Impaired central sensitivity to thyroid hormone is associated with hypertriglyceridemia in euthyroid population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We aimed to investigate the correlation between central thyroid hormone sensitivity and Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) in euthyroid population.

Methods

A total of 833 individuals who underwent physical examinations were randomly selected. Biochemical parameters including thyroid hormones (THs), liver and kidney functions, blood glucose, and blood lipids were measured. Central TH sensitivity was evaluated using the thyroid feedback quantile-based index (TFQI), thyroid-stimulating hormone index (TSHI) and thyrotropin thyroxine resistance index (TT4RI). ​​ We analyzed the relationship between central TH sensitivity and triglyceride (TG) level using smooth curve fitting and threshold effect analysis and trend tests in multiple regression equations.​.
