Uses for recombinant human TSH in patients with thyroid cancer and nodular goiter.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The menopausal transition is characterized by increased body fat accumulation, including redistribution from peripheral to central fat depots. This distribution is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease that are linked to low-grade inflammation. We determined whether p...
