Maternal use of thyroid hormone replacement therapy before, during, and after pregnancy: Agreement between self-report and prescription records and group-based trajectory modeling of prescription patterns

Clinical Epidemiology Dec 09, 2018

Frank AS, et al. - Using data from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (MoBa), a prospective population-based cohort study, researchers evaluated the agreement between self-reporting and thyroid hormone replacement therapy (THRT) prescription records before and during pregnancy and used a group-based trajectory model (GBTM) approach for women with similar THRT prescription patterns in longitudinal trajectory groups from 6 months before 12 months after pregnancy. During the early pregnancy period, the agreement between self-reporting and prescription records was high. Based on the results of the GBTM, approximately one in two women with hypothyroidism had adequate adherence to prescribed THRT throughout pregnancy.
