Background: Previous studies showed sex differences in the prevalences of both major depressive disorder (MDD) and subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH). This study aimed to further compare the prevalence and correlates of moderate-to-severe SCH between male and female Chinese MDD patients.
Methods: A total of 1706 first-episode drug naïve Chinese patients with MDD were recruited.

In vertebrates, glucocorticoids can be upregulated in response to both psychosocial and energetic stressors, making it difficult to identify the cause of elevated glucocorticoid concentrations when both types of stressors are present. This problem has been particularly challenging in studies of social dominance rank in wild animals. In contrast to glucocorticoids, thyroid hormone concentrations are largely unaffected by psychosocial stressors and therefore offer a better estimate of energetic challenges.

Objective: To explore the correlation between vitamin D levels, related endocrine/metabolic factors, and the risk of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) in children and adolescents, and to assess whether vitamin D levels are associated with SCFE severity.
Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted from March 2014 to October 2023 in Shengjing hospital. Patients diagnosed with SCFE were categorized as the SCFE group.

Background: The imbalance of hormone levels in the body is closely related to the occurrence and progression of schizophrenia, especially thyroid hormones.
Aim: To study the relationship between triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), free T3 (FT3), free T4 (FT4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and schizophrenia.
Methods: In this study, 100 schizophrenia patients were selected from our hospital between April 2022 and April 2024.

Previous epidemiologic studies examining thyroid function and chemical exposures have typically focused on a single or a limited number of chemical classes, often neglecting the effects of chemical mixtures. This study addressed this gap by exploring the associations between exposure to hundreds of chemicals and thyroid function using an exposome-wide association study (ExWAS) approach and National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data. We analyzed data from three NHANES cycles (2007-2008, 2009-2010, 2011-2012), which include measures of thyroid function (free and total triiodothyronine [T3], free and total thyroxine [T4], thyroid-stimulating hormone [TSH]) and chemical biomarker concentrations from 9,082 participants.
