Introduction: Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are found in ~3% abdominal scans, rising to 10% in the elderly.

Introduction: The effects of maternal suboptimal gestational thyroid function (SGTF) on age 3 offspring’s cognitive function were investigated in the Controlled Antenatal Thyroid Screening (CATS) randomised trial, comparing SGTF mothers who received (SGTF-T), or didn’t (SGTF-U), levothyroxine during pregnancy. The analysis was repeated at age 9 in the CATS-II follow-up study, also including children of mothers with normal gestational thyroid function (NGTF). Here we ...

Objectives: The Controlled Antenatal Thyroid Screening (CATS) study I was a randomised trial investigating the effects of levothyroxine treatment for suboptimal gestational thyroid function (SGTF), evaluating mothers with normal gestational thyroid function (NGTF), SGTF who received (SGTF-T), or didn’t (SGTF-U), levothyroxine during pregnancy. The present follow-up study (CATS II) reports the long-term effects of SGTF and levothyroxine treatment on anthropometric and card...
