Journal Article
Samuel, N. A., Cuthbert, J. J., Brown, O. I., Kazmi, S., Cleland, J. G., Rigby, A. S., & Clark, A. L. (2021). Relation Between Thyroid Function and Mortality in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure. The American journal of cardiology, 139, 57-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjcard.2020.10.034

Thyroid dysfunction is common in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), but there is conflicting evidence regarding its prognostic significance. We investigated the relation between thyroid function and prognosis in a large, well characterized co...

Context: Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) are novel, surrogate biomarkers of endothelial function and have been shown to be elevated in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). It remains poorly understood how pharmacological options for managin...
