The paper presents the results of a study of the lipid spectrum of breast milk and blood serum in 48 women with different functional activity of the thyroid gland. A decrease in certain lipid fractions in blood serum and in breast milk in women with altered thyroid function was established. A definite regulating effect of the thyroid gland on the lipid composition of breast milk and blood serum was established.

Background/Aim. The value of ultrasound in functional disorders can be significant. That is why the question arises on the use of ultrasound examination of thyroid gland and its echogenicity as a screening method in early detection of disfunctions, of the gland primarily subclinical and clinical forms of hypothyreoidism. The objective of this paper was to determine antibodies of thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) and thyroglobuline antibodies (anti-TG) increase frequency in relation to the character of ultrasound echogenicity as well as to estimate the frequency of subclinically and clinically obvious hypothyreoidism in relation to the changed echogenicity. Methods. Study included 656 patients in outpatient clinic during 2014. All examinees underwent ultrasound examination of thyroid gland, the blood was taken for determination of free thyroxine (FT4), thyroidstimulating hormone (TSH), anti-TPO and anti-TG. The patients were divided into two groups; the group A with normal echogenicity of thyroid gland tissue, and the group B with decreased echogenicity. The group B was divided into two subgroups, B1 with a mildly decreased and B2 with significantly decreased echogenicity. Results. TPO antibody, TSH and TG antibody positivity and their mean values in the group B were significantly higher, as well as in subgroups B1 and B2, in relation to the group A (p < 0.001). In the group A, only 4 (1%) examinees were indicated with subclinical hypothyreoidism. In the group B, the sublinical hypothyreoidism was indicated in 42, while the clinical hypothyreoidism was indicated in 16 examinees. Fifty-eight (25%) examinees suffered from thyroid gland altered function. In the subgroup B1, 16 examinees were indicated with subclinical and 4 with clinical hypothyreoidism. Twenty (11%) examinees suffered from altered thyroid function. In the group B2, the subclinical hypothyreoidism was found in 26 examinees, while the clinical hypothyreoidism was found in 12. Thirty-eight (76%) examinees suffered from altered thyroid function. Conclusion. The ultrasound screening of thyroid gland plays an important role in early detection of thyroid disfunction, i.e., sublinical and clinical hypothyreoidism. Decreased ultrasound echogenicity represents the significant marker of altered thyroid gland function. In these persons we have determined the high percentage of subclinical and clinical hypothyreoidism frequency.

SummaryThis paper addresses the issue of (recurrent) mania in relation to an increased T4-value, whether or not influenced by lithium. Lithium has an anti-TSH-effect on the thyroid gland by inhibiting the intracellular enzyme adenylate cyclase. This might cause hypothyroidism. Moreover, lithium is also known to have a direct stabilizing effect on (behavioral manifestations) of dopamine receptor supersensitivity.The hypothesis regarding the relation between thyroid function and affective disturbances is that the altered thyroid function may cause a change in the availability of the central dopamine receptors. Dopamine is known to be able to cause a manic state. TSH and TRH are also involved in this mechanism. It is, therefore, very likely that an increased thyroid function, whether or not caused by discontinuation of lithium-therapy, could induce a (recurrent) mania.

ABSTRACT Several drugs from the morphine, pethidine and morphinan series were evaluated with respect to their action on the pituitary secretion of thyrotrophin (TSH). This action was measured by the release and the uptake of 131I by the thyroid gland of mice. Daily administration of 500 μg of morphine, codeine, dihydromorphinone, levorphan, dextrorphan or meperidine significantly depressed the uptake of 131I by the thyroid gland within five days. Single injections of 500 μg of either dihydromorphinone or levorphan increased the thyroidal uptake of 131I The thyroids of hypophysectomized mice, pretreated with 131I and thyroxine, failed to respond to injections of these drugs. Daily administration of these drugs for five days failed to change pituitary content of TSH from the control level, or to effect a change in the turn-over rate of exogenous radiothyroxine. These results suggest that these drugs do not exert direct action on the thyroid but act on thyroid function through their effect on the hypothalamus-pituitary axis.

