Our study has shown DTE therapy caused modest weight loss, and nearly half (48.6%) of the study patients expressed preference for DTE over l-T4
our study showed significantly higher TSH in the DTE-treated group, which suggests that the improvement observed in the DTE-treated group is not mediated through the changes in TSH levels
Study finds desiccated thyroid (armour thyroid) was associated with great weight loss, mood improvement than T4 alone. Desiccated thyroid was preferred by patients in the study. Conversion rate was 100 mcg T4 to 88 mg desiccated thyroid.
the potential benefits of early detection and treatment of subclinical thyroid dysfunction significantly outweigh the potential side-effects that could result from early diagnosis and therapy
Joint statement on early treatment of thyroid disease and subclinical thyroid dysfunction from The american association of clinical endocrinologists, the American Thyroid Association, and the Endocrine Society
elevated autoimmune markers against the thyroid and an elevated TSH are both independent risk factors for thyroid malignancy in those with thyroid nodules.
Study describes the T3 effect on mitochondrial biogenesis. T3 interacts with receptors involved with mitochondrial biogenesis in 3 ways: thyroid hormone receptors (TR), thyroid hormone receptor elements (TRE), and a combination of the two.
Bisphenol A (BPA) shown to interfere with the T3 and thyroid hormone receptor interaction. This study even showed that BPA inhibited thyroid receptor transcription.
Wow, thyroid hormones play a significant role in cardiac remodeling post MI. Thyroid hormones, "promotes tissue growth and differentiation and favorably remodels cardiac cell while increases cellular survival..." How many people post-MI are having their thyroid evaluated, let alone correctly evaluated?
This one size treats all approach that medicine takes in its recommendations to cancer evaluation is BS (forgive my french). Women with Hashimoto's disease are at increased risk of Papillary Thyroid cancer risk (30%) compared to those without.
