Thematic Issue: Thyroid Disease 2022
November 2022
Read our special collection of journal articles, published in 2021-2022, focused on the thyroid! Curation of the collection was guided by Altmetric Attention Scores and Featured Article designations.
In Endocrinology, Liu and colleagues ( academic.oup.com/endo/artic... )report an association between free thyroxine and both birth weight and birth weight discordance in twins. Brûlé and coauthors ( academic.oup.com/endo/artic... ) describe results with mice indicating that IGSF1 loss can impair production of thyroid-stimulating hormone independently of alterations in thyroid hormone-releasing hormone levels or thyroid hormone action. Halada and coauthors ( academic.oup.com/endo/artic... )discuss hormonal crosstalk between thyroid cancer and breast cancer and its implications for future therapies.
In JCEM, Wu and associates ( academic.oup.com/jcem/artic... ) report that subclinical hypothyroidism is associated with incident metabolic syndrome in young men. Ettleson et al. ( academic.oup.com/jcem/artic... ) describe results suggesting suboptimal treatment of hypothyroidism is associated with worse hospital outcomes. And Krieger and colleagues ( academic.oup.com/jcem/artic... ) used orbital fibroblasts from patients with thyroid eye disease to demonstrate a likely mechanism of action of teprotumumab.
In Journal of the Endocrine Society, Jurado-Flores and coauthors ( academic.oup.com/jes/articl... ) describe in a mini-review the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric manifestations of thyroid disease, the understanding of which they suggest could help identify novel therapeutic targets for patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. Caetano et al. ( academic.oup.com/jes/articl... ) report that in a small group of patients with nonmedullary thyroid cancer, metformin caused a decrease in serum thyroglobulin, a surrogate marker for cancer burden. The effect was independent of levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone. Polavarapu and others ( academic.oup.com/jes/articl... ) find that use of Afirma’s Genomic Sequencing Classifier can lead to a lower rate of surgeries and a higher malignancy rate in patients who do have surgery for cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules.
In Endocrine Reviews, Jonklaas ( academic.oup.com/edrv/artic... ) discusses the subtleties of optimal thyroid hormone replacement, including the possible use of liothyronine in addition to levothyroxine. Andersson and Braegger ( academic.oup.com/edrv/artic... ) review iodine nutrition and its association with thyroid function in lactating women, infants, and toddlers. And Van Iersel and associates ( academic.oup.com/edrv/artic... ) describe recommendations for endocrine surveillance of childhood and young adult cancer survivors, who are at risk of developing malignancies as a result of toxic therapies; about 10 percent of these malignancies involve the thyroid.
