Our study suggests long-lived, genetically specified Mit mutants employ
a novel metabolism and that life span may well arise as a function of metabolic state.
In November 2002, the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE) released new guidelines for clinical practice for the diagnosis and treatment of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, which includes a new thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) reference range of 0.3 to 3.0 mIU/
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
TSH levels used to monitor substitution, mostly regulated by intracellular T3 in the pituitary, may not be such a good indicator of adequate thyroid hormone action in all tissues
Low-level environmental lead exposure may accelerate progressive renal insufficiency in patients without diabetes who have chronic renal disease. Repeated chelation therapy may improve renal function and slow the progression of renal insufficiency
Effects of ethyl-eicosapentaenoic acid omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on hot flashes and quality of life among middle-aged women: a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.
Supplementation with E-EPA omega-3 fatty acid reduced HF frequency and improved the HF score relative to placebo
These data have important implications for the supplementation of a combination of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants in the successful management of female infertility.
This present study indicates therefore that in breast cancer cell lines there are functional insulin
receptors that regulate breast cancer cell growth.
, we estimate the risk of persistent TD to be 32% after 5 years of neuroleptic exposure (95% confidence interval [CI] = 23%-43%), 57% after 15 years of exposure (95% CI = 47%-66%), and 68% after 25 years of exposure
The efficacy of SAMe in treating depressive syndromes and disorders is superior with that of placebo and comparable to that of standard tricyclic antidepressants. Since SAMe is a naturally occurring compound with relatively few side-effects, it is a potentially important treatment for depression
