TL;DR: A prospective study of the neuropsychological development of the offspring of 16 women from a moderately iodine-deficient area and of 11 controlWomen from a marginally iodine-sufficient area whose thyroid function had been monitored during early gestation, which might suggest a common ADHD pathogenetic mechanism consisting of reduced sensitivity of the nuclear receptors to thyroid hormone or reduced availability of intracellular T3 for nuclear receptor binding.

TL;DR: Prolonged iodized salt significantly improves maternal thyroid economy and reduces the risk of maternal thyroid insufficiency during gestation, probably because of a nearly restoring intrathyroidal iodine stores.

TL;DR: Both free thyroid hormone and TSH reference intervals change throughout pregnancy, and most scientific societies now recommend that method- and gestation-specific reference ranges be used for interpreting results in pregnancy.

TL;DR: The effect of different conditions of nutritional iodine intake on maternal thyroid function throughout gestation in a cohort of healthy, anti‐thyroid antibody‐negative women from a mild‐moderately iodine‐deficient area is examined.

TL;DR: Both thyroid diseases SH and autoimmune disorder are independently associated with very early embryo loss, but women suffering from SH have a lower gestational age at abortion.
