Abstract
No recent study has focused on clinical features of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), especially in older patients. TSH measurement has remarkably evolved these last 20 years and thus reconsideration is needed. In our prospective multicenter study (2012-2014) including 807 subjects aged <60 years (<60y) and 531 subjects ≥60 years (≥60y), we have monitored 11 hypothyroidism-related clinical signs (hCS) together with TSH, FT4, FT3 and anti-thyroperoxidase antibodies values. hCS expression has been compared in patients with SCH vs euthyroidism in each age group. The number of hCS above 60y of age were found to be more elevated in the euthyroid population (1.9 vs 1.6, p<0.01) than in the SCH population (2.3 vs 2.6, p=0.41) while increase in hCS is limited to SCH subjects in the <60y group (p<0.01). The percentage of subjects with at least 3 signs increased with SCH in the <60y group (42.6% vs 25.0%, p<0.01) but not ≥60y (34.4% vs 33.9%, p=0.96). In older individuals, only three hCS could be related to both SCH and a decreased T3/T4-ratio (0.26 vs 0.27, p<0.01), suggesting either a reduced activity of TSH, or an adaptive response with aging. While hCS are clearly associated with SCH in patients <60y, they are not so informative in older subjects. TSH measurements carried out on the basis of hCS need to be interpreted with caution in aged patients. A reassessment of the TSH reference range in older patients is clearly needed and should be associated to more appropriate monitoring of thyroid dysfunction

Martínez Escudé A, Pera G, Arteaga I, Expósito C, Rodríguez L, Torán P, Caballeria L. Relationship between hypothyroidism and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in the Spanish population. Med Clin (Barc) 2019; 154:1-6. [PMID: 31153607 DOI: 10.1016/j.medcli.2019.03.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2018] [Revised: 02/24/2019] [Accepted: 03/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent liver disease in developed countries and is considered the hepatic component of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Recently hypothyroidism has been associated with NAFLD but has never been studied in Spain. OBJECTIVES To analyze the relationship between hypothyroidism (clinical and subclinical) and NAFLD. To determine the association between MetS with NAFLD and hypothyroidism. METHODS Cross-sectional, retrospective, population study in subjects ≥45 years from primary care centres in Catalonia included in the SIDIAP database. The data was collected between 2009 and 2013. VARIABLES socio-demographic data, comorbidities, toxic habits, physical examination, analytical tests and diagnosis of MetS. Descriptive analysis and application of statistical tests for the comparison of variables. RESULTS Sample of 10,116 individuals with a mean age of 61(10) and a predominance of females (63.6%). The prevalence of hypothyroidism was 9.1%, with no significant differences according to the presence of NAFLD (p=.631). Hypothyroidism was associated with higher triglyceride levels and a greater prevalence of obesity (p=.003). Greater alteration of AST was detected in individuals with elevated TSH (p=.012) and decreased levels of T4L (p=.037). Alterations in thyroid hormone levels were not associated with a higher prevalence of NAFLD (TSH p=.072 and T4L p=.447). Hypothyroidism was not considered a risk factor for the development of NAFLD (OR .75; 95% CI: .39-1.44; p=.38). CONCLUSIONS No association was found between hypothyroidism and NAFLD. Prospective studies are needed to clarify a possible relationship between these two diseases.
