A validated nomogram predicts hypothyroidism risk within 12 months after hemithyroidectomy using clinical and pathological variables, aiding tailored patient counseling and postoperative monitoring.
Hypothyroidism increases the incidence of CABG and is linked to higher risks of postoperative complications, heart failure, stroke, and major adverse cardiovascular events, highlighting the importance of preoperative thyroid function optimi
This real-world study demonstrates a dose-dependent increase in suboptimal thyroid hormone control among adults treated with levothyroxine, emphasizing the need for enhanced TSH monitoring in patients on higher doses.
A Phase 2 trial found that once-weekly subcutaneous levothyroxine (XP-8121) was generally well tolerated and suggested a dose conversion of about four times the daily oral dose for adults with hypothyroidism.
Thyroid abnormalities found during pregnancy, especially when subclinical hypothyroidism and TPO antibodies coexist, can signal a much higher long-term risk of overt hypothyroidism, supporting ongoing thyroid follow-up after delivery.
A randomized clinical trial demonstrates that a 15% dose increase allows levothyroxine to be taken with breakfast without compromising TSH stability, significantly improving patient preference and well-being.
A longitudinal analysis from the SWAN study indicates that women treated with levothyroxine for hypothyroidism do not face a higher risk of cardiovascular events compared to those without thyroid disease, providing clinical reassurance for
