摘要
To evaluate the association of thyroid immunity with cardiovascular symptoms and body mass index (BMI). Methods. Four hundred, and sixty-five primary care patients underwent ultrasound evaluation of the thyroid gland, with hypo-echoic thyroid pattern indicating autoimmune involvement. BMI and blood pressure (BP) were the main outcomes. Results. Men and women with hypo-echoic thyroid had higher BMI and higher BP in comparison to patients with normo-echoic thyroid. Among women with hypo-echoic thyroid, only those who were premenopausal had higher BMI and higher BP in comparison to women with normo-echoic thyroid. Conclusions. Thyroid immunity is related to higher BMI and higher BP in men and women, especially in. Premenopausal women.
