Parameter
| Biomarker | TSH | Full name | Thyroid stimulating hormone | Molecular Type | hormone |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Molecular Formula | Macromolecule | Molecular Weight | / | Core Functional Dimensions | Diagnosis, Monitoring |
| Disease | Thyroid Dysfunction | Disease Subtypes | / | ||
| Organ | Thyroid/Pituitary | Test Sample / Technology Platform | Serum (chemiluminescence immunoassay, ELISA) | ||
| Pathobiological Mechanisms | Thyroid hormone is oversecreted, and negative feedback inhibits pituitary TSH release | ||||
| Clinical Availability Status | Diagnostic core index (< 0.1 mIU/L), joint FT3 FT4 / confirmed | ||||
| Notes and Dynamics | Very low levels suggest a high possibility of Graves' disease | ||||
