However, there are limited data regarding pregnancy outcomes, particularly their association with birthweight.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>We assessed the association between isolated hypothyroxinemia and subclinical hypothyroidism during the first trimester and birthweight.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Analyses were conducted using a database of pregnant women (n = 1105; median age, 35\u2005years) who delivered at the National Center for Child Health and Development, a tertiary hospital in Tokyo.

The prevalence of SGA was significantly higher in isolated hypothyroxinemia and subclinical hypothyroidism groups than the euthyroidism group (28.0% and 19.2%, respectively, vs 5.7%; P &amp;lt; .01). The odds ratio with 95% CI for SGA was 12.51 (4.41-35.53) for isolated hypothyroxinemia and 4.44 (1.57-12.56) for subclinical hypothyroidism in a multivariable adjustment model.
