ABSTRACT The function and protection of the parathyroid glands are increasingly popular research topics. New Zealand white rabbits are the most commonly used animal model of parathyroid ischemia. However, information on ...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine the morphological and metric of the thyroid gland, and Total T4 and Free T4 hormonal values among domestic and wild felids without thyroid diseases. Thirty-three felids without thyr...

A influência do hipogonadismo sobre a função tireoidiana de ratas hipertireóideas e eutireóideas foi medida com base no perfil sérico dos hormônios tireoidianos, dos esteróides ovarianos e do TSH e na histomorfom...

Abstract In this research the absorbed dose by the thyroid gland of radioiodine 131I during treatment of the thyroid cancer after total or partial remove of the thyroid gland by operation, the radioiodine is concentrated...

Abstract A 15‐year‐old Miniature Horse mare with persistently increased plasma calcium (total and ionized) and serum parathyroid hormone concentrations was presented for suspected primary hyperparathyroidism. Ultraso...

PURPOSE: To quantitatively evaluate the vascularity of the thyroid parenchyma in patients diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) compared with healthy controls by using vascularity index (VI) through power Doppler...

Abstract Background Primary congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is a rare endocrine disorder in cats with a largely unknown genetic cause. Objectives Describe the clinical presentation of CH in 11 affected cats and identify t...

Avaliou-se o efeito da administração de fluoreto de sódio sobre a tireoide de 12 ovinos, distribuídos em dois grupos: o grupo controle (n=6) recebeu somente sal iodado (5g de NaCl/animal + 0,2ppm I/kg MS) e o grupo t...

Abstract Background Exogenous iodine interferes with the uptake of radioactive iodine (131I) by the thyroid gland. This has potential implications for the treatment of cats with hyperthyroidism that have recently undergo...

Background Diagnosis of protein loss into the gastrointestinal tract using noninvasive techniques is challenging. In people, scintigraphy not only is a sensitive tool to confirm protein‐losing enteropathy (PLE), but it...

Abstract Fetal thyroid complications in pregnancy are uncommon, and are commonly related to the passage of substances through the placenta. The excessive iodine intake during the pregnancy is a well-known mechanism of fe...

Abstract Background Resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) is a rare endocrine disorder, most commonly caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor β (TRβ) gene, resulting in the RTH beta (RTHβ) subtype. In contra...

It is described the elaboration of a protocol to induce hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism in mice by administrating thyroxin and propylthiouracil, respectively, in the drinking water. The drugs were administered to adul...

Background/Aim: Mylohyoid boutonnière is a common anatomical variant with extremely rare clinical manifestations. We report two cases of symptomatic unilateral mylohyoid boutonnière with sublingual gland herniation. Ca...

It is well known that pituitary TSH exerts the major task in the regulation of thyroid function. However, this gland is capable of certain degree of autonomy, independently of TSH control. Iodine plays an important role ...

Indirect development is widespread in anurans and is considered an ancestral condition. The metamorphosis of larvae into juveniles involves highly coordinated morphological, physiological, biochemical, and behavioral cha...

Key points Pregnancy places a metabolic overload on the maternal thyroid, especially in the first trimester, mainly because of the demand imposed by the conceptus. The fetal thyroid becomes functionally mature only aro...
