TSH and free triiodothyronine concentrations are associated with weight loss in a lifestyle intervention and weight regain afterwards in obese children

This prospective study investigated the relationship between thyroid hormone levels and weight changes in 51 obese children undergoing a 1-year lifestyle intervention. The study found that higher baseline thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were associated with greater weight loss during the intervention, while higher free triiodothyronine (fT3) levels correlated with weight
