U.S., May 13 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07579988) titled 'Ultrasound Measurement of Thyroid Volume in Term Newborns' on April 28.
Brief Summary: First, to date, no data are available on the thyroid volume of full-term newborns in Italy, making it essential to conduct studies to establish reference values for normality. This allows these values to be correlated with maternal and fetal variability, providing a scientific basis for better understanding thyroid development in the first days of life.
