As of version 1.7, it is simpler to provide {\tt amsthm} as an option to either {\tt newtx} or {\tt newtxmath}.
-\item {\tt uprightGreek} and {\tt slantedGreek} determine the form of Greek alphabet loaded---the default is {\tt uprightGreek}, which loads upright uppercase and slanted lowercase Greek symbols, as is customary in Anglo-American mathematical typesetting. With the option {\tt slantedGreek}, which you might want to use if you cared about ISO standards, all Greek symbols are slanted. No matter which is set, \verb|\Gammaup| (or \verb|\upGamma|) gives you upright \verb|\Gamma|, etc, and \verb|\Deltait|, \verb|\zetait| give you italic (i.e., slanted) versions of those letters. If you are using a text font family with properly constructed OT$1$--encoded versions, then, no matter what you chose as the default shape for upper case Greek letters, \verb|\mathnormal{\Omega}| etc will always produce the slanted version. (The macro \verb|\mathnormal| means essentially ``use the version of the symbol in {\tt letters}''---i.e., the math italic form. This did not always work as expected in versions prior to 1.45.) Currently, this works as expected with {\tt newtxtext} and {\tt libertine}.

Currently, this works as expected with {\tt newtxtext} and {\tt libertine}. The \verb|\mathsf| macro behaves traditionally in a different way, always producing upright Greek and Latin letters. For slanted output, you would need to create a new macro like the \verb|\mathsfsl| described in \emph{The \LaTeX\ Companion 3}.
\item Option {\tt frenchmath} sets the default style in math mode for rendering uppercase Roman and Greek letters to upright, and lowercase Greek letters to upright. (Introduced in v.\ 1.28.)
\item The option {\tt cmbraces} instructs {\tt newtxmath} to ignore the brace collections from {\tt txfonts}, substituting a collection based on thickened versions of the Computer Modern braces, which I find much easier to distinguish from other delimiters. This works quite well in regular weight but looks a bit clunky in bold. The option {\tt bigdelims}, which superseded {\tt cmbraces}, is now not necessary---it is the default as of version 1.5.
\item Option {\tt nonewtxmathopt} (or {\tt scale}, a mistake I cannot now erase) causes newtxmath to not make use of the optical math sizes (7{\tt pt}, 5{\tt pt}), as preferred by some.
