Thyroid function tests in chronic liver disease: evidence for multiple abnormalities despite clinical euthyroidism.
To further evaluate thyroid function in patients with liver disease, we have measured total and free T3 and T4, thyroxine binding globulin, basal and thyrotropin releasing hormone-stimulated thyrotropin and thyroglobulin antibodies in 33 patients with liver cirrhosis, in 22 with chronic hepatitis and in 30 healthy controls. All the patients but one were clinically euthyroid. T3, FT3, T3/thyroxi...
متن کاملAbnormalities in Thyroid Function and Morphology in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients
Background: The kidney has an important role in the metabolism of thyroid hormones. Impaired renal function and the resulting accumulation of uremic toxins may disturb thyroid physiology at various levels. The prevalence of goiter and thyroid nodules is significantly increased in patients with ESRD compared with other hospitalized patients admitted for treatment of non-renal disease. The purpos...
متن کاملAbnormalities in thyroid function associated with chronic therapy with methadone.
We studied 145 clinically euthyroid patients on maintenance methadone therapy for narcotic withdrawal, to characterize abnormalities in thyroid-function tests induced by methadone. About a third had increased total thyroxin (T4) and total triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations in serum. The mean concentrations of T3, T4, and thyroxin-binding globulin (TBG) in serum were significantly greater (P l...
متن کاملImmunoregulatory abnormalities in autoimmune thyroid diseases.
We have investigated the ability of lymphocytes from normal subjects and patients with autoimmune thyroid diseases to respond to a thyroidal antigen (human thyroglobulin, hTG) and a non-thyroidal antigen (Keyhole limpet hemocyanin, KLH) in vitro, using a hapten (trinitrophenol, TNP)-carrier system. This system is based on the concept that the T helper cells which respond to hTG or KLH should st...
متن کاملHemostatic abnormalities and liver diseases.
Professor Eberhard F. Mammen greatly contributed to the understanding of the relationship between hemostatic abnormalities and liver diseases. The physiology of the hemostatic system is closely linked to liver function because the liver parenchymal cells produce most of the factors of the clotting and fibrinolytic systems. Acute or chronic hepatocellular diseases and hepatic failure including l...
