Raised serum TSH in hypothyroidism.
It is desirable to detect early hypothyroidism of the mildest degree even before conventional tests of thyroid function become abnormal. Serum TSH levels (normal: undetectable to 4 muU/ml) rise in patients with mild hypothyroidism long before serum T4 and T3 levels fall. In the patient described the serum TSH level was 310 muU/ml, while other tests of thyroid function gave normal results. After...
متن کاملEffect of gamma-oryzanol on serum TSH concentrations in primary hypothyroidism.
A single oral dose (300 mg) of gamma-oryzanol extracted from rice-bran oil produced a significant reduction on the elevated serum TSH levels in hypothyroid patients. Similarly, chronic treatment with gamma-oryzanol resulted in decreased serum TSH levels in 6 of 8 patients. There was no change in the serum levels of thyroxine-iodine and triiodothyronine during the study. In addition, there was n...

متن کاملFeto-maternal Outcome Using New Screening Criteria of Serum TSH for Diagnosing Hypothyroidism in Pregnancy.
INTRODUCTION Evidence suggests that by using the classical non pregnant reference range for serum TSH (STSH), one might miss hypothyroidism in pregnancy. Therefore, upper normal cut off value of S TSH should be taken as <2.5 mIU/L in the first trimester and <3mIU/L in the second and third trimester. However, two Indian studies have reported higher trimester specific reference ranges in the Indi...
متن کاملUmbilical cord blood TSH: a predictor of congenital hypothyroidism.
Newborn screening is the most modern public health preventive screening program involving the population at large and is mandatory in the USA, Europe, Japan and many South Asian countries. It is unfortunate that in India, newborn screening has not been given the attention it deserves. Neonatal hypothyroid screening using cord blood is an easy, practical & effective method. In most screening pro...
