摘要: Objective Overt hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are associated with hypertension, but it is uncertain whether the same true of subclinical hyperthyroidism. Design, subjects measurements Cross-sectional study 2033 participants (aged 17-89 years) in Busselton Thyroid Study who did not have a history thyroid disease. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic (DBP) prevalence hypertension (defined as SBP >or=140 mmHg, DBP >or=90 mmHg or on treatment for hypertension) dysfunction euthyroid were compared using linear regression models. Subjects treated (N = 299) excluded from analyses included prevalence. Results Mean SBP, differ significantly between 105) 1859), nor they serum TSH concentrations upper reference range (2.0-4.0 mU/l; N 418) those lower (0.4-2.0 1441). The was higher than (prevalence odds ratio 2.8, 95% confidence interval 1.3-6.0 adjusted age, age(2) sex), this based small number 35). Conclusions Subclinical hypertension. observed association requires confirmation larger sample.
