ASSOCIATION OF THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE AND THYROID HORMONES WITH LIPID PROFILE IN GHANAIAN EUTHYROID PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES

摘要: Increasing evidence suggests that thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) may exert extra-thyroidal effects and modulate the profile of blood lipids.  The aim this study was to determine association between TSH levels, hormones, thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3) lipid in euthyroid type 2 diabetic non-diabetic subjects with elevated cholesterol levels.   Serum levels TSH, FT4 FT3 normal were assayed.  Total (TC), triglyceride (TG) high-density lipoprotein (HDL-c) also analyzed.  found be lower individuals cholesterol.  correlated positively TC, LDL-c HDL-c but showed a negative relationship TG FPG diabetics cholesterol. correlation parameters except HDL-c. However, serum not significantly different groups.  We infer one many biochemical modulators circulatory Our results suggest reduction play role elevation lipids irrespective status.  An assessment status have wide-ranging clinical significance management hypercholesterolemia both individuals.
