Levothyroxine therapy in thyroidectomized patients: ongoing challenges and controversies [PDF]
This mini-review provides an update on the challenges and controversies surrounding levothyroxine therapy in thyroidectomized patients, following an extensive review on dosing strategies and available formulations.

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.

Factors associated with permanent hypothyroidism in infants with congenital hypothyroidism
BMC Pediatrics, 2019 Background Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the most common endocrine diseases in childhood. A significant proportion of CH cases are transient, but the risk factors for permanent CH (PCH) are not yet well established.

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.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Menopause increases coronary heart disease risk, in part through reduced oestrogen‐mediated nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. The Buckberg ratio, an index of myocardial oxygen supply–demand balance, in which higher values reflect more favourable myocardial perfusion, is lower in postmenopausal females (PMFs) than in age‐matched males.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Suboptimal maternal nutrition alters placental and developing blood–brain barrier (BBB) protective function and is associated with increased fetal brain vulnerability. In the placenta, nutritional adversity may reduce the exchange surface area and promote meta‐inflammation, compromising barrier efficiency in a model‐ and context ...

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 ...

KV channels contribute to thermal hyperaemia in skeletal muscle of humans
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Using skeletal muscle microdialysis and pulsed short‐wave diathermy, we examined the contribution of KV channels to thermal hyperaemia in human skeletal muscle. KV channel antagonism with 4‐aminopyridine attenuated thermal hyperaemia by ∼65%, identifying a critical downstream role for these ion channels in the vasodilatory ...
