There have been report concerning decrease of thyroid gland hormones concentrations in respiratory diseases. The aim of this study was to estimate the influence of severe respiratory failure (RF) of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients on blood serum thyroid hormone concentration. The tests were carried out in 22 ICU- patients with partial or total RF in whom the relationship between PO2, pH, PCO2 and TT3, TT4, FT3, rT3, FT4 was tested. The obtained data indicate that: 1. In patients with RF ESS takes place, 2. ESS seems to be related to the decrease of PO2; statistically significant correlation between TT3, FT3, rT3, and PO2 exist, 3. The increase of TT3 serum concentration directly correlates with the improvement of clinical state of patients. The lowest TT3 concentrations were observed in "ante mortem" patients. This fact suggest the prognostic value of TT3, TT4 concentration measurements in patients with RF.

Background: Perchlorate, nitrate, and thiocyanate are well-known sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) inhibitors that disturb iodide uptake at the thyroid, affecting thyroid function. However, the associations between NIS inhibitor exposure and thyroid function are not well summarized in humans.
Objective: We aimed to summarize associations between NIS inhibitor exposure and thyroid function markers and to identify key information gaps for future studies.

Department of Psychiatry, First Affiliated Hospital, Jinan University, Guangzhou, 510630, China.
Background: The clinical characteristics of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adolescents show notable gender-related differences, but the cause of these differences is still not understood. The current research concentrates on the changes in neurometabolism and neuroendocrine function, aiming to identify differences in endocrine function and brain metabolism between male and female adolescents with MDD.
Methods: A total of 121 teenagers diagnosed with MDD (43 males and 78 females) were enlisted as participants.

Background: Thyroid hormones (THs) are essential for brain development. Numerous studies have identified significant links between thyroid dysfunction and cognitive function. However, research on the significance and necessity of thyroid function tests in diagnosis of neurological disorders is limited and subject to controversy.

Background: As a class of synthetic chemicals, organophosphate esters (OPEs) were shown to have thyroid hormones (THs) disrupting potentials in animal studies, while epidemiological evidence on gestational exposure to OPEs and thyroid disruption is limited. Besides, assessment on the safety threshold of OPEs exposure during gestation is especially scarce.
Methods: Based on the Shanghai Minhang Birth Cohort Study, we measured maternal urine concentration of 8 OPE metabolites and THs levels in cord plasma and examined their associations using multiple linear regression and quantile g-computation (QGC) models.
