In 563 surviving very preterm (less than 32 weeks gestational age) and/or very low birthweight (less than 1500 g) infants the relationship between neonatal thyroxine concentration and psychomotor development at 2 years of age (corrected for preterm birth) was studied. A significant association was found between low neonatal thyroxine concentration and a negative score on the three milestones of development. These findings do not support the view that transient hypothyroxinaemia in preterm infants is harmless.
在563名存活的极早产儿(胎龄小于32周)和/或极低出生体重儿(出生体重小于1500克)中,研究了新生儿甲状腺素浓度与2岁时(校正早产因素后)精神运动发育之间的关系。研究发现,新生儿甲状腺素浓度低与发育的三个里程碑得分呈负相关。这些发现不支持早产儿短暂性甲状腺素血症无害的观点。