Abstract. Thyroid function and thyroid gland volume, ultrasonically determined, were investigated in 27 hyperthyroid patients with solitary autonomous thyroid nodules before and during one year after 131I-treatment. Total thyroid volume decreased gradually from 40.9 ± 3.5 ml (mean ± sem) before treatment to 23.9 ± 1.8 ml (P < 0.001) at 3 months after 131I-treatment. No further change was observed. All but two patients received only one dose of 131I, and in spite of a significant decrease also of the non-adenoma side of the gland, none became hypothyroid. We conclude that 131I-therapy has an important place in the treatment of solitary autonomous thyroid nodules since all our patients became euthyroid within 3 months, only 2 of 27 patients needed more than one dose of 131I, no cases of hypothyroidism occurred, and thyroid volume was substantially decreased.

Disturbance of the thyroid function is often detected in patients with different profiles. A special feature of patients with chronic kidney  disease is the higher incidence of various thyroid function  disturbances, especially hypothyroidism. It is known that in patients  with chronic kidney disease (CKD) iodine excretion from the body is  violated, since normally 90% of iodine is excreted in urine.  Accumulation of high concentrations of inorganic iodine leads to the  formation of the Wolf-Chaikoff effect: suppression of iodine  organization in the thyroid gland and disruption of the thyroid  hormones synthesis. Peripheral metabolism of thyroid hormones is  also disturbed, namely, deiodinase type I activity is suppressed and  peripheral conversion of T4 into T3 is inhibited (so-called low T3  syndrome). Therefore, patients with CKD are often diagnosed with  hypothyroidism, and the origin of hypothyroidism is not always  associated with the outcome of autoimmune thyroiditis. The article  presents an overview of a large number of population studies of  thyroid gland dysfunction in patients with CKD, as well as  experimental data specifying the pathogenetic mechanisms of  thyroid dysfunction in patients with CKD. Therapeutic tactics are still  not regulated. However, in a number of studies, replacement therapy with thyroid hormones in patients with CKD had some advantages.

