Various low triiodothyronine (T3) states have been described in severe nonthyroidal diseases and associated with a poor prognosis cardiovascular disease patients. We assessed thyroid function patients respiratory failure from pulmonary disorders, needing invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation, order to evaluate the prognostic value of illness syndrome.We studied 32 consecutive acute acute-on-chronic failure. Measured variables upon admission included APACHE II score, ratio partial...
OBJECTIVE Lengthened ventricular repolarization, as assessed by the QT interval on electrocardiogram (ECG), can predispose to an increased risk of cardiac dysrhythmias; no data are available corrected for heart rate (QTc) in hyperthyroidism vivo . DESIGN and RR intervals from 24 h ambulatory ECG Holter recording were measured patients with again following pharmacological achievement stable euthyroidism at least 2 months. PATIENTS We enrolled a total 16 hyperthyroid Graves' disease, six males...
Abstract Context Subclinical thyroid dysfunction (ScTD) comprising subclinical hypothyroidism (SHypo) and hyperthyroidism (SHyper) has been associated with increased risk for cardiovascular events. Objective To assess associations between ScTD factors (cvRFs) according to age sex. Design Setting Pooled individual participant data analysis of large prospective cohort studies from the Thyroid Studies Collaboration. Participants Aged 18 103 years SHypo (TSH >4.50 mU/l, normal fT4) SHyper...
In an attempt to identify and quantify the sites of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) degradation, particularly lungs, a new tracer method study ANP metabolism in vivo humans was developed applied patients with left ventricular dysfunction. Thirteen male, normotensive, cardiac different degrees myocardial involvement were enrolled study. The protocol required constant infusion (3 patients) or bolus injection (10 125I-labeled just upstream right atrium blood sampling from (pulmonary artery,...
