Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the common diseases causing delayed intelligence development and growth retardation in children. In 2021, the ENDO-European Reference Network updated the practice guidelines for the diagnosis and management of congenital hypothyroidism. The guidelines give a comprehensive and detailed description of the screening, diagnosis, and management of congenital hypothyroidism in neonates. This article gives an interpretation of the guidelines in order to provide a reference for clinicians in China.

Introduction: The objective of our study was to determine the prevalence of a delayed thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) rise in infants with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) born in Indiana. Additionally, we sought to determine whether there are differences in clinical or demographic factors associated with this delayed cohort compared to those seen in infants detected early.

Methods: Newborn screen (NBS) results were collected for all cases of CH diagnosed between 2012-2022.

Molecular, genetic, and technological advances have led to increased knowledge regarding neonatal thyroid hormone metabolism disorders. Maternal and fetal hypothyroidism, which can cause psychomotor dysfunction syndromes or low IQ levels, can lead to brain damage, reduced fetal growth and incidental fetal death. The treatment of congenital hypothyroidism detected by screening programs performed during the neonatal period provides normalization of growth, IQ levels, and the physical, mental, and motor development of infants.
