Thyroid dysfunction in critically ill patients: to treat or not to treat?

Iervasi Giorgio

The low-triiodothyronine (T3) syndrome, also referred as non thyroidal illness, is a frequent finding usually associated to a wide constellation of both acute and chronic extra-thyroid critical disorders that largely differ each other in terms of aetiology, organ involvement, evolution, and clinical impact. Independently of its origin, severity and time-course, the low-T3 syndrome has been always considered an adaptive and positive process not needing spe...

Thyroid hormone (T3) is mostly produced in peripheral tissues by thyroxine (T4) deiodination, and its functional effects are directly related to tissue concentration, which is quite difficult to assay by conventional immunological methods. We report a novel technique, based on tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) coupled to HPLC, which was used in left ventricular myocardium obtained from rat and human hearts.Samples were homogenized in...

Background and Objective: Thyroid function reference ranges are statistically defined by the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles, which do not account for potential risk of clinical outcomes. We aimed to define the optimal ranges of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4), based on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality.Methods: We performed an individual-participant data analysis and identified prospecti...
