Journal: Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology

Published Date: Dec 1, 2015

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The aims of this study were to demonstrate ventricular function changes in patients with congenital hypothyroidism and to investigate whether there is an association between any such changes and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels using M-mode and Doppler electrocardiography (ECG) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI).
