Background and Objective — Subclinical gestational hypothyroidism (SGH) diabetes mellitus (GDM) constitute two most common endocrine pathologies encountered during pregnancy. SGH GDM have pathophysiological mechanisms, being interrelated pathological conditions that are capable of complicating the course pregnancy, labor postpartum period both on part mother fetus. We aimed to analyze relations...

Objectives: Thyroid problems are one of the endocrine conditions that affect pregnant women most frequently. It is now widely acknowledged both overt and subclinical thyroid can have a negative impact on obstetrical neonatal outcomes. Surprisingly, there aren't many statistics from India regarding prevalence disease during pregnancy. The purpose this study to ascertain frequency dysfunction in ...

background and objective: hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy are common and from one of the deadly triad, along with hemorrhage and infection that contribute greatly to prenatal and maternal morbidity and mortality in the developing countries. this study was designed to investigate the relationship between maternal hypothyroidism and pre-eclampsia. materials and methods: in a prospec...

PURPOSE Thyroid dysfunction is common in preterm infants. Congenital hypothyroidism causes neurodevelopmental impairment, which is preventable if properly treated. This study was conducted to describe the characteristics of thyroid dysfunction in very low birth weight infants (VLBWIs), evaluate risk factors of hypothyroidism, and suggest the reassessment of thyroid function with an initially no...

BACKGROUND Thyroid hormone plays a critical role in fetal development. In pregnancy, increased thyroid hormone synthesis is required to meet fetal needs, resulting in increased iodine requirements. OBJECTIVE This article outlines changes to thyroid physiology and iodine requirements in pregnancy, pregnancy specific reference ranges for thyroid function tests and detection and management of th...

Congenital goiter is considered a rare occurrence, and may be related to hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, or euthyroidism. In this report, we describe a case of fetal goiter identified in the 34th gestational week in a 41-year-old secundigravida with normal thyroid functions. A conservative approach was followed; the fetal goiter was monitored via ultrasound, which suggested this was a case of ...

Thyroid hormone is critical for neonatal brain development, and even transient hypothyroidism can cause adverse neurocognitive outcomes. Infants exposed to excess iodine are at risk of developing hypothyroidism, especially those with congenital heart disease (CHD), because they are routinely exposed to excess iodine from intravenous iodinated contrast media and topical antiseptics. The aim of t...

Thyroid hormones (THs) are essential for proper brain development in mammals. TH insufficiency during early development causes structural and functional abnormalities in brain leading to cognitive dysfunction. The specific effects of developmental hypothyroidism on attention have not been well characterized in animal models. The present study was conducted to characterize the effects of develop...
