Association between change in serum bicarbonate and change in thyroid hormone levels in patients receiving conventional or more frequent maintenance haemodialysis

Abstract

Changes in bicarbonate were not associated with changes in thyroid hormone levels after adjusting for enPCR, as a marker of nutritional status. Future studies should examine whether improvement in acid base status improves thyroid function in hemodialysis patients with evidence of thyroid hypofunction.

Destroyed thyroid by acidic blood during subarachnoid hemorrhage: Experimental study

“…Follicular surface, total follicle surface, each follicular cell surface and total follicular cell count are calculated by formulas I, II, III, and IV, respectively, as shown in Figure 3. 10) μg/dl, 1.40 (0.29) μg/dl, <0.5 ng/dl, 50 (9), respectively in the control group, 7.32 (0.05), 94 (9) μg/dl, 1,16 (0.76) μg/dl, >0.5 ng/dl, 154 (30), respectively, in the SHAM group, and 7.21 (0.012), 53 (5) μg/dl, 1.01 (0.12) μg/dl, >0.5 ng/dl, 460 (80), respectively, in the study group. For all results, statistically significant differences were detected between the control group versus SHAM and SAH groups (P<0.001).…”

“…Thyrotoxicosis is frequently seen following stored thyroid hormone release from destructed thyroid gland during acidosis [8]. Correction of metabolic acidosis results in improved thyroid function [9]. Decreased blood pH could be the undetermined cause of hypothyroidism in intensive care units.…”

“…Thyrotoxicosis is also frequently seen during acidosis [8]. Treatment of metabolic acidosis reportedly improves thyroid function [9]. Hypothyroidism resulting from thyroid gland injury induced by acidic blood was firstly described by that study.…”

“…Each follicle is considered as an ellipsoid form (LM, GFAP, x20/A-B). Cell count estimation method in a slice (S1-n), and both cell and follicle volume estimation method is formulated in C. Follicular volumes (FV), total follicular volumes (TFV), each follicular cell volume (FCV) and total follicular cell counts (FCC) were calculated with Formulas I, II, III and IV, respectively (C)Numerical results of studyMean blood pH, T3, T4, TSH values and degenerated epithelial cell counts per follicle are 7.353 (0.037), 108 (10) μg/dl, 1.40 (0.29) μg/dl, <0.5 ng/dl, 50(9), respectively in the control group, 7.32 (0.05), 94 (9) μg/dl, 1,16 (0.76) μg/dl, >0.5 ng/dl, 154 (30), respectively, in the SHAM group, and 7.21 (0.012), 53 (5) μg/dl, 1.01 (0.12) μg/dl, >0.5 ng/dl, 460 (80), respectively, in the study group. For all results, statistically significant differences were detected between the control group versus SHAM and SAH groups (P<0.001).…”
