    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triiodothyronine

    At the cellular level, T 3 is the body's more active and potent thyroid hormone. T 3 helps deliver oxygen and energy to all of the body's cells, its effects on target tissues being roughly four times more potent than those of T 4. Of the thyroid hormone that is produced, just about 20% is T 3, whereas 80% is produced as T 4.

    The main diagnostic sign is an oral body temperature that averages well below 37.0 °C (98.6 °F). This overlaps with normal body temperature, which is usually within the range of 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F). Wilson says that his diagnosis is confirmed if the patient responds to treatment with slow-release T3 (SR-T3).

    Euthyroid sick syndrome. Euthyroid sick syndrome ( ESS) is a state of adaptation or dysregulation of thyrotropic feedback control [1] wherein the levels of T3 and/or T4 are abnormal, but the thyroid gland does not appear to be dysfunctional. This condition may result from allostatic responses of hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid feedback control ...

    Deaths. > 600 per year (US) [4] Heat stroke or heatstroke, also known as sun-stroke, is a severe heat illness that results in a body temperature greater than 40.0 °C (104.0 °F), [4] along with red skin, headache, dizziness, and confusion. [2] Sweating is generally present in exertional heatstroke, but not in classic heatstroke. [5]

  7. Thyroid hormones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormones

    The major form of thyroid hormone in the blood is thyroxine (T 4), whose half-life of around one week is longer than that of T 3. In humans, the ratio of T 4 to T 3 released into the blood is approximately 14:1. T 4 is converted to the active T 3 (three to four times more potent than T 4) within cells by deiodinases (5′-deiodinase).

    Sepsis, infectious disease [1] Prognosis. 8-25% mortality with treatment; 80-100% mortality if untreated. Thyroid storm is a rare but severe and life-threatening complication of hyperthyroidism. It occurs when an overactive thyroid leads to hypermetabolism, which can cause death from cardiac arrest or multiple organ failure.

  9. Hyperthyroidism - Wikipedia

    Hyperthyroidism is the condition that occurs due to excessive production of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland. [3] Thyrotoxicosis is the condition that occurs due to excessive thyroid hormone of any cause and therefore includes hyperthyroidism. [3] Some, however, use the terms interchangeably. [5]
