A novel chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) of total thyroxin (TT4) with the acridinium ester of DMAE x NHS [2',6'-dimethyl-4'-(n-succinimidyloxycarbonyl) phenyl-10-methyl-acridinium-9-carboxylate methosulfate] labeled has been developed. In our method, microwells were coated with anti-T4 monoclonal antibody (McAb) and DMAE x NHS synthesized by our laboratory was conjugated with streptavidin (SA). T4-BSA was conjugated with biotin-N-hydroxysuccinimide (B x NHS), T4-BSA- B x NHS and the T4 in the standard or sample competitively react with anti-T4 McAb. Streptavidin-biotin separation and enhanced techniques were applied in this assay. The presented approach shows many excellent characteristics, particularly, rapid assay process and high detection sensitivity.

We aimed to evaluate the effects of prepartum supplementation of different I sources (Ascophyllum nodosum [ASCO] meal and ethylenediamine dihydroiodide [EDDI]) on colostrum yield of cows, and blood concentrations of glucose, BHB, and thyroid hormones and growth of dairy calves. Forty multiparous Holstein cows were blocked by lactation number and expected calving date and assigned to 1 of 4 treatments 28 d before parturition: (1) EDDI supplemented (11 mg/d) to a basal diet to meet the NRC (2001) I concentration of 0.5 mg of I/kg of DMI (control = CON [0 g/d of ASCO meal]; actual I concentration = 0.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the association of serum iodine concentration (SIC) with thyroid function-associated parameters in pregnant women in mild iodine deficient area, and explore its potential to predict individual iodine nutrition status in pregnant women.
Methods: A total of 741 pregnant women undergoing prenatal examinations in their second trimester at the Women's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, from March 2021 to May 2022 were finally recruited into the study. Venous blood and morning urine were collected.

Background: Shift work is associated with an increased risk of liver injury. However, whether and how shift work alters liver function remains unclear.
Aims: This study aimed to investigate the associations between shift work and the liver function parameters, and further explore the mediating roles of thyroid function indicators.

Unlabelled: This study aims to determine the incidence, clinical course, and risk factors of hypothyroidism following cardiac catheter (CC) in infants with congenital heart diseases (CHD). This prospective study involved 115 patients with CHD, all aged 3 years or younger, who underwent CC, as well as 100 healthy age- and sex-matched controls. Baseline thyroid function tests (TFTs) were conducted for both the patients and controls.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLittle is known about the impact of environmental pollution on thyroid function in the non-occupationally exposed population of Kazakhstan. This study aimed to investigate serum levels of thyroxine (T4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies in the environmentally exposed population of Kazakhstan in relation to symptoms of anxiety. A total of 1,388 nominally healthy individuals residing in areas exposed to three major types of environmental pollution prevalent in Kazakhstan-non-ferrous metallurgy, condensate gas extraction, and activities of the Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site (SNTS)-were enrolled.
