Newborn screening for primary congenital hypothyroidism is part of the U.S. Recommended Uniform Screening Panel (1,2). Untreated congenital hypothyroidism can result in cognitive impairment and growth complications (decreased height/length). Initial newborn screening for congenital hypothyroidism is typically performed 24-48 hours after birth. Fourteen states, including Utah, perform a routine second screen at approximately 2 weeks of age.* During 2010-2016, a total of 359,432 infants in Utah were screened for congenital hypothyroidism, and 130 cases were diagnosed; among these, 98 had an abnormal first screen, and 25 had an abnormal second screen (seven infants were excluded because of missing data). A retrospective examination of Utahs screening data indicated that 20% of congenital hypothyroidism cases could not have been efficiently identified by a single screen alone. This study highlights the utility of a two-screen process and demonstrates that differential cutoff values for the first ...

Congenital Hypothyroidism usually results when a baby is born without a thyroid gland, but there are many other causes of this disorder. Congenital Hypothyroidism is treated the same as hypothyroidism, with thyroid replacement hormone, Levothyroxine. It is crucial for these babies to be diagnosed within a few days of birth by a newborn screening (heel prick) test as any delay can lead to loss of IQ. As babies grow, monitoring is necessary to adjust Levothyroxine dosage and to monitor growth and development. Ensuring Pathology tests are performed in the correct manner at essential.. Children who have been diagnosed with Congenital Hypothyroidism are treated by a Paediatric Endocrinologist with regular monitoring and testing through their developing years.. ...

BackgroundCongenital hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the most common preventable causes of mental retardation. One important challenge in understanding the epidemiology of CH is that some newborns will have transient CH, a temporary depression of thyroid hormone concentrations that can last from several days to several months. Studies from other countries have reported that 10 to 15% of children treated for CH ultimately prove not to need treatment past 3 years of age to maintain normal hormone concentrations, and thus have transient hypothyroidism. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of permanent and transient congenital hypothyroidism in Fayoum, Egypt. MethodsCases detected by Fayoum neonatal screening program (NSP) between January 2003 and December 2011, and followed up at health insurance center were included. Permanent or transient CH was determined using results of thyroid function tests. ResultsOf the 248 patients diagnosed primarily with CH by NSP; 204 (82.3%) patients

Context: Mutations in the DUOX2 gene have been associated with transient or permanent congenital hypothyroidism due to a dyshormonogenic defect. Objective: This study aimed to verify the prevalence of DUOX2 mutationsandthe associated clinical features in children selected by criteria supporting a partial iodide organification defect (PIOD). Patients and Methods: Thirty children with PIOD-like criteria were enrolled and genotyped. A detailed clinical characterization was undertaken together with the functional analysis of the DUOX2 variations and the revision of the clinical and molecular data of the literature. Results: In this large selected series, the prevalence of the DUOX2 mutations was high (37%). We identified 12 missense variants, one splice site, and three frameshift DUOX2 mutations. Functional analyses showed significant impairment of H2O2 generation with five missense variants. Stopcodon mutants were shown to totally abolish DUOX2 activity by nonsense-mediated RNA decay, exon ...

The purpose of this study was to estimate the incidence of cases with transient and permanent CH in Hamadan, Iran. In our study, the incidence of CH is found to be 1/1250 of live birth. Of the 164 patients 105 cases (64 %) were proven to have permanent CH and 59 cases (36%) had transient hypothyroidism. The frequency of CH as well as transient hypothyroidism was relatively high in our study. Our data confirm the findings of previous studies regarding the high prevalence of hypothyroidism in Iran (15-18). For example, a meta-analysis study by Veisani et al. (18) revealed that the overall incidence of CH in Iran is 2/1000 of live births. Since the most common etiology of CH was dyshormonogenesis as indicated in the studies conducted by Hashemipour et al. (9) and Karamizadeh et al. (19) in Iran, a relatively high rate of parental consanguinity (25%) among infant with congenital hypothyroidism could account for the increased incidence of CH in our region. In support of the previous data, we also ...

Anaesthetic management of the premature infant is a challenge. This is owing to the immaturity of his or her organ systems and the possible presence of sequelae of premature birth, such as broncho pulmonary dysplasia, apnoea, patent ductus arteriosus and intra ventricular haemorrhage. The premature infant is at risk of developing postoperative apnoea, hypothermia and hypoglycaemia until his or her post gestational age is more than 60 weeks. Conditions such as congenital bilateral cataract and congenital hypothyroidism may be associated with other birth defects and syndromes. Recommendations for early cataract surgery may necessitate an aesthetising premature infants with post conceptional ages less than 60 weeks, or those who have had recently diagnosed medical conditions, such as hypothyroidism. We describe the anaesthetic considerations in a, so far, unreported scenario of a premature infant with bilateral congenital cataract and congenital hypothyroidism who presented for cataract surgery.

