Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the most common preventable causes of mental retardation with a worldwide incidence of 1:4000 live births. Ideally universal screening at 3-4 days of age should be done for detecting CH. Abnormal values on screening (T4 < 6.5 ug/dL, TSH > 20 micro/L) should be confirmed by a venous sample (using age appropriate ...

Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is the commonest preventable cause of mental retardation in human species. It is so important for clinician to know its etiology epidemiology, clinical manifestation and treatment strategies. Since it is one of the rare serious diseases that should not be diagnosed clinically because late clinical features corresponds to ...

The 1980s have seen widespread growth in the screening of newborn infants for congenital hypothyroidism (CH). By 1982 it was estimated that 7‐9 million infants were screened annually.1 There has been further expansion since 1982, not only in communities with highly developed public health programmes, but also in less developed centres.2 Experience from

Availability of sensitive radioimunoassays for T4 and TSH has simplified the detection and treatment of congenital hypothyroidism. Early diagnosis by newborn screening and prompt treatment should minimize the serious complications of mental retardation.

Congenital hypothyroidism and HLA
Tissue Antigens, 1982HLA‐A, B and C antigens tested in 97 patients treated for congenital hypothyroidism, and in members of their families, are compared with normal frequencies from 635 controls. After adjustment for the number of tests, there remains in the patients only a negative association with A11, with a relative risk of 190, and no significant association in the ...

HYPERPROLACTINAEMIA IN CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM
Clinical Endocrinology, 1986SUMMARYSerum prolactin concentrations were measured in nine untreated hypothyroid infants and 23 euthyroid controls. In the former group the serum prolactin concentrations were tenfold higher than the controls (352 vs 34 μg/1), declining gradually upon treatment.

Imaging in congenital hypothyroidism
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2019Purpose of review Congenital hypothyroidism is a common worldwide condition. Due in part to increasingly widespread newborn screening, the number of patients with this diagnosis is increasing. In this review, we discuss currently available imaging techniques and the benefits and limitations of these techniques in evaluating ...

Electrocochleography in Congenital Hypothyroidism
Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1978SUMMARYDeafness in association with hypothyroidism has been well described. Animal experiments have demonstrated alterations of the normal electrocochleographic wave pattern in hypothyroidism and its correction with thyroid replacement therapy. In the present study a similar electrocochleographic response in a child with congenital hypothyroidism is ...

Congenital hypothyroidism in Iran
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2003Following elimination of iodine deficiency in Iran, the program of screening for congenital hypothyroidism (CH) was established in 1998. The descriptive findings of the study are reported here.From February 1998 to June 2001, cord blood spot samples from 8 hospitals and a rural birth center in Tehran and Damavand were collected and tested for TSH ...
