Hormones levels before and after 20 treatments

Hyperthyroidism is one of the most common thyroid disorders and the most common cause of hyperthyroidism, as the thyroid secretes excessive amount of the hormone thyroxine. In these patients, serum TSH is below the lower limit (often unmeasurable), and the free T4 and/or free T3 are elevated. Hyperthyroidism mostly occurs around the age of 30-40 an...

This study was carried out in the Center of Endocrinology and Diabetes in Baghdad during the period between October 2019 to February 2020. The aim was to measure the level of some apoptosis markers and some autoimmune antibodies related to the thyroid gland in Iraqi patients with hyperthyroidism and evaluate the correlation between all the measured...
Background
Levothyroxine is the recommended treatment to achieve euthyroidism in
hypothyroid patients. Achieving euthyroidism was found to improve quality of life
in some studies but failed to do so in other studies. Thyroid patient reported
outcomes (ThyPRO) is a thyroid-specific health-related quality of life measure.
This study aims to assess pa...
Thyrotropin-stimulating hormone-producing adenoma (TSHoma) is a rare cause of hyperthyroidism. Patients with this condition are often diagnosed when the tumor has already grown significantly, as the diagnosis of TSHoma is frequently delayed and confused with primary hyperthyroidism. Our case describes a 60-year-old woman with a goiter who was refer...
TSH is a hormone that is secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland and stimulates the secretions of the thyroid gland. Its secretions are controlled by the TSH-R on the epithelial cells of the thyroid gland. It controls the production of the thyroxin hormone from the thyroid gland that is involved in the production of heat and energy. Bu...
Introduction: Because androgen receptors are expressed in this tissue, sex hormones may affect thyroid function by, in addition to TSH, promoting thyrocyte proliferation in culture. Aim: The study's goal is to see how androgenic steroid hormone influences the thyroid. Materials and methods: Adult female wistar rat (no. 12) and weight (180-200 g) we...
