thyroxine has been researched along with Kwashiorkor in 13 studies
Thyroxine: The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
thyroxine : An iodothyronine compound having iodo substituents at the 3-, 3'-, 5- and 5'-positions.
Kwashiorkor: A syndrome produced by severe protein deficiency, characterized by retarded growth, changes in skin and hair pigment, edema, and pathologic changes in the liver, including fatty infiltration, necrosis, and fibrosis. The word is a local name in Gold Coast, Africa, meaning displaced child. Although first reported from Africa, kwashiorkor is now known throughout the world, but mainly in the tropics and subtropics. It is considered to be related to marasmus. (From Dorland, 27th ed)

| "The thyroid functional parameters of 102 children with protein-calorie malnutrition (PCM) classified as undernourished, marasmic, kwashiorkor and marasmic-kwashiorkor were studied by measuring the serum T4, T3, T3 percentage uptake (T3%UT), free thyroxine index (FTI), and (in a few subjects) TSH." | 3.66 | Thyroid status in various degrees of protein-calorie malnutrition in children. ( Etta, KM; Maharajan, G; Onuora, C; Singh, A, 1983) |
| "Serum concentration of cortisol, growth hormone, thyroxine, thyroid stimulating hormone, follicle stimulating hormone and luteinising hormone, together with triiodothyronine uptake have been measured in Nigerian children with kwashiorkor and marasmus and compared with controls." | 3.65 | A study of enocrine function in protein-energy malnutrition. ( McFarlane, H; Morris, PM; Olusi, SO; Orrell, DH, 1977) |
