thyroid function test, any laboratory procedure that assesses the production of the two active thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), by the thyroid gland and the production of thyrotropin (thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH), the hormone that regulates thyroid secretion, by the ...

I have used the Thyroflex to test thyroid function for the past seven years in my medical practice, and it has revolutionized the way I manage thyroid disease. I used to rely only on blood tests to evaluate thyroid hormone levels but found them to correlate poorly with patient's signs and...

To summarize, there are medications that interfere with thyroid lab results by actually interfering with thyroid hormone function — this means they cause real alterations in thyroid hormone levels. Some of these alterations are clinically significant and may require a dose adjustment of your thyroid ...
The procedure described is not limited to tests of thyroid function and could easily be applied in most laboratories to redefine the ranges of results classified as equivocal. 展开 关键词: Curves DOI: 10.1177/000456328001700506 年份: 1980
Therefore, it is important to clarify how obesity and weight loss can affect thyroid function test results in that species. The objectives of this study were to compare thyroid function in obese dogs and in lean dogs and to explore the effects of caloric restriction and weight loss on thyroid...
Based on a single elevated or decreased TSH level, participants might revert to normal thyroid function over follow-up, which could have biased the results towards the null. However, previous IPD analyses including cohorts with just one TSH assessment documented an association between subclinical ...
and one patient developed thyroid gland hypoplasia after abscess formation due to a fourth branchial cleft cyst (BCC). Finally, 133 patients were included in this study. AITD diagnosis was made according to clinical history, symptoms, thyroid function test (TFT) results, and confirmation of antithy...
