New study eyes hidden developmental hurdles in hypothyroid infants

This study looks at how babies aged 6 to 18 months with congenital hypothyroidism (a thyroid condition present at birth) develop their motor skills, sensory processing, and neurological health. Researchers will assess 40 infants who have been on treatment since birth, using standard developmental tests. The goal is to better understand early developmental challenges that may be missed in routine care.
