FUNCTIONS AND CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS”

JUAN BERNAL et al,

CHALLENGES IN TREATMENT

MONOTHERAPY VS COMBINATION THERAPY IN

HYPOTHYROIDISM ‘JOURNAL OF CLINICAL

ENDOCRINOLOGY & METABOLISM’ Thyroxine-triiodothyronine combination

therapy versus thyroxine monotherapy for clinical hypothyroidism: Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2006;91:2592–2599. Grozinsky et al.

CONCLUSION Implications for practice and research : “Given the conclusive evidence,

monotherapy with T 4 should remain the standard treatment for hypothyroidism.

It is doubtful whether further trials evaluating combination therapy are needed because the chances that the accumulated evidence will change are low.”

SUBCLINICAL HYPOTHYROIDISM

DEFINITION: A SERUM TSH CONCENTRATION BELOW THE STATISTICALLY DEFINED LOWER LIMIT OF THE REFERENCE RANGE WHEN SERUM T4 AND T3 CONCENTRATIONS ARE WITHIN THEIR REFERENCE RANGES.


Subclinical Thyroid Disease : Scientific Review and Guidelines for Diagnosis and Management

Martin I. Surks et al;

JAMA January 14, 2004, Vol. 291



AMONG PATIENTS WITH UNTREATED SUBCLINICAL HYPOTHYROIDISM, THERE IS NO SINGLE LEVEL OF SERUM TSH AT WHICH CLINICAL ACTION IS ALWAYS EITHER INDICATED OR CONTRAINDICATED. AS THE SERUM TSH CONCENTRATION INCREASES ABOVE 10 MIU/L,


HOWEVER, THE BASIS FOR INITIATING TREATMENT IS MORE COMPELLING AS THE SERUM TSH CONCENTRATION INCREASES ABOVE 10 MIU/L, HOWEVER, THE BASIS FOR INITIATING TREATMENT IS MORE COMPELLING


CLINICAL CONTEXT IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT. THIS OPINION REFLECTS CLINICAL EXPERIENCE AND JUDGMENT AS WELL AS THE LITERATURE THAT SUGGESTS IMPROVEMENT IN SYMPTOMS AND POSSIBLE LOWERING OF LDL CHOLESTEROL.


THERE ARE NO STUDIES THAT DEMONSTRATE DECREASED MORBIDITY OR MORTALITY WITH TREATMENT.


THE POTENTIAL RISKS OF THERAPY ARE LIMITED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUBCLINICAL HYPERTHYROIDISM, WHICH MAY OCCUR IN 14% TO 21% OF INDIVIDUALS TREATED WITH LEVOTHYROXINE.

Conclusion “ A growing body of evidence has

GUT FLORA IN THYROIDITIS Conclusion…..Not only pathogens but also intestinal

symbiotic microorganisms can influence extra-intestinal immune responses, and thus dysbiosis in the gut might lead to the loss of tolerance to self-antigens including thyroglobulin and the autoimmunity that underlies Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.”
