Hypothyroidism on Lipid Metabolism

The thyroid gland is important in the human body because of its ability to produce the hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and tetraiodothyronine (T4), necessaries for appropriate energy levels and an active life. It has long been known that thyroid hormones are of vital importance in maintaining the initial level of phospholipids in cell membranes and fatty acids composition of the lipids (Prasad &...

Lipid Profile Abnormalities in Hypothyroidism

The present investigation was conducted to study the contributive role of clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism in causing dyslipidemia. A total of 220 clinical hypothyroidism patients, 146 subclinical hypothyroids and 200 euthyroid controls, with a mean age of 39 years (range25 – 55 years) were included. The thyropropin, triiodothyronine and thyroxine levels of the patients were assayed by e...
