Objective: To review current concepts in the management of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) in patients with non-specific symptoms.Data sources: A review of articles reported on overt hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism. Summary of review: In a patient with primary overt hypothyroidism, management is usually straightforward: treatment with thyroxine should be offered to anyone with characteristic clinical features, a raised serum thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration and a low serum thyroxine (T4) concentration. More difficult is the management of a patient with subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), in whom serum TSH is slightly raised (5-20 mIU/L) but T3, T4 levels are normal, and who is either asymptomatic or has only non-specific symptoms. Left untreated, some of these patients will eventually develop overt hypothyroidism. This review will address the use of thyroxine in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cmoshmcj.v13i3.21045

It is known that pernicious anaemia is sometimes associated with mental symptoms which improve following vitamin B12 therapy (Eilenberg, 1960; Holmes, 1956; Smith, 1960). Further, it has been pointed out that such mental symptoms can occur years before the development of anaemia and no definite relationship exists between them and the severity of anaemia (Smith, 1960). Cases have been described with a variety of psychiatric symptoms and low serum vitamin B12 levels without any neurological manifestation or abnormality of peripheral blood and bone marrow. Since pernicious anaemia is due to vitamin B12 deficiency it is suspected that B12 deficiency is responsible for the mental symptoms, and serum B12 assays have been advocated routinely in psychiatric patients (Strachan and Henderson, 1965; Hunter and Matthews, 1965).
