Abstract
In order to assess the contribution of 3.3′,5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) to overall thyroid hormone economy, conjoint measurements of the kinetics of peripheral T3 metabolism and the total concentration of T3 in serum were made in a group of normal subjects and in a group of patients with hyperthyroid Graves' disease. As judged from the disappearance of trichloroacetic acid-precipitable 131I from serum after a single intravenous dose of labeled T3, the following mean values were obtained in the normal subjects: volume of distribution, 43 liters or 0.62 liter/kg; fractional turnover rate. 52% per 24 hr: clearance rate, 22.3 liters/24 hr: and absolute disposal rate, 60 μg/24 hr. In the patients with untreated hyperthyroidism, values for all these functions were greatly increased. After treatment, the volume of T3 distribution returned to normal but the fractional turnover rate remained abnormally rapid.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
