The clinical value of thyroid hormone level detection in early pregnancy
Objective To explore the clinical value of thyroid hormone level detection in early pregnancy,providing reference for early clinical intervention and improving pregnancy outcomes.Methods 40 pregnant women in early pregnancy who underwent healthy prenatal examinations in our hospital were selected as the experimental group,and forty non pregnant women of childbearing age who underwent health examinations during the same period were selected as the control group.Both groups received thyroid hormone level testing and their test results were compared.Results The levels of thyrotropin in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group,while the levels of triiodothyronine,thyroxine,and free triiodothyronine were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Compared with the group with normal thyroid function,the group with hyperthyroidism had higher levels of triiodothyronine,thyroxine,free triiodothyronine,and free thyroxine,while the level of thyrotropin decreased;The levels of triiodothyronine,thyroxine,free triiodothyronine,and free thyroxine decreased in the hypothyroidism group,while the levels of thyrotropin increased(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the hypothyroidism group was higher than that in the normal thyroid function group and hyperthyroidism group(P<0.05).Conclusion The implementation of thyroid hormone level testing in early pregnancy can achieve monitoring of thyroid function in pregnant women,assist clinical diagnosis of thyroid abnormalities,and have an important positive impact on preventing adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women.
