Usage Information
Abstract
Triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) were measured by immunoassay in the serum and thyroid hydrolysates of control (group A), mildly iodine-deficient (group B), and severely iodine-deficient rats (group C). These results were correlated with changes in thyroidal weight, 131I uptake and 127I content as well as with the distribution of 131I in Pronase digests of the thyroid. There was a progressive increase in thyroid weight and 131I uptake at 24 h with decrease in iodine intake. The 127I content of the thyroids of the group B animals was 44% and that of the group C animals 2% of that in group A. The mean labeled monoiodotyrosine/diiodotyrosine (MIT/DIT) and T3/T4 ratios in group A were 0.42±0.07 (SD) and 0.12±0.01, 0.59±0.06 and 0.11±0.03 in group B, and 2.0±0.3 and 1.8±0.9 in the group thyroid digests.

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.
