Вплив терапії L-тироксином на показники ліпідного обміну у хворих на субклінічний гіпотиреоз

Abstract

One consequence of declining thyroid function is rising serum lipid levels, as observed in this study. Most hypothyroid individuals had аn elevated lipid levels. Mean total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol levels rose with а significant trend across grades of thyroid function. Our results support the hypothesis that treating patients with mild degrees of thyroid failure will, оn average, afford modest decreases in serum total and LDL cholesterol levels.
