- * Screening focuses on measuring thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine in dried blood samples from babies, but there’s no universal agreement on the ideal TSH threshold for diagnosis, although 8 mU/L is commonly accepted.
- * This study, involving eight sets of twins, aimed to evaluate whether a TSH threshold of 8 mU/L affects growth and development; results showed no significant differences in outcomes between twins with TSH levels above and below this threshold.
