Levothyroxine requirement in congenital hypothyroidism: a 12-year longitudinal study.

, 2015
The aim of the replacement therapy with levothyroxine in congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is to correct hypothyroidism and ensure normal growth and neuropsychological development. Few data are available about the appropriate dose during childhood and early

Attempted suicide with levothyroxine in an adolescent girl

, 2013
Attempted suicide with levothyroxine is very rare and has been described only in a few case reports. Although acute accidental or intentional overdoses of thyroid hormones can lead to marked elevations in serum T 4 levels, many children who take as much ...

Association between levothyroxine supplementation for hypothyroidism in late pregnancy and risk of prematurity: a population-based cohort study

BMC Medicine
Background Hypothyroidism in pregnancy is associated with obstetrical and fetal complications, such as prematurity. However, whether its management by levothyroxine affects the risk of prematurity is not yet clear.

The effects of uninterrupted and interrupted sitting on blood pressure and arterial stiffness in patients with established coronary heart disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sedentary behaviour is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In healthy adults, prolonged uninterrupted sitting acutely increases blood pressure (BP) and aortic stiffness; however, these effects can be mitigated with light physical activity interruptions.

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on cognitive performance, cerebrovascular function, sleep and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.
