Effects of thyroxine supplementation on neurologic development in infants born at less than 30 weeks' gestation
A. G. van Wassenaer,J. H. Kok,J. J. M. De Vijlder,Judy M. Briët,Bert J. Smit,Pieter Tamminga,A.L. van Baar,Friedo W. Dekker,T. Vulsma +8 more
TL;DR: In infants born before 30 weeks' gestation, thyroxine supplementation does not improve the developmental outcome at 24 months, and neither mental nor psychomotor scores differed significantly between study groups at any time.
Journal ArticleDOI
The discrepancy between maturation of visual-evoked potentials and cognitive outcome at five years in very preterm infants with and without hemodynamic signs of fetal brain-sparing.
TL;DR: Both being born with a raised U/C ratio and an acceleration of VEP latencies are negatively associated with cognitive outcome at 5 years of age, which is later associated with a poorer cognitive outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thyroid function in very preterm infants: influences of gestational age and disease
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the influence of immaturity and disease on postnatal thyroid function in infants <30 wk of gestational age and concluded that the extent of the thyroid decrease after birth in infants of < 30 wk gestation is mainly influenced by gestational ages and probably reflects a transient depletion of thyroidal reserve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of pre- and postnatal exposure to chlorinated dioxins and furans on human neonatal thyroid hormone concentrations.
H.J. Pluim,J. J. M. De Vijlder,Kees Olie,J. H. Kok,T. Vulsma,D.A. van Tijn,J.W. van der Slikke,Janna G. Koppe +7 more
TL;DR: It is postulate that the observed plasma tT4 elevation in infants exposed to dioxins before and after birth is the result of an effect on the thyroid hormone regulatory system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurologic development of the newborn and young child in relation to maternal thyroid function.
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of maternal thyroid function in the first half of pregnancy on the neurologic development of the infant was studied, and a prospective observational study was performed in pregnant women with known thyroid disease.
