It is found that 3 months after removal of thyroid gland in rats, a suppression of thymic endocrine function, loss of weight and cellularity occurs. These changes are mainly caused by a weakening of index of proliferative activity. In animals that postoperatively received substitutive thyroxin hormonotherapy and courses of thymulin these disorders don't occur or they are not expressed significantly.

Unlabelled: BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE: Thyroid dysfunction in older adults often mimics the signs of aging, impacting metabolism and overall physiological balance. While age-related chronic conditions have been extensively studied, the relationship between thyroid function and frailty remains underexplored.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of thyroid dysfunction on frailty among individuals aged 65 years and older.

The effects of T4 are mainly manifested by positive ino- and chronotropism. The syndrome accompanying hypothyroidism in rabbits (impaired myocardial contractility and reduced ejection capacity) is caused by a deficiency of thyroid hormones - especially T4. The study group consisted of a total of 41 animals: 15 males and 26 females, ranging in age from 2 months to 8 years, with echocardiogram showing reduced fractional shortening (<30%), with normal results of heamatological and biochemical tests.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a significant public health challenge, contributing to considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide, which necessitates urgent preventive measures. Thyroid disorders, prevalent in many individuals, are intricately linked to metabolic health, yet studies on their relationship with T2DM yield inconsistent results-some suggesting an increased risk with abnormal thyroid hormone levels, while others indicate potential protective effects. This study investigated the association between changes in serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4) levels and the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Hyperthyroidism is a prevalent clinical endocrine disorder. Danggui Liuhuang Decoction (DGLHD), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine formula, has shown potential benefits for patients with hyperthyroidism in recent studies. However, the clinical efficacy and safety of DGLHD have not been systematically evaluated.

The correlation between thyroid hormone (TH) sensitivity and microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to explore the association between TH sensitivity and the risk of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), diabetic retinopathy (DR), and diabetic neuropathy (DNP) in euthyroid T2DM patients. This study included a total of 946 hospitalized T2DM patients and calculated their sensitivity to the TH index, and each patient completed screenings for DKD, DR, and DNP.
