3. Desiccated thyroid extract - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desiccated_thyroid_extract

   Desiccated Thyroid became a commercial treatment option in 1934 with Westhroid, [citation needed]. In the early 1960s, desiccated thyroid hormones (thyroid extract) began to be replaced by levothyroxine (synthetic T4), or by combinations of T4 and T3. Replacement occurred faster in the United Kingdom than in North America, but by the 1980s more ...

4. Thyroid hormones - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormones

   The thyroid system of the thyroid hormones T 3 and T 4 [1] Thyroid hormones are two hormones produced and released by the thyroid gland, triiodothyronine (T 3) and thyroxine (T 4). They are tyrosine-based hormones that are primarily responsible for regulation of metabolism. T 3 and T 4 are partially composed of iodine, derived from food. [2]

   Prescribing thyroxine to treat this may lead to lifelong thyroid overtreatment. [2] Hyperthyroidism may be assumed due to decreased TSH and a transient fT4 increase. In some cases, this can be distinguished from NTIS by a thyroid ultrasound, which is commonly available in the hospital intensive care unit. [2]

   Thyroid's secretory capacity (G T, also referred to as thyroid's incretory capacity, maximum thyroid hormone output, T4 output or, if calculated from serum levels of thyrotropin and thyroxine, as SPINA-GT [a]) is the maximum stimulated amount of thyroxine that the thyroid can produce in a given time-unit (e.g. one second).
