Journal ArticleDOI
Altered intestinal absorption of L-thyroxine caused by coffee.
Salvatore Benvenga,L. Bartolone,Maria Angela Pappalardo,Antonia Russo,Daniela Lapa,Grazia Giorgianni,Giovanna Saraceno,Francesco Trimarchi +7 more
TL;DR: In vivo and in vitro studies showing coffee's potential to impair thyroxine (T4) intestinal absorption and T4 to the list of compounds whose absorption is affected by coffee are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delayed intestinal absorption of levothyroxine.
TL;DR: Full suppression or normalization of TSH is obtained by postponing breakfast for at least 60 min after T4 ingestion by patients in whom TSH-suppressive or replacement L-T4 therapy failed to suppress or normalize serum TSH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of the Hepatocyte Growth Factor and c-met in Normal Thyroid, Non-neoplastic, and Neoplastic Nodules
Maria Trovato,Daniela Villari,L. Bartolone,S. Spinella,A. Simone,Maria Antonia Violi,Francesco Trimarchi,D. Batolo,Salvatore Benvenga +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the HGF/c-met system is activated (by overexpression of both components) in the vast majority of PTC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myopathy as the Persistently Isolated Symptomatology of Primary Autoimmune Hypothyroidism
Carmelo Rodolico,A. Toscano,Salvatore Benvenga,Anna Mazzeo,S. Bartolone,L. Bartolone,Paolo Girlanda,Maria C. Monici,Alba Migliorato,Francesco Trimarchi,Giuseppe Vita +10 more
TL;DR: The similarity of the pattern of desmin expression between hypothyroid cores and target lesions of denervated fibers supports the hypothesis that, at least in some of the authors' patients, myopathy was the result of an impaired nerve-mediated action of thyroid hormones on skeletal muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thyroid hormone autoantibodies elicited by diagnostic fine needle biopsy
TL;DR: It is concluded that Tg release from the thyroid is sufficient to elicit THAb synthesis, and in patients with autoimmune thyroid disease (HT), this synthesis occurs with a frequency 10-fold higher than that in Patients with nonautoimmune thyroid diseases (21% vs. 2%).
