Alkaline phosphatase (ALP; EC 3.1.3.1) isoenzymes were measured in the plasma of 63 untreated hyperthyroid patients (the hyperthyroid group), 58 treated hyperthyroid patients, and 100 blood donors. Total, liver, and bone ALP activities were significantly higher in the hyperthyroid group than in the treated hyperthyroid group or the blood donors. Bone ALP was more frequently and more markedly ab...

Background: Hyperthyroidism is associated with liver oxidative stress causing liver dysfunction in many hyperthyroid patients. The hepatoprotective effect of Satureja Khuzestanica Essential Oil (SKEO), as herbal origin antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent on the hyperthyroidism induced hepatotoxicity and oxidative stress is investigated. Methods: Adult male sprague dawley rats were divided i...

This study assessed salt sensitivity, analyzing the effects of an increased saline intake on hemodynamic, morphological, and oxidative stress and renal variables in experimental thyroid disorders. Six groups of male Wistar rats were used: control, hypothyroid, hyperthyroid, and the same groups treated with salt (8% via food intake). Body weight, blood pressure (BP), and heart rate (HR) were rec...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to estimate the risk of hyperuricaemia and gout in people with hypothyroid or hyperthyroid status. METHODS This study analyzed data from individuals who participated in health screening programs at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in northern Taiwan (2000-2010). Participants were categorized as having euthyroid, hypothyroid, or hyperthyroid status according to...

Kidney weight was significantly decreased in hypothyroidism (induced by Na131I administration) and increased in hyperthyroidism (induced by thyroxine treatment) as compared to control in female Wistar rats. The tissue lipid peroxidation level remained unchanged in hyperthyroid rats but significantly increased in hypothyroid rats. Superoxide dismutase was decreased in both experimental groups bu...

Studies on the physiology of the cardiovascular system suggested that the generation of the heart rate signal is governed by nonlinear chaotic dynamics. No study investigated the nonlinear dynamics of heart rate in hyperthyroidism. We examined whether the heart rate dynamics of hyperthyroid patients is different from normal controls by the nonlinear analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) with...

The effects of hyperthyroidism on electrodermal habituation and responsiveness were examined in 43 hyperthyroid patients who were divided in two groups (medicated and unmedicated). In a comparison of 43 hyperthyroid and 43 normal controls; among patients with hyperthyroidism a great number of nonresponders were found. The distributions of SCR in habituation series in both group were almost the ...

BACKGROUND Hyperthyroidism, the most common endocrine disorder in cats, has been associated with low serum cobalamin concentrations. Whether this is a functional cobalamin deficiency of clinical importance has not been assessed. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES Cats with hyperthyroidism experience a functional cobalamin deficiency which correlates with their clinical catabolic state and is reversible wi...
