TL;DR: More than adequate or excessive iodine intake may lead to hypothyroidism and autoimmune thyroiditis in cohorts from three regions with different levels of iodine intake.

TL;DR: To examine the relationship between specific thyroid abnormalities in women during pregnancy and the subsequent neuropsychological development of their offspring.

TL;DR: More than adequate iodine intake could be a public health concern in terms of thyroid function and thyroid autoimmunity in the Chinese populations.

TL;DR: Evaluated levels of TSH, free thyroxine, free triiodothyronine, and thyroid peroxidase antibodies were measured and thyroid disorders of pregnant women were diagnosed based on the first trimester-specific reference intervals to explore the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction during early pregnancy and to analyze effectiveness of different screening strategies.

TL;DR: Iodine supplementation may not induce an increase in hyperthyroidism in a previously mildly iodine-deficient population, suggesting that excessive iodine intake may not be an environmental factor involved in the occurrence of autoimmune hyper thyroidroidism.