Introduction Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is common, affecting between 1:3,000 and 4,000 newborn infants. Unrecognized or inadequately treated, CH leads to mental retardation. Newborn screening has made it possible to identify affected infants at a very early age, allowing thyroid therapy to be initiated usually within two weeks of birth. As a result of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, many children with CH have normal cognitive development. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the European Society for Pediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) have published guidelines to assist physicians in the appropriate evaluation and treatment of children with CH. Although early detection, correct diagnosis and timely treatment are critical to facilitate the best outcomes, little is known about provider practices when confronted with infants with congenital hypothyroidism. We, therefore, conducted a survey of pediatric endocrine providers to categorize beliefs and clinical practices. Methods An on-line

All the Italian Centres in charge of screening, diagnosis, and follow-up of infants with congenital hypothyroidism participate in the Italian National Registry of affected infants, which performs the nationwide surveillance of the disease. It was established in 1987 as a program of the Health Ministry and is coordinated by the Istituto Superiore di Sanità. The early diagnosis performed by the nationwide newborn screening programme, the prompt treatment and the appropriate clinical management of the patients carried out by the Follow-up Centres, and the surveillance of the disease performed by the National Register of infants with congenital hypothyroidism are the components of an integrated approach to the disease which has been successfully established in our country. The aim of the Register is to monitor efficiency and effectiveness of neonatal screening, to provide disease surveillance and to allow identification of possible aetiological risk factors for the disease. During the past twenty years the

With regard to blood draws, I have been quoted as saying it gets easier…. Its true. It gets easier. That doesnt mean they arent still hard.. Yesterday, both of my boys needed to go in for their routine blood draw to check their thyroid levels, as do all children with congenital hypothyroidism. Now that they are older, they only go every 6 months (unless there is an issue, then more frequently). Just enough time to forget they have to ever go again. I picked up my oldest from school. My youngest was already in the car. With my youngest, the less time he has to ponder the thought of having his blood drawn, the better. At the last draw, they both did well. No tears. This is a victory. For any other parent who has a child with a chronic illness (like congenital hypothyroidism), you know what I mean. You too have endured kicking, screaming, biting, fighting and everything else your child has thrown at you and the other people in the lab. You too have watched your child meltdown at the mere ...

Hypothyroidism from iodide transport deficiency is a rare disease, especially when found in two affected siblings. Treatment with high doses of iodide has been recommended, but no long term results have been reported. Two siblings with congenital hypothyroidism due to total failure to transport iodide have been followed up during twelve and a half years of treatment with oral potassium iodide. Iodine doses varied between 10.3 and 22 mg/day, and serum total iodine concentrations between 100 and 210 micrograms/dl. Total triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) and free T4 were in the normal range during the time of study. Basal thyroid stimulating hormones (TSH) and maximum TSH response to thyrotrophin releasing hormone (TRH) were also in the range of normal values. These data along with clinical findings confirmed the potential usefulness of iodine in hypothyroidism due to complete iodide transport defect.. ...

Subjects who are heterozygous for thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) gene mutations present various phenotypes that range from euthyroid to hyperthyrotropinemia. Similarly, heterozygous dual oxidase 2 (DUOX2) gene mutations result in variable phenotypes, such as transient congenital hypothyroidism, subclinical hyperthyrotropinemia, and euthyroid in children. Here, we describe an 8-year-old boy who had normal newborn screening results, but who developed nonautoimmune hypothyroidism at the age of 1 year and 8 months of age. He was heterozygous for previously reported R450H-TSHR mutation and heterozygous for a novel double mutant allele A1323T-DUOX2 and L1343F-DUOX2. He needed levothyroxine (l-T4) replacement therapy to keep serum TSH levels within normal limits; l-T4 dose of 2.01-2.65 μg/kg/day corresponded to the dose taken by children homozygous for R450H-TSHR and by children with permanent congenital hypothyroidism. Therefore, the coexistence of a heterozygous TSHR mutation and a ...

