Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones01:20

Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones

4.1K
Low blood levels of the thyroid hormones — triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) — signal the hypothalamus to release the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). TRH then reaches the pituitary gland and stimulates the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) into the bloodstream.
Upon reaching the thyroid gland, TSH stimulates the follicular cells' active uptake of iodide ions from the blood. The ions diffuse to the apical surface of the cells and are oxidized to iodine. The...

Acute Pharyngitis

368
Introduction
Acute pharyngitis is the inflammation of the back of the throat (pharynx), commonly resulting in a sore throat. It is a frequently encountered condition that prompts individuals to seek medical advice.
Classification
Acute pharyngitis can be categorized based on its underlying cause:

Acute Pancreatitis II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

83
Acute pancreatitis presents a complex medical emergency characterized by rapid onset inflammation of the pancreas, demanding timely diagnosis and management to prevent complications. The condition primarily manifests through severe upper abdominal pain that often radiates to the back. This pain intensifies following the consumption of fatty foods. Accompanying symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, fever, dyspnea, cyanosis, and jaundice can vary in intensity but significantly...

Endocrine Signaling01:45

Endocrine Signaling

63.9K
Endocrine cells produce hormones to communicate with remote target cells found in other organs. The hormone reaches these distant areas using the circulatory system. This exposes the whole organism to the hormone but only those cells expressing hormone receptors or target cells are affected. Thus, endocrine signaling induces slow responses from its target cells but these effects also last longer.

Tonsillitis I: Introduction

198
Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, which are two lymphoid tissue masses at the back of the throat. This condition can cause discomfort and irritation in the throat.
Etiology
Three primary contributing factors have been identified.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Obstetrics
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Thyroid dysfunction significantly impacts pregnancy outcomes.
  • Graves' disease and thyroid autonomy are common causes of hyperthyroidism in pregnancy.
  • Subacute thyroiditis, though less common, poses unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review reported cases of subacute thyroiditis during pregnancy.
  • To discuss the diagnostic and management challenges associated with this condition.
  • To differentiate subacute thyroiditis from other thyroid disorders in pregnancy.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of reported cases of subacute thyroiditis in pregnancy.
  • Analysis of diagnostic criteria and treatment strategies.
  • Comparison with other thyroid dysfunctions in pregnancy.

Main Results:

  • Subacute thyroiditis can manifest as painful or painless thyrotoxicosis.
  • Systemic glucocorticoids are effective for painful subacute thyroiditis.
  • The hypothyroid phase can be misdiagnosed as permanent hypothyroidism.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis is essential to avoid misdiagnosis with other thyroid conditions.
  • Symptomatic management focused on the predominant thyroid abnormality is key.
  • Further research is needed to optimize care for subacute thyroiditis in pregnancy.
