This study found that alopecia areata is significantly associated with thyroid autoimmunity, but not with clinical or subclinical thyroid disease, in the Pakistani population.

In this study, researchers found that the thyroxine receptor agonist TDM10842 accelerated the onset of anagen, a hair growth phase, in C3H mice, potentially through activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin and Hedgehog pathways, with Pclaf playing a key role in this process.

This case report describes a 70-year-old woman with pituitary resistance to thyroid hormone (PRTH) misdiagnosed as Graves disease, highlighting diagnostic challenges in managing this rare disorder.

This study concluded that thyroid atrophy, alopecia, and hyperkeratosis in sheep are associated with deficiencies in selenium and zinc in serum and liver.

This study observed that levothyroxine therapy in men with autoimmune hypothyroidism was less effective at reducing thyroid antibodies and hormone disruptions in those with early-onset androgenetic alopecia compared to those without hair loss.

This study found that inadequate ferritin levels, rather than haemoglobin levels, indicated iron deficiency in women with telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, and female pattern hair loss.

This report suggests a potential link between hyperprolactinemia and alopecia in women with autoimmune thyroid disease and emphasizes the importance of considering other causes in diagnosis.

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.

The authors clarified data overlap and corrected a figure error, apologizing for any confusion.

This research found that the widely used herbicide atrazine may alter Northern leopard frog development, affecting metamorphosis success, sex ratio, and hormone-related gene expression.

In this case report, researchers described how autoimmune thyroid disease can obscure primary hyperparathyroidism diagnosis, emphasizing the necessity of combining imaging, cytology, biochemical assessment, and parathyroid scintigraphy for accurate diagnosis.

This narrative review found a strong association between alopecia areata and autoimmune thyroid diseases, suggesting routine thyroid function and autoantibody screening could be beneficial for certain patients with extensive, recurrent, or early-onset alopecia areata.

This case study describes a 41-year-old woman with a solitary thyroid nodule who underwent successful right hemithyroidectomy after initial suspicion of malignancy from ultrasound, later confirmed as benign colloid goiter via FNAC, highlighting the importance of thorough evaluation in thyroid conditions.

In this case study, a 41-year-old woman with a solitary thyroid nodule was found to have a benign colloid goiter after biopsy, and she successfully underwent right hemithyroidectomy with good postoperative recovery and management of symptoms using various supportive medications.

In this case study, a 26-year-old woman with hypothyroidism experienced significant improvements in energy, emotional balance, and physical discomfort after individualized homeopathic treatment with Kalium carbonium, demonstrating the potential benefits of a holistic approach to care.

In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, researchers found that alopecia is more prevalent in younger patients, with alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris being the most common types among noncicatricial and cicatricial cases, respectively; additionally, thyroid abnormalities were frequently associated with both types of alopecia.

In this study, thyroid disorders were found to significantly affect physical and emotional well-being, with notable prevalence in married, urban, and non-working participants in South India.

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 study reports that women with hair loss had significantly lower levels of several biomarkers, including hemoglobin, iron, copper, selenium, vitamin D, vitamin B12, folate, and thyroid hormones, compared to healthy controls.

In this study, researchers found no significant differences in serum levels of ferritin, folate, vitamin B12, vitamin D, or thyroid function between patients with scarring alopecia and healthy controls, suggesting these factors may not play a major role in the disease's pathogenesis.

This study observed that pediatric patients with diffuse, non-scarring alopecia had significantly lower levels of zinc and folate compared to matched healthy controls, suggesting a possible link between these deficiencies and hair loss in children.

This study surveyed individuals and found that awareness and understanding of thyroid disorders, particularly symptom recognition and the importance of early detection, are low, highlighting the need for targeted public health initiatives to improve knowledge and management.

This study investigated cutaneous manifestations in thyroid disorder patients, finding that hypothyroid patients commonly experienced dry skin (67.83%) while warm skin (93.3%) and increased sweating prevailed in hyperthyroid patients, with urticaria being the most common autoimmune association among both groups.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum T3 and cortisol levels compared to healthy controls, although both remained within normal ranges, highlighting potential hormonal involvement in the condition. However, no significant differences were observed in T4 and TSH levels.

In this study, a 50-year-old woman with symptoms of thyroid dysfunction improved after receiving Ayurvedic treatment with Gandharvahastadi Kwath and lifestyle modifications, which alleviated symptoms like fatigue, muscle cramps, and dry skin, and normalized her TSH levels.

This report emphasizes the importance of considering thyroid tuberculosis in the differential diagnosis of cervical masses, highlighting the role of biopsy and histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This research observed that some hypothyroid patients on adequate levothyroxine therapy continue to experience symptoms like poor concentration and hair loss, with findings suggesting an elevated anti-TPO level increases the likelihood of such symptoms, despite normal TSH levels.

In this study, researchers found varying levels of multiple autoantibody types among thyroid disorder patients, with 84.84% of those with immunological hypothyroidism reporting symptoms like weight gain and lethargy, whereas 81.81% of those with immune hyperthyroidism experienced hair loss.
