Abstract

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Contradictory results regarding the optimal initial dose of levothyroxine in children with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) hamper the clinical management of these children during their early infancy. We explore the relationships between the initial dose of levothyroxine and endocrine control during the first 6 months and cognition at school age. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Fifty children with CH, 14 boys (10+/-3.1 years) and 36 girls (9.7+/-2.6 years), at the Pediatric Endocrine Unit of the Hospital Gregorio Marañón in Madrid were studied. Neurocognitive evaluation was carried out exploring alertness and inhibitory control. The number of episodes of overtreatment during the first 6 months, the initial dose of levothyroxine, etiology and sex were the predictor variables. RESULTS: Inhibitory control was significantly lower in children with CH than in controls. An interaction with gender and etiology was obtained. Alertness had an inverse relationship with the number of episodes of overtreatment with no interaction with gender or etiology. CONCLUSION: Episodes of overtreatment and not the initial dose of levothyroxine are a risk factor for deficit in alertness whereas subtle inhibitory control deficit seems to be a permanent problem with the current therapeutic approach.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
