Original language description

Abstract Introduction: The focus of the present study was the importance of the mother’s thyroid function for foetal development in the first trimester, when the baby is totally dependent on the mother for thyroid hormones. Materials and methods: The study consisted of testing the intellectual performance of children with both euthyroid and thyroid-dysfunction mothers. The experimental group comprised 60 children of mothers with an untreated thyroid disorder in the first trimester of pregnancy (TSH &gt;/= 3.5 mlU/L [standard 0.15–3.5] and/or TPO-Ab &gt;/= 20 lU/L [standard &lt; 20]). The control group contained 132 children whose mothers showed no symptoms of a thyroid disorder either before or during pregnancy/postpartum. Both groups of children were administered the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children — Third Edition (WISC-III), whereby the intellectual performance of the experimental-group children was compared with that of the control-group children. The comparison included the percentage of children with IQ
