Title Statement Radioactive iodine uptake studies in Filipinos Physical Description 1-15 Summary, Etc. 1. The results of the radioactive iodine studies on 177 subjects is herevy presented. Of this number 60 were normal, 41 presented goiter but were euthyroid, 48 were hyperthyroid, 8 were hypothyroid and 20 were suffering from other diseases. 2. It was observed that for practical and routine diagnostic test the 24th RAI uptake is enough and sufficiency reliable. 3. The normal 24th hour uptake, both sexes combined, was found to be 34.14% with a standard deviation of 12%. 4. Euthyroid subjects with goiter presented a mean of 40.15% and a standard deviation of 16.61% for the 24th hour uptake. 5. Hyperthyroid subjects gave a mean of 70.48 and a deviation of 22.05% on the 24th hour uptake. 6. Hypothyroid patients gave a mean of 4.69% and a standard deviation of 3.06% on the 24th hour uptake. 7. Among hyperthyroid cases, PBI is positively correlated with RAI uptake. Among euthyroids with goiter, PBI is negatively correlated with RAI uptake and BMR is negatively correlated with RAI uptake. 8. It is obvious that there is a big overlap in values but it is also obvious that radioactive iodine uptake is informative in evaluating thyroid function. 9. Significant correlation is demonstrated between PBI values and the 24 hours RAI uptake especially in euthyroids with goiter and hyperthyroids. 10. No significant correlation could be shown between BMR values and 24 hours RAI uptake. However, in spite of the fact that correlation is not significant, there is a definite tendency for the BMR and RAI uptake values to be elevated in hyperthyroids and depressed in hypothyroids Subject Added Entry - Topical Term IODINE   IODINE           Physical Location           Digital Copy Not Available          Add to Book Cart  |   Download MARC
