The influence of thyroid dysfunction on bone metabolism
نویسندگان
چکیده
Loss of bone mineral density due to osteoporosis is the main cause of fragility fractures and leads to dropped quality of life and increased mortality. Disturbance of balance between bone formation and bone resorption is dangerous, can cause loss of bone mass and disruption of it's architecture. Correct development, achievement of peak bone mass and normal functioning of human skeleton depend on different factors. The pivotal role in bone metabolism play thyroid hormones. Both excess as well as deficiency of fT4 and fT3 can be potentially deleterious for bone tissue. The aim of this study is to review the current literature concerning the role of thyroid hormones on bone metabolism.

Background and Objective: Patients with hypothyroidism require thyroid hormone replacement. Many studies have shown that bone density reduction is caused by suppressive doses of levothyroxine, but there are contradictory results regarding the effect of levothyroxine replacement dose (non suppressive). The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of replacement doses of levothyroxine ...
متن کاملThe thyroid gland in postmenopausal women: physiology and diseases
The incidence of most thyroid diseases: hypothyroidism, nodular goitre, and cancer is highest among postmenopausal and elderly women. The diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction in this group of patients is difficult because the symptoms can be nonspecific or common with menopausal and ageing complaints. In the interpretation of thyroid function tests the physiological changes in secretion and metabol...

Introduction: Thyroid dysfunction can impair fat and glucose metabolism, blood pressure, and body weight. On the other hand, metabolic syndrome (MetS) can be associated with an increased risk of hypothyroidism. Due to the high prevalence of both disorders and the possibility of synergistic metabolic detrimental consequences in combination, this review study aimed to investigate the reciprocal a...

Background: Thyroid carcinoma is the most frequent malignant tumor of the endocrine system in human body and accounts for nearly 1% of all cancers. Medullary thyroid carcinoma is the third frequent of thyroid cancer and accounts about 5-8% of thyroid cancer. Osteocalcin, known as a Bone Gamma-carboxyglutamic Acid-containing Protein (BGLAP), is the most non collagenous protein. Retinol binding p...
متن کاملAssessment of Some Biochemical Markers of Bone Turnover in Thyroid Dysfunction State
Thyroid hormones affect bone metabolism by altering normal bone remodeling processes. This study involved assessment of biochemical markers of bone turnover in 94 patients with thyroid dysfunction. Clear hypocalcaemia was observed in hypothyroidism while in hyperthyroid patients there was frank hypercalcaemia. In hyperthyroidism there is increased activity of osteoclast which leads to increased...