Целью научной работы является изучение структуры заболеваний щитовидной железы у больных сахарным диабетом 1 типа. В данной статье мы ретроспективно проанализировали 972 историй болезни больных детей с СД 1 типа, находившихся на стационарном лечении в ДГКБ №2 г. Алматы (Казахстан) в период с 2014 по 2019 гг. Были изучены и оценены показатели физического развития, объективные данные (кожные покровы, ЧСС, АД, пальпация ЩЖ), лабораторно - уровней гормонов ТТГ, свТ4, свТ3, а/т к ТПО, а/т к ТГ в сыворотки крови, инструментально - УЗИ ЩЖ. Всего за 2014-2019 гг. через отделение эндокринологии ДГКБ №2 прошли 972 детей с диагнозом СД 1 типа. Большинство детей (382 человек, 79,9%) имели стаж болезни СД до 5 лет. 88 детей (18,5%) со стажем от 5 до 10 лет, 8 человек (1,7%) страдали СД более 10 лет. СД1 в основном был диагностирован в возрасте 7-12 лет (245-51,3%), меньше всего выявили СД 1 типа у детей до 3 лет (21 - 4,4%). Из общего количества пациентов с СД1 (972) было обследовано на функцию ЩЖ 478 детей (49,2%). Среди них было выявлено 319 детей с дисфункцией ЩЖ, что составляет 66,7%. Так, за 2014 год из 92 детей - 7 (7,6%), обследованных на функцию щитовидной железы, в результате чего было выявлено 6 (85,7%) детей с дисфункцией щитовидной железы. С каждым годом росло количество детей, которых направляли на обследование ЩЖ, так в сравнении с 2014 годом, когда из 92 детей - 7 (7,6%) были обследованы на функцию щитовидной железы, в 2019 году были обследованы уже 222 (92,1%) детей из 241. Симптомы как гиперфункции, так и гипофункции ЩЖ, особенно их субклинические варианты протекают под маской других заболевании и не сразу обнаруживаются, исходя из этого следует сразу обследовать на функцию ЩЖ при поступлении и в дальнейшим их наблюдать в динамике. В ходе исследования дисфункция щитовидной железы диагностирована у 319 (67,7%) пациентов, что должно привлечь внимание не только эндокринологов, но и врачей общей практики, педиатров и настроить их на прицельный поиск этой патологии и своевременную коррекцию гипотиреоза или другой патологии ЩЖ при его наличии The purpose of this research is to study the structure of thyroid diseases in patients with type 1 diabetes. In this article, we retrospectively analyzed 972 case histories of sick children with type 1 diabetes who were treated in the children's city clinical hospital No. 2 in Almaty (Kazakhstan) in the period from 2014 to 2019. Physical development indicators, objective data (skin, heart rate, blood pressure, thyroid palpation), laboratory levels of TSH, thyroxine, triiodothyronine, antibodies to thyroperoxidase, antibodies to thyroglobulin in blood serum, instrumental ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland were studied and evaluated. In total, in 2014-2019, 972 children with a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus passed through the endocrinology Department of the children's city clinical hospital No. 2.The majority of children (382 people, 79.9%) had a history of diabetes up to 5 years. 88 children (18.5%) with experience from 5 to 10 years, 8 people (1.7%) had diabetes for more than 10 years. Type 1 diabetes was mainly diagnosed at the age of 7-12 years (245-51. 3%), the least detected type 1 diabetes in children under 3 years (21 - 4.4%). Out of the total number of patients with type 1 diabetes (972), 478 children (49.2%) were examined for thyroid function. Among them, 319 children with thyroid dysfunction were identified, which is 66.7%. So, in 2014, out of 92 children, 7 (7.6%) were examined for thyroid function, as a result of which 6 (85.7%) children had thyroid dysfunction. Every year, the number of children referred for thyroid examination increased, so compared to 2014, when out of 92 children - 7 (7.6%) were examined for thyroid function, in 2019, 222 (92.1%) children out of 241 were examined. Symptoms of both hyperfunction and hypofunction of the thyroid gland, especially their subclinical variants, occur under the guise of other diseases and are not immediately detected, so you should immediately investigate the function of the thyroid gland at admission and further observe them in dynamics. During the study, thyroid dysfunction was diagnosed in 319 (67.7%) patients, which should attract the attention of not only endocrinologists, but also General practitioners, pediatricians and set them up for a targeted search for this pathology and timely correction of hypothyroidism or other thyroid pathology if it is present.

INTRODUCTION: The Thyroid gland is unique among the endocrine glands. It is the largest of all the endocrine glands and it is supercial in location. It is the only gland which is easily approachable to direct physical, cytological and histopathological examination. The thyroid gland is affected by a variety of pathological lesions that are manifested by various morphologies including developmental, inammatory, hyperplastic and neoplastic pathology which are quiet common in the clinical practice. AIM OFTHE STUDY:In this study, we aimed to assess the cytological ndings of palpable thyroid nodules in conjunction with thyroid hormonal prole of the patient. To study the incidence in relevance to age, sex in various categories of thyroid lesions. MATERIALS & METHODS: Study Design: Institutional based Cross-sectional Study. Duration of study: January 2019 to August 2020. Source of data: Patients presenting to the OPD and admitted in the In-patient ward at Darbhanga Medical College, Bihar. Place of study: Department of Pathology, Darbhanga Medical College and Hospital, Laheriasarai, Bihar. Sample Size: 60 patients of enlarged thyroid gland. RESULTS & OBSERVATIONS: We found that the 53.3% Patients are in euthyroid state. Nodular goitre is the most common nding. In the present study among 60 patients, Nodular goiter accounts for 83.3 % of all cases; 41.7% of them were in euthyroid state, 21.7 % in hypothyroid state , 8.3 % in subclinical hypothyroid and remaining 11.7 % in hyperthyroid state . SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION: FNAC together with thyroid function test (TFT) analysis leads to early and accurate diagnosis of various thyroid diseases and reduces surgical intervention. The study showed that FNAcytologic diagnosis cannot be used to predict thyroid function using total serum T4, T3 and TSH concentrations. Measurement of TSH, free T4, and free T3 would be preferable
