An update on subclinical hypothyroidism and subclinical hyperthyroidism
Expert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2014Subclinical thyroid dysfunction is characterized by normal levels of peripheral thyroid hormone, paired with a TSH level that is either lower than (subclinical hyperthyroidism) or higher than (subclinical hypothyroidism) the normal laboratory reference range. Slight shifts in peripheral hormone levels result in significant serum TSH changes.

Homocysteine Concentrations in Subclinical Hypothyroidism
Endocrine Research, 2004Hyperhomocysteinemia is considered to be an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic heart disease, including coronary artery disease (CAD). It is already known that overt hypothyroidism gives rise to a slight hyperhomocysteinemia. However, the effects of subclinical hypothyroidism on the levels of homocysteine are not known.

Subclinical Hypothyroidism and Pregnancy
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2006Pregnancy has a considerable impact on thyroid homeostasis that complicates the diagnosis of hypothyroidism. Pregnant women with overt hypothyroidism have appreciable maternal morbidity as well as perinatal morbidity and mortality. Treatment of such women has been shown to improve these outcomes.

[Subclinical hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism].
Recenti progressi in medicina, 2000Currently, technical methods to obtain precocious and reliable diagnosis of thyroid disorders are available for physicians. Therefore today, patients affected by mild hypo- or hyperthyroidism are more often diagnosed when they are still asymptomatic; these mild forms of thyroid disorder are known as subclinical hypo- and hyperthyroidism.

Managing subclinical hypothyroidism
Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 1998In a patient with overt primary hypothyroidism, management is usually straightforward: treatment with thyroxine should be offered to anyone with characteristic clinical features, a raised serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration and a low serum thyroxine (T4) concentration.

Treatments in Endocrinology, 2002
The term 'subclinical hypothyroidism' applies to patients who have mildly increased levels of serum thyrotropin hormone (TSH) and normal levels of thyroxine and liothyronine (triiodiothyronine). This very common condition, also called 'mild thyroid failure', accounts for 75% of patients who have increased serum TSH.

Revue medicale de Bruxelles, 2004
Subclinical hypothyroidism is defined as normal serum free thyroxine and tri-iodothyronine concentrations and a slightly eleveted serum thyrotropin (TSH) concentration. Only laboratory results can detect this disorder. The causes of this disease are the same as those of overt hypothyroidism.

The New Zealand medical journal, 1980
Clinical and biochemical indices of thyroid function were compared in 18 euthyroid control subjects and 54 patients at risk of developing hypothyroidism, and the assessment repeated after a four-week trial of oral triiodothyronine (T3) 40 microgram daily. Patients with minor elevation of the pre-treatment serum TSH concentration (5-15 microU/ml) showed
