BackgroundIndividuals exhibit fluctuations in the concentration of serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) over time. The scale of these variations ranges from minutes to hours, and from months to years.

Triiodothyronine and free thyroxine levels are differentially associated with metabolic profile and adiposity-related cardiovascular risk markers in euthyroid middle-aged subjects [PDF]
Background: We previously showed that in healthy young men a less favorable body composition is associated with higher FT3 levels within the euthyroid range.

Intrauterine Zn deficiency favors thyrotropin-releasing hormone-increasing effects on thyrotropin serum levels and induces subclinical hypothyroidism in weaned rats [PDF]
Individuals who consume a diet deficient in zinc (Zn-deficient) develop alterations in hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis function, i.e., a low metabolic rate and cold insensitivity.

Thyrotropin-secreting pituitary tumors [PDF]
I. Introduction The term “TSH-secreting pituitary tumors” includes two opposite clinical conditions: true thyrotroph neoplasia that results in secondary hyperthyroidism, also called “central hyperthyroidism,” and pituitary hyperplasia resulting from longstanding primary hypothyroidism. The latter condition was first recognized 145 yr ago (1), while the

The decrease in growth hormone (GH) response after repeated stimulation with GH-Releasing hormone is partly caused by an elevation of somatostatin tonus. [PDF]
Repeated injection of GHRH leads to a decrease in the GH response in normal subjects. Arginine (Arg) stimulates GH secretion by suppression of hypothalamic somatostatin.

The Two Faces of Janus: Why Thyrotropin as a Cardiovascular Risk Factor May Be an Ambiguous Target
Elevated concentrations of free thyroid hormones are established cardiovascular risk factors, but the association of thyrotropin (TSH) levels to hard endpoints is less clear.

Thyroid hormone levels within reference range are associated with heart rate, cardiac structure, and function in middle-aged men and women [PDF]
Background: Triiodothyronine (T3) has many effects on the heart, and marked changes in cardiac function and structure occur in patients with (subclinical) thyroid disease. We investigated whether between-subject variation in thyroid hormone levels within
