Low serum thyroxine concentrations and neural maturation in preterm infants.
The effect of hypothyroxinaemia on postnatal progression of the motor nerve conduction velocity was studied in 33 very low birthweight infants. Serum concentrations of thyroid stimulating hormone, triiodothyronine, and thyroxine were determined at birth and at ages 3, 7, and 21 days. Nerve conduction velocity was measured in the first week of life, on day 21, and at 40 weeks' postmenstrual age....

متن کاملSequential concentrations of copper and ceruloplasmin in serum from preterm infants with rickets and fractures.
Concentrations of copper (Cu) and ceruloplasmin in serum were measured serially in 49 preterm infants with mean (+/- SEM) birth weights of 979 +/- 33 g and gestational ages of 28.4 +/- 0.3 weeks at three, six, nine, and 12 months postpartum. Serial radiographic studies showed 17 infants with (group A) and 32 infants without (group B) rickets or fractures. Cu and ceruloplasmin concentrations in ...
متن کاملSerum free thyroxine and free triiodothyronine concentrations in pregnancy.
Blood was taken from women in each trimester of pregnancy at routine antenatal visits. Further samples were collected from an age matched control group of euthyroid women taking no medication. Free triiodothyronine and free thyroxine concentrations were measured by direct radioimmunoassay (Amerlex Kit methods, Amersham International, Amersham, Buckinghamshire).2 These free hormone assays use th...
