Modeling Iodine Deficiency [PDF]
arXivThis paper presents a four-unit, four-component mathematical model of iodine metabolism and its impact on thyroid hormone levels in the body. We focus on the relationships between iodine (I-), triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) through the mixer, thyroid, sensor (pituitary gland), and metabolism. Iodine plays a

Initial low‐dose oral levothyroxine in a child with Down syndrome, myxedema, and cardiogenic shock
Clinical Case Reports, 2019 Myxedema is extremely rare in children, and guidelines are lacking. We treated a 12‐year‐old girl with myxedema and cardiogenic shock with initial low dose (0.3‐2.5 μg/kg body weight/day) of oral levothyroxine and intensive care.
