triiodothyronine and Encephalopathy, Hepatic

triiodothyronine has been researched along with Encephalopathy, Hepatic in 10 studies

Triiodothyronine: A T3 thyroid hormone normally synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland in much smaller quantities than thyroxine (T4). Most T3 is derived from peripheral monodeiodination of T4 at the 5' position of the outer ring of the iodothyronine nucleus. The hormone finally delivered and used by the tissues is mainly T3.
3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine : An iodothyronine compound having iodo substituents at the 3-, 3'- and 5-positions. Although some is produced in the thyroid, most of the 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine in the body is generated by mono-deiodination of L-thyroxine in the peripheral tissues. Its metabolic activity is about 3 to 5 times that of L-thyroxine. The sodium salt is used in the treatment of hypothyroidism.

"15 consecutive patients with hepatic encephalopathy secondary to non-alcoholic cirrhosis (8 males and 7 females, age 37-75 years) and 33 non-alcoholic cirrhotic patients without encephalopathy (22 males and 11 females, age 36-74 years) were investigated."5.32Low serum total thyroxine and free triiodothyronine in patients with hepatic encephalopathy due to non-alcoholic cirrhosis.

"To evaluate thyroid function in 19 patients with fulminant hepatitis (FH), we have measured total and free 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4), 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (reverse T3, rT3), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroxin-binding globulin (TBG) in patients with FH, compared with those of 80 patients with other various liver diseases and of 10 healthy controls."3.67Serum thyroid hormone levels in patients with fulminant hepatitis: usefulness of rT3 and the rT3/T3 ratio as prognostic indices.
