摘要: Patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) are commonly treated long-term thyrotropin (TSH)- suppressive thyroxine replacement therapy resolving in a state of subclinical hyperthyroidism. The relationship between hyperthyroidism and osteoporosis is not clear. In this review, we systematically selected analyzed 21 studies addressing issue. Although multiple methodological differences prevented structured meta-analysis, our data suggest that postmenopausal women most at risk, whereas no increased risk was observed men premenopausal women. Based on these findings believe measurement bone mineral density recommended DTC starting TSH therapy. This should be subsequently regularly measured to enable timely intervention protective agents.
