Assessment<\/strong><\/td>

If the percentage increase in TSH remains below the cut-off, hypothyroidism is likely. rT3 provides further assistance in distinguishing hypothyroidism from non-thyroidal illness of decreased T4 concentration.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
