I've relayed the full paper to Louise Warvill at TUK so if you contact her she can give you the full access.

Diogenes, interesting paper, based on Russell et al a lot. One nice statement, "The levels of circulating FT4 and FT3 represent essential clinical parameters for identification of thyroid-related pathologies." Always nice to see that in print, maybe someone will pay attention. Still, no one sees the relationship between the circadian T3 pulse in the early hours and it's effect on the adrenals. I wonder how long it will take science to discover that relationship. Thanks for making the article available. PR
