Thyroid hormone levels within reference range are associated with heart rate, cardiac structure, and function in middle-aged men and women [PDF]
, 2013 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