We aim to determine long-term intellectual outcome of adolescents with early high-dose treated congenital hypothyroidism (CH). Sixty-three prospectively followed children with CH were assessed at age of 14 y with the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised and compared with 175 healthy controls. Median age at onset of treatment was 9 d (range 5-18 d) and median starting dose of levothyroxine (L-T4) was 14.7 microg/kg/d (range 9.9-23.6 microg/kg/d). Full-scale intelligence quotient (IQ) was significantly lower than in controls after adjustment for socioeconomic status (SES) and gender (101.7 versus 111.4; p , 0.0001). Children with athyreosis had a lower performance IQ than those with dysgenesis (adjusted difference 7.6 IQ scores, p , 0.05). Lower initial thyroxine (T4) levels correlated with poorer IQ (r = 0.27, p = 0.04). Lower SES was associated with poorer IQ, in particular in children with CH (interaction, p = 0.03). Treatment during childhood was not related to IQ at age 14 y. ...

When the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone it is called hypothyroidism. Congenital hypothyroidism is when the disorder is present in a baby at birth. If not treated, it can lead to serious health problems. The thyroid is a gland. Its located in the neck, just below the voice box. The thyroid gland makes thyroid hormone. This hormone helps control the metabolism. This is the rate at which every part of the body functions. Thyroid hormone keeps the metabolism at a healthy pace. This helps the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs work well. A normal metabolism also helps ensure a healthy temperature, heart rate, energy level, and growth rate. If a baby does not make enough thyroid hormone, it can cause serious problems such as mental disability, growth delays, or loss of hearing. ...

Age- and method-dependent plasma TSH reference intervals are essential for the diagnosis and management of congenital hypothyroidism. However, accurate reference intervals for plasma TSH have not been adequately defined due to the difficulties in obtaining samples from a healthy paediatric population. To overcome the difficulties in generating such intervals we estimated method-dependent plasma TSH upper-reference intervals by determining the blood spot TSH upper-reference interval from newborn blood spot TSH screening data (N = 10,697) and then derived method-dependent conversion factors for blood spot TSH to plasma TSH concentration from paired-blood spot and plasma TSH measurements. The upper reference interval for blood spot TSH of 3.04 mU/L was obtained from the 97.5th centile of the selected data. Using experimentally-derived conversion factors, estimates of plasma TSH upper reference intervals of 7.6, 6.3, 7.3, 8.3 and 6.5 mU/L were obtained for the Siemens Centaur, Abbott Architect, ...

Objectives: -To determine children diagnosed with central congenital hypothyroidism (CCH) by a screening program using TSH and total T4 between May 2016 and January 2019.. -To analyze the characteristics of the disease in these children.. Material and Methods: During the time of the study, 14.743 newborns have been screened. Cut-off points are used for TSH ≥10MU/ml and T4 6 and 20 mg/dl as lower and upper limits.. When the result was positive, a second sample was performed on filter paper and if the second sample was also positive, the patient was sent to the Pediatric Endocrinology Unit to confirm the results. Diagnosed of CCH was made with the combination of low FT4 and inappropriate low TSH. If the patient was diagnosed with CCH, hormonal studies, skull MRI and genetic analyses were performed.. Results: For total T4 values, first simple screening was positive in 112 patients (076% of total). Of these cases, the second sample continued to be positive in 17 cases (011% of the total), in ...

Congenital hypothyroidism is inadequate thyroid hormone production in newborn infants. This can occur because of an anatomic defect in the gland, an inborn error of thyroid metabolism, or iodine deficiency.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the vocal characteristics of a group of children with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) and the association of these characteristics with the childrens clinical, laboratory, and therapeutic profiles. MATHERIAL AND METHODS: Observational, analytical, cross-sectional study including 200 prepubertal children, of whom 100 had CH (study group [SG]) and 100 had no CH (control group [CG]). The following parameters were evaluated: 1) history (identification, complaints, and interfering variables), 2) auditory-perceptual and acoustic evaluation (samples analyzed by a group of specialists, and objectively by a computer program), 3) self-assessment scores in the Pediatric Voice-Related Quality-of-Life (PVRQoL) survey, 4) laryngological evaluation (presence or absence of laryngeal lesions and data regarding glottal closure), and 5) medical records (CH etiology, age at treatment initiation, disease severity at diagnosis, treatment quality, and thyroid function tests on the day of the ...

The zebrafish has recently emerged as a new, genetically tractable model for investigating the molecular mechanisms underpinning thyroid organogenesis and function (Alt et al., 2006; Elsalini and Rohr, 2003; Guillot et al., 2016; McMenamin et al., 2014; Trubiroha et al., 2018; Wendl et al., 2002). Although a recent report described the larval phenotype associated with CRISPR generated bi-allelic loss-of-function duox mutations in F0 zebrafish (Trubiroha et al., 2018), there have been no prior reports describing the phenotypic consequences of fully characterised duox alleles in adult zebrafish. This is despite the fact that mutations in DUOX2 and DUOX1 have been shown to be associated with congenital hypothyroidism in humans for more than a decade (Aycan et al., 2017; Donkó et al., 2014; Jin et al., 2014; Johnson et al., 2007; Kizys et al., 2017; Tonacchera et al., 2009; Vigone et al., 2005). Here, we describe a comprehensive assessment of the adult phenotypes associated with homozygosity of two ...

