Abstract

Unlabelled In women monitored for thyroid carcinoma, short-term stimulation with rhTSH induced an acute decrease in serum C-telopeptides of type-1 collagen and an increase in serum BALP levels without any effect on OPG production. The inhibitory effect of TSH on bone resorption occurred only in postmenopausal women who showed low BMD and a high bone turnover rate as an effect of L-thyroxine suppressive therapy. Introduction It has been recently shown that thyrotropin (TSH) has an inhibitory activity on skeletal remodeling in in vitro conditions. Here, we have aimed at evaluating whether TSH has similar effects in vivo. For this purpose, we have evaluated the sequential profile of serum bone metabolism markers during acute stimulation with recombinant human TSH (rhTSH) in thyroidectomized women monitored for thyroid carcinoma. Materials and methods The study group included 66 thyroidectomized patients, of whom 38 were premenopausal and 28 postmenopausal, who underwent routine rhTSH-assisted whole body radioactive iodine scanning for differentiated thyroid carcinoma. The patients were sequentially evaluated for TSH, free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), C-telopeptides of type-1 collagen (CrossLaps), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels during rhTSH stimulation. The samples were drawn just before and 2 and 7 days after the first administration of rhTSH. BMD was evaluated by ultrasonography at baseline. Seventy-one healthy women (41 prem…

  • These effects were independent of thyroid hormones because the women did not have a thyroid gland, and replacement therapy with L-thyroxine was stable during the study period.

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.
