Christopher Robinson: AJOG Study Explores Long-Term Hypothyroidism Risk After Pregnancy
Christopher Robinson, Associate Professor of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at the University of South Carolina and Executive Chair of the Foundation for the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper by Christine Henricks et al. published in AJOG:
“Long-term risk of hypothyroidism after thyroid abnormalities identified in pregnancy.
Pregnant individuals with subclinical hypothyroidism, thyroid peroxidase antibodies, or both were identified from a prospective cohort screened for thyroid dysfunction during early pregnancy at a single public health system between November 2000 and April 2003.
Individuals without retrievable follow-up data within the health system electronic medical record were excluded. The final analytic cohort was followed for up to 25 years and stratified by antenatal thyroid phenotype. Outcomes reflect progression to overt hypothyroidism.”
