This review discusses the structural and functional aspects of β-thymosin in invertebrates and reports no new experimental findings.

This report highlights the successful treatment of skin and nail manifestations in a patient with primary hypothyroidism using levothyroxine, emphasizing the role of cutaneous symptoms in identifying thyroid disease.

This study observed that among rheumatoid arthritis patients, 22% had thyroid dysfunction, with hypothyroidism as the most common, and weight gain and cold intolerance were significant predictors.

This study examined the relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and alopecia areata in patients aged 2-65 and found no statistically significant association, despite a notable correlation between anti-TPO levels and disease duration.

This study reports that dogs with dermatoses linked to hypothyroidism displayed a significant incidence of specific haematological and biochemical alterations, such as elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels and reduced thyroid hormones, compared to healthy dogs, with Labrador Retrievers showing the highest breed predisposition.

This study concluded that myositis in the reported case was caused by T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia, not dermatomyositis.

This study suggests that thymosin beta 4 may regulate hair growth by influencing VEGF and MMP-2 levels through the Wnt/β-catenin/Lef-1 signaling pathway in mouse models.

This review explored the relationship between autoimmune thyroiditis and various autoimmune skin conditions, highlighting shared genetic markers and immunological mechanisms, such as disrupted immune tolerance and oxidative stress, which may contribute to the development of these disorders.

This study found that thyroid dysfunction was significantly more frequent in patients with alopecia areata compared to a control group, even when they lacked symptoms of thyroid issues, supporting the need for routine thyroid screening in this population.

This case report describes a 46-year-old female diagnosed with hypothyroidism, presenting with symptoms including severe hair loss, and treated with levothyroxine and supplements.

In this study, researchers reported that individuals from iodine-deficient regions have an increased risk of developing hypothyroidism from MDR-TB treatment regimens containing PAS and/or Prothionamide.

In this case report, a 70-year-old woman with a history of autoimmune hypothyroidism experienced alternating hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism over a decade, highlighting the potential role of thyrotropin receptor autoantibodies in these fluctuations.

This study demonstrated that thyroid hormone receptors play a crucial role in hair growth and skin health, as mice lacking these receptors showed impaired hair cycling and wound healing.

In this study, over-expression of FoxN1 in early life was associated with detrimental effects on thymic and skin epithelial development in mice.

This study describes three female islet transplant recipients who unexpectedly developed alopecia areata about 7 years post-transplant, with a possible link to immunosuppressive treatment regimens.

This study observed that individuals with autoimmune thyroid disease in Georgia had significantly higher frequencies of certain symptoms and Anti-TPO levels compared to controls, with no significant difference in vitamin D levels.

This case report highlights the diagnostic challenges of thyroid storm, emphasizing the importance of a thorough history and review of systems to differentiate it from other conditions.

This study found that 42% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus in India had thyroid dysfunction, predominantly hypothyroidism, which was independent of lupus disease activity.

Eyelash loss can be a sign of thyroid problems.

This study observed that pediatric bone marrow transplantation patients frequently experience various dermatological issues; mucositis and xeroderma were the most common.

This clinical case report identifies xanthomatous hypophysitis in a male patient, highlighting the mismatch between clinical symptoms and MRI findings, which led to a pituitary biopsy and accurate diagnosis instead of unnecessary surgery.

This case report describes a 36-year-old female patient with panhypopituitarism, experiencing severe adrenal insufficiency and thyroid hormone deficiency, which led to electrolyte imbalance, QT interval prolongation, and ventricular tachycardia; treatment stabilized her condition, underscoring the importance of hormonal evaluation in arrhythmia assessment.

This study found that applying topical thymidine dinucleotide (pTT) to newborn mice before UV exposure delayed and reduced melanoma development compared to untreated controls.

This case report describes the first known instance of a patient with myotonic dystrophy presenting with type I diabetes, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and follicular variant papillary thyroid cancer, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

This study by Dr. Manka and colleagues reported that thyroid hormones play a significant role in regulating hepatic stellate cells, influencing liver fibrosis progression via TGFβ signaling. They found that TRα signaling might enhance scar-free tissue regeneration, offering potential pathways for targeted liver fibrosis treatments.

A woman experienced fluctuating thyroid conditions and eye disease, but her symptoms improved with treatment.

In this case study, a Labrador dog diagnosed with hypothyroidism and treated with Thyroxine sodium, along with other supportive therapies, recovered completely from a generalized skin infection and alopecia within three months.

Hair loss is often linked to thyroid problems, especially in women and older people, and screening for thyroid issues is advised for those with hair loss.

This piece discusses the conditions of three children with disparate symptoms—suggesting silent aspiration, exogenous androgen exposure, and long QT syndrome—and emphasizes comprehensive assessment and history for correct diagnosis and management.
