Despite increasing doses of levothyroxine, his thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) remained elevated and he was referred for further assessment as he was unable to tolerate further titration. On ...
We present a case of a clinically euthyroid patient, who had persistently elevated thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) but free thyroxine within the reference limits. She underwent repeated thyroid ...
TSH levels seem counterintuitive. A high TSH suggests an underactive thyroid gland, while low TSH levels indicate an ...
Normal’ TSH and FT4 concentrations change with age, and the failure to consider those changes in assessment can lead to ...
levels but lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. TSH values were positively correlated with TC, TG, and ...
Objective Thyroid hormones are essential for normal brain development. The aim of this study is to assess if high concentration of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) that is below the clinical ...
Intermittent or non-compliance with levothyroxine (L-T4) replacement therapy will result in discordant serum TSH and FT4 values (high TSH/high FT4) because of a persistently unstable thyroid state ...
Explain what to expect during the test. If your child is anxious about it, work together on ways to stay calm. Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is made by the pituitary, a pea-sized gland at the base ...
Multinomial logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between fluoride exposure and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level (low/normal/high). Other available variables permitted ...
Recombinant human TSH (rhTSH) is used in patients who have had surgery for thyroid cancer but are at low risk of recurrence. The rhTSH is used for the preparation of postoperative administration ...