I do not connect stunted thumbs and congenital hypothyroidism, but maybe another reader can help. Regarding the blood hormone levels, certainly it seems that the patient has been under excessive thyroid hormone dosage, and needs to be reduced gradually to a level that keeps the TSH preferrably around 1-1.5, and the freeT4 in the high normal range. It probably will take many months for the pituitary to return to normal as you lower the dose. Regarding the future, I guess you wait and see. If the patient was untreated for 18 months after birth, that suggests a major developmental problem unless there was in fact significant endogenous thyroid hormone production at that time..

CONTEXT: Patients with thyroidal congenital hypothyroidism (CH-T) born in The Netherlands in 1981-1982 showed persistent intellectual and motor deficits during childhood and adulthood, despite initiation of T(4) supplementation at a median age of 28 d after birth. OBJECTIVE: The present study examined whether advancement of treatment initiation to 20 d had resulted in improved cognitive and motor outcome. DESIGN/SETTING/PATIENTS: In 82 Dutch CH-T patients, born in 1992 to 1993 and treated at a median age of 20 d (mean, 22 d; range, 2-73 d), cognitive and motor outcome was assessed (mean age, 10.5 yr; range, 9.6-11.4 yr). Severity of CH-T was classified according to pretreatment free T(4) concentration. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Cognitive and motor outcome of the 1992-1993 cohort in comparison to the 1981 to 1982 cohort was the main outcome measure. RESULTS: Patients with severe CH-T had lower full-scale (93.7), verbal (94.9), and performance (93.9) IQ scores than the normative population (P , 0.05), ...

Iodine is an absolute requirement for maternal, fetal, and postnatal thyroid hormone synthesis. Newborns affected with iodine deficiency have low T4 and high TSH concentrations. With radioisotope imaging, there is avid uptake of 123I by a normally located gland. Treatment involves iodine replacement until normal iodine balance is achieved.. On a global basis, iodine deficiency is the most common cause of transient hypothyroidism, particularly in preterm newborns.15,-,17 Preterm newborns are at higher risk because they have been prematurely deprived of the maternal supply of thyroid hormone, as well as iodine, which leads to inadequate accumulation of iodine in the thyroid gland compared with that of term newborns. Hypothyroidism represents a form of the broader category of iodine-deficiency disorders, which include endemic goiter, hypothyroidism, cretinism, decreased fertility rate, increased infant mortality, and intellectual disability.18 There is extreme variation in iodine deficiency among ...

To the best of the authors knowledge, this is the first Indian study on congenital hypothyroidism in preterm babies. We have described the experience of our unit in screening and evaluating preterm babies with congenital hypothyroidism. In the present study, we have observed a prevalence of 1 in 77 among the 1147 preterm babies screened. Five (33%) out of these cases were missed on initial screening, reiterating the need for repeat testing, and 5 of the screen-positive cases did not have the disease, reiterating the need to follow the standard protocols in preterm babies In our study, we have 15 cases of confirmed congenital hypothyroidism out of 1147 screened preterms, resulting in a prevalence of 1 in 77. This prevalence is much higher than term babies. Our results are comparable to reports by Silva et al. [20], Tylek et al. [11], Bijamia et al. [12], and Korada et al. [13], who reported a prevalence of 1 in 242, 1 in 202, 1 in 128, and 1 in 560, respectively. However, Srinivasan et al. [9] ...

In this study, we have demonstrated that the incidence of CHT has increased significantly in the Republic of Ireland over a 37-year period, without changes in screening thresholds or treatment protocols. The incidence of severe CHT has remained stable, as has the incidence of thyroid ectopy, athyreosis, and hypoplasia. The increase is predominantly seen in milder cases of CHT, which have a normal or hyperplastic gland. Although the increase is seen in milder cases of CHT, the largest increase was seen in infants with serum TSH concentrations between 21 and 100 mU/L at diagnosis, a range in which the need for treatment is not controversial.9 We have also shown in this study that an infant born with trisomy 21 is 26 times more likely than an infant without trisomy 21 to have CHT.. The incidence of CHT that was observed in our study (0.45 cases per 1000 births) is similar to rates that were recently reported in Western Australia (0.35 cases per 1000 live births),2 Quebec (0.40 cases per 1000 live ...
