This study examined the influence of thyroid markers (TSH and FT4) on cognition in a sample of rural-dwelling women. Data were analyzed from 81 women who were enrolled in an ongoing study of rural health, Project FRONTIER. Cognition was assessed with the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS). TSH levels were significantly related to the RBANS Attention Index, and FT4 levels were significantly related to the RBANS Language Index. The current study found that TSH and FT4 were differentially related to neurocognitive domains, with TSH being related only to measures of attention and FT4 to measures of language.

The expression of CCL17 and potential prognostic value on tumor immunity in thyroid carcinoma based on bioinformatics analysis.
Sci Rep

Although CCL17 has been reported to exert a vital role in many cancers, the related studies in the thyroid carcinoma have never reported. As a chemokine, CCL17 plays a positive role by promoting the infiltration of immune cells into the tumor microenviroment (TME) to influence tumor invasion and metastasis. Therefore, this study is aimed to investigate the association of CCL17 level with potential prognostic value on tumor immunity in the thyroid carcinoma (THCA) based on the bioinformatics analysis.

Hyperthyroidism is a common endocrine disease caused by the production of thyroid hormones in excessive amounts. Propylthiouracil (PTU) is one of the anti-thyroid drugs (ATD) used in the treatment of hyperthyroidism. Rectal PTU should be considered by physicians as a valuable option for managing hyperthyroidism as an alternative route of administration for patients who cannot tolerate oral medications.

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.

Background: The mechanisms underlying the complex relationship between autoimmune hypothyroidism and neurological disorders remain unclear. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of associations between alternative splicing, transcriptomics, and proteomics data and autoimmune hypothyroidism.
Methods: Splicing-Wide association studies (SWAS), proteome-wide association studies (PWAS), and transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) were used to identify genes and proteins that regulate autoimmune hypothyroidism within the brain axis.
