Abstract

Objective: To compare cardiovascular risk factors in obese
patients with or without
Subclinical
Hypothyroidism (SH)
,
also to estimate the prevalence of SH in obese children and adolescents.



Method: A total of 226 obese children and adolescents aged
6-18 years were included in the study. Two groups were created as euthyroid
group (n=195) and SH group (n=31). A
fter an 8-12 hour overnight fasting, serum
blood glucose, insulin, HDL, LDL, cholesterol, triglyceride TSH, free T4, ALT,
AST levels were measured. HOMA-IR and atherogenic index (AI) were calculated.



Results: Prevalence of SH was estimated as 14.1 %. The values
of fasting glucose, fasting insülin, ALT, AST, TSH, HOMA-IR levels were
significantly higher ın SH group than euthyroid group. There was a positive
correlation between TSH and fasting glucose, insülin, triglyceride, ALT, AST,
HOMA-IR, AI. It was also demonstrated that the TSH level was significantly and
independently related to HOMA-IR value ın multiple regression analysis
(p=0.001).



Conclusions: Obese
patients with SH may be more susceptible to metabolic complications than
euthyroid subjects.
