Thyroglobulin

The presence of thyroid autoantibodies may be detected as early as age 10 months for children, and those positive for both thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin autoantibodies have a higher risk for thyroid disease, according to study data.

Thyroglobulin levels differed by glucocorticoid use, but not by thyroid function, among a cohort of adults hospitalized for COVID-19, according to findings published in Frontiers in Endocrinology.

Adults hospitalized with COVID-19 are more likely to test positive for thyroid peroxidase antibodies about 3 months after infection than those who did not have COVID-19, according to study findings from researchers in Italy.

Serum thyroglobulin levels after a lobectomy can be used to predict recurrence risk for adults with papillary thyroid carcinoma, according to findings published in Thyroid.

Likelihood of testing positive for thyroglobulin antibodies is increased for people with higher LDL cholesterol and decreased for those with higher HDL cholesterol levels, particularly among women, according to study data.

Thyroid cancer persistence is accurately captured by the American Thyroid Association’s 2015 risk stratification system for patients with more severe forms of the condition, according to findings published in Thyroid.
