Thyroid Allostasis–Adaptive Responses of Thyrotropic Feedback Control to Conditions of Strain, Stress, and Developmental Programming

TL;DR: An overview of physiological mechanisms as well as major diagnostic and therapeutic implications of thyroid allostasis under a variety of developmental and straining conditions is provided.

Early long‐term L‐T3 replacement rescues mitochondria and prevents ischemic cardiac remodeling in rats

TL;DR: Early and sustained physiological restoration of circulating L‐T3 levels after MI halves infarct scar size and prevents the progression towards heart failure is likely due to enhanced capillary formation and mitochondrial protection.

Low T3 syndrome improves risk prediction of in-hospital cardiovascular death in patients with acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: LT3S was associated with more severe myocardial injury and increased in- hospital CV mortality in patients with AMI and improved risk prediction of in-hospital CV death post-AMI when it was added to the TIMI risk score.

Thyroid Hormone and the White Matter of the Central Nervous System: From Development to Repair.

TL;DR: The impact of TH on development, homeostasis, and repair of the myelin in the CNS will be reviewed, focusing on the regulation of the TH tissue signaling during physiological and pathological conditions affecting myelination and/or myelin repair during early postnatal age and during the adulthood.

Measuring inconsistency in meta-analyses

TL;DR: A new quantity is developed, I 2, which the authors believe gives a better measure of the consistency between trials in a meta-analysis, which is susceptible to the number of trials included in the meta- analysis.

Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test

TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.

Meta-Analysis in Clinical Trials*

TL;DR: This paper examines eight published reviews each reporting results from several related trials in order to evaluate the efficacy of a certain treatment for a specified medical condition and suggests a simple noniterative procedure for characterizing the distribution of treatment effects in a series of studies.

The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for Assessing the Quality of Nonrandomised Studies in Meta-Analyses

TL;DR: The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) as discussed by the authors was developed to assess the quality of nonrandomised studies with its design, content and ease of use directed to the task of incorporating the quality assessments in the interpretation of meta-analytic results.

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2010 aimed to estimate annual deaths for the world and 21 regions between 1980 and 2010 for 235 causes, with uncertainty intervals (UIs), separately by age and sex, using the Cause of Death Ensemble model.
