CORRELATION BETWEEN THYROID FUNCTION AND OBESITY IN TYPE 2 DIABETES INDIVIDUALS

Objectives: In the present study, it is aimed to investigate prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and blood glucose parameters their correlation in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) obese patients. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional observational conducted for period 1 year January 2020–January 2022. patient demographic data, age, gender were collected from medical records. After an overnight fast, venous samples morning laboratory tests. Electrochemiluminescence immunoassays used assess serum free T3 (FT3), FT4, stimulating hormone (TSH). Fasting glucose, postprandial random sugar levels measured using enzymatic method. Body mass index (BMI) calculated as weight (kg) divided by squared height (m). Results: mean values harmones T3, T4 between non-obese individuals showed that no much significant variations might be due low sample size. However, TSH significantly higher 8.7ng/dl than individuals. There positive identified T2DM On other hand, there influence sugar, hemoglobin A1C, BMI patients insignificant T4. results also highly THS Conclusion: findings investigation high function, mainly levels, diabetes, particularly persons.
