.... Triglyceride levels were significantly higher in participants with hyperthyrotropinemia than in those with normal thyroid function (p = 0.011). Baseline TSH was significantly correlated with triglyceride levels (r = 0.261, p < 0.001), but not with age, anthropometric, or laboratory variables. Of the 142...

...David W. Cooke; Sakkubai Naidu; Leslie Plotnick; Gary D. Berkovitz We have identified subtle abnormalities of thyroid function and glucose control in patients with Rett syndrome. The mean serum total thyroxine (T 4 ) concentration was significantly lower in a group of subjects with Rett syndrome...
