objective(s): thyroid hormones play an essential role in fetal growth and maternal hypo-thyroidism which leads to cardiovascular deficiency in their offspring.  considering this, we intended to investigate the impact of gestational hypothyroidism on offspring vascular contractibility and possible underlying mechanisms. materials and methods: hypothyroidism was induced in female rats by administ...

OBJECTIVES Maternal hyper- and hypothyroidism have been associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, but studies have led to inconsistent results. We aimed to identify children born to mothers with a hospital-recorded diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction in Denmark and to study the association with gestational age at delivery and birth weight of the child. STUDY DESIGN Population...

Purpose Assessment of hypothyroidism prevalence and clinical significance among pregnant women in Lebanon. Methods We performed a single-center retrospective cohort study at the American University of Beirut Medical Center. Clinical, demographic, and laboratory data were collected and analyzed using trimester-specific ranges for hypothyroidism. Results Of 920 pregnant women, 17% had hypothy...

Background & Aims: Since at early pregnancy (<20 week) fetal thyroid gland is undeveloped, normal development of the Fetal brain is highly dependent on maternal thyroid hormones. There are excessive adverse perinatal outcomes associated with overt and subclinical hypothyroidism such as increase of Abortion, preeclampsia, placenta Abruption, LBW, preterm labor, impaired fetal neuropsychological ...

In normal pregnancy, the maternal thyroid gland undergoes alterations to maintain necessary levels of hormones (THs) in each gestational period. However, various factors may reduce TH levels, potentially impacting onset and development pregnancy. Such cases dysfunction are divided into overt (clinical) hypothyroidism, subclinical or isolated hypothyroxinemia, depending on severity deficiency. T...

Aim: In this paper, the related factors of transient hypothyroidism in premature infants were discussed, incidence THOP was observed, and risk analyzed to guide future work. Methods: From January 2017 2018, 117 admitted neonatology Department First Affiliated Hospital Bengbu Medical College selected diagnosed with 48 cases, including 31 males 17 females.&lt; 1 500 g ~ 2 70 &gt; 30 cases; Gestat...

Objective: Gestational diabetes mellitus is characterized by increased blood sugar that first appears during pregnancy. Multiple articles&#x0D; have described a relationship between hypothyroidism/subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) and rise in the risk of concomitant&#x0D; pregnancy complications, including gestational (GDM), but effect SCH on uncertain the&#x0D; literature. We clarified contribu...
