#Hashimoto's #thyroiditis can progress from euthyroid autoimmunity to subclinical and overt #hypothyroidism, with substantial variation in its course. Clinical manifestations vary with the extent of thyroid dysfunction and inflammatory activity thelancet.com/journals/landi…

Healthy remodeling of adipose tissue helps maintain metabolic balance and protect surrounding organs. But when this process is disrupted, it can lead to harmful cellular changes that contribute to metabolic disease and that damage nearby tissues. Although weight loss can reverse many aspects of fat-tissue dysfunction, some changes may persist.
According to a new #ScienceReview, understanding which changes are reversible and which leave lasting effects is key to helping researchers develop treatments that don’t just reduce fat mass, but also restore healthy fat-tissue function and improve metabolic resilience.

Since its first description by Thomas Addison in 1855, dramatic advancements have been made in management of #Addison's disease—transforming it from a predominantly lethal disease to a manageable condition with in most cases expected long-term survival
thelancet.com/journals/landi… .
ALT Addison's disease is characterised by reduced adrenal steroid production. Symptoms can be grouped based on steroid class (glucocorticoid: orange, mineralocorticoid: blue, and adrenal androgen: green). Cortisol deficiency results in loss of negative feedback to the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, and a consequent rise in hypothalamic secretion of CRH and secretion of ACTH from the anterior pituitary. Increased melanin production leads to hyperpigmentation. Other features of Addison's disease include reduced quality of life, cognitive deficits, depression, anxiety, and laboratory or biochemical abnormalities. ACTH=adrenocorticotropic hormone. CRH=corticotropin releasing hormone. HRQoL=health-related quality of life. K+=potassium. Na+=sodium. T4=thyroxine. TSH=thyroid-stimulating hormone.
