Thyroid hormones influence renal development, kidney structure, renal hemodynamics, glomerular filtration rate, the function of many transport systems along the nephron, and sodium and water homeostasis. Effects of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism on kidney function are the result of direct renal effects, as well as systemic hemodynamic, metabolic, and cardiovascular effects. Most of the renal manifestations of thyroid disorders, which are clinically most significant with hypothyroidism, are reversible with treatment. Patients with hypothyroidism can have clinically important reductions in GFR, so screening for hypothyroidism should be considered in patients with unexplained elevations in serum creatinine. Patients with thyroid disorders are also at risk for immune-mediated glomerular diseases. Finally, patients with nephrotic syndrome, as well as acute and chronic kidney injury, have alterations in thyroid gland physiology that can impact thyroid function and the testing of thyroid function status. Dialysis patients have frequently hypothyroidism whose biological diagnosis must be careful.

Importance: Neonatal intensive care has advanced over recent decades, yet premature birth remains associated with increased neonatal mortality and morbidity.
Objective: To describe health service use, morbidity, and medication needs up to age 5 years in a contemporary cohort of children born preterm.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This population-based cohort study was conducted in British Columbia (BC), Canada, using health service and pharmacy data linked using provincial administrative databases.

Objective: This study presents a comparative analysis of outcomes of lateral orbital wall decompression performed using ultrasonic bone removal with standard and modified techniques.
Material And Methods: The study included 78 patients (109 orbits) with exophthalmos without visual impairment (subgroups 1A and 1B) and with optic neuropathy (ON) due to thyroid eye disease (TED) (subgroups 2A and 2B). Lateral wall decompression (LWD) was performed using ultrasonic bone removal with a modified (=58, patient subgroups 1A and 2A) or standard (=51, subgroups 1B and 2B) technique.

Psoriasis is an inflammatory dermatological condition challenging to treat and prone to recurrence. The pathogenesis of psoriasis is closely associated with metabolic disorders, while therapies targeting the dysregulated metabolism in psoriasis remain limited. Therefore, exploring the pathogenesis of psoriasis and identifying potential metabolic therapeutic targets is imperative.

Selenocysteine insertion sequence-binding protein 2 () is crucial for the biosynthesis of selenoproteins, including iodothyronine deiodinases, which play a vital role in thyroid hormone metabolism. Mutations in can disrupt thyroid function, leading to various clinical manifestations across multiple systems. We present the case of a 3-year-old Saudi female who was referred for genetic testing due to poor growth, developmental abnormalities, and notable facial dysmorphism.

Objective: This study sought to identify key prognostic factors in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), emphasizing the prognostic role of free triiodothyronine (FT3) levels.
Research Design And Methods: This retrospective cohort study enrolled 992 HCM-HFpEF patients from two Chinese medical centers between 2009 and 2019, excluding those with thyroid-affecting medications or disorders. Data on demographic and clinical variables, including FT3, were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression, Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival analysis, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis to explore prognostic factors and FT3's nonlinear predictive value.
