What diseases are seen in newborns with a body temperature below 35°C, poor feeding, and no crying?

Patient's question:

Just born for a day, not eating or crying, low body temperature

Doctor's answer:

It may be hypothyroidism, which is a short form of hypothyroidism. It is a systemic metabolic syndrome caused by insufficient synthesis, secretion, or biological effects of thyroid hormones due to various reasons. Its pathological features include the accumulation of mucopolysaccharides and other substances in tissues and skin, with severe cases presenting as myxedema. Treating hypothyroidism is relatively difficult and not easy to cure. The main treatment is usually the supplementation of exogenous thyroid hormones, such as using Euthyrox for treatment.
