Assessment of quality of life among hypothyroid patients in Assiut University Hospital
Dietary intervention with Únicla dairy products, naturally enriched with selenium and omega-3 fatty acids, may improve thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels in women with subclinical hypothyroidism
The aim of this study is to evaluate longitudinal growth and final height in patients with Congenital Hypothyroidism detected by neonatal screening and factors affecting it.
This research aims to evaluate the relation between SCH and cardiovascular System by assessment of lipid profile and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), as a marker of atherosclerosis, and endothelial function.
2. Aim/ Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical, laboratory and echocardiographic findings in children with SCH. To investigate the effect of replacement therapy with levothyroxine on cardiovascular risk factors in children with SCH.
Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the most preventable causes of neurocognitive impairment because early treatment is possible in neonates. The thyroid hormone is important for normal growth and development in infancy. After introducing national screening test using capillary thyroid stimulating hormone level, the incidence of untreated congenital hypothyroidism has significantly decreased. According to the Italian Registry of Congenital Hypothyroidism, congenital heart disease is the most frequent disease condition associated with congenital hypothyroidism. Congenital heart disease is also reported to be a risk factor for non-autoimmune hypothyroidism in children. In addition, intravenous iodine contrast media is frequently used for diagnostic imaging and therapeutic intervention in congenital heart disease patients. Excess iodine exposed by iodine contrast media may disturb thyroid function in adult and pediatric population. However, there is no generally accepted guideline for screening thyroid dysfunction in congenital heart disease infants. An increased prevalence of thyroid disease, particularly sub-clinical hypothyroidism, has been reported in Down Syndrome. In children with Down Syndrome, a possible concomitant sub-clinical hypothyroidism-related impairment of cardiac function or structure may worsen their clinical condition and can ultimately affect their life expectancy.
Therefore, for early detection of hypothyroidism in children with type 1 diabetes, it is suggested to measure anti-thyroid antibodies and thyroid stimulating hormone at disease onset and in yearly intervals after the age of 12 yr. Furthermore, the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes Consensus Clinical Guidelines recommend the screening of thyroid function by analysing circulating thyroid stimulating hormone at the diagnosis of diabetes and, thereafter every 2nd yr. in asymptomatic individuals without goitre and more frequent if goitre present .
This study evaluates the effectiveness of stimulating the neurological segments c8-th5 in patients with latent hypothyroidism. One half of the participants will receive an osteopathic manuel treatment in order to stimulate the relevant segments, the other half will receive no treatment.
