyroid Studies Collaboration. We identified original cohort studies with a systematic review and pooled i...
