Background. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is known to affect the thyroid axis, including thyroid hormone metabolism. It has been established that a decrease in renal function can be combined with changes in thyroid function. Thyroid dysfunction also has implications for renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), tubular transport, electrolyte homeostasis, and glomerular structure. The purpose of the study was to determine the features of thyroid function in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and CKD and develop recommendations for hormonal testing of thyroid pathology. Materials and methods. One hundred and twenty-one patients with T1DM with CKD were divided into 3 groups: group 1 — 78 individuals with GFR ≤ 60 ml/min/1.73 m2, group 2 — 20 people receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT), group 3 — 23 patients after renal transplantation (RT) with adequate graft function (the duration of the renal transplant is 3.62 (1.47; 4.28) years). Results. In T1DM and CKD group, the diagnostic value of thyroid-stimulating hormone is reduced due to the absence of differences in its values with a decrease in T4 and T3. Free T3 is the most sensitive marker of thyroid dysfunction in CKD. Thyroid disorders in T1D and CKD patients have a non-immune genesis. T1DM patients on RRT after hemodialysis (HD) procedure have an increase in total and free T4 and free T3, consequently, monitoring of thyroid disorders should be done immediately after the HD session. The restoration of normal values of peripheral conversion index and free T3 occurs within 1–2 years after TR, depending on the duration of RRT receiving. After more than 3 post-transplantation years, there is an increase in peripheral conversion index, which characterizes the imbalance of peripheral thyroid hormones towards a decrease in free T3 with relatively stable free T4. Conclusions. Thyroid dysfunctions are typical for all stages of the pathological process in CKD in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus, including patients at the terminal stage and after successful kidney transplantation. The changes in thyroid hormones are associated with the RRT experience and can potentially affect the survival of patients.

Objective: Type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and thyroid dysfunction consider as main metabolic and endocrine disorders. In previous studies, individuals with T1DM were susceptible to Thyroid disorders. The prevalence of clinical and subclinical Thyroid dysfunction have noticeable importance especially regarding women and their related stigma. Methods: The presented survey, a case-control study evaluated the thyroid dysfunction among T1DM elderly women referred to diabetes clinic of Tohid Hospital in Sanandaj city. The whole blood samples were attained from all individuals and then the following tests were done: fasting blood-sugar (FBS), Serum TSH, anti-Thyroperoxidase (Anti-TPO) and Free T4.Results: The prevalence of Thyroid disorder in examined patients was 17 percent and autoimmune Thyroid dysfunction disorder, that examined by positive test-result of Anti-TPO showed up in 10.2 percent of patients. Prevalence of sub-clinical Hypothyroidism was 13.2 percent; the clinical Hypothyroidism were 7.3 percent. Based on our data 2.9 percent of T1DM have subclinical Hyperthyroidism and 1.4 percent have clinical Hyperthyroidism. In our study, increased TSH level and existence of Anti-TPO in TIDM patients might be regarded as an additional TIDM problem in studied disease.Conclusion: This study confirmed the association between autoimmune Thyroid dysfunction (based on positive Serum-test of Anti-TPO) and T1DM.

Background: The association of autoimmune thyroid disease with type 1 diabetes mellitus has been well documented across populations, with it being most prevalent immunological disease in patients with type 1 diabetes. The aim of this study was to ascertain the association between type 1 diabetes and thyroid dysfunction clinically, biochemically and immunologically.Methods: Serum TSH, free T3 and free T4 values were compared between cases of type 1 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetic age and sex matched controls. Cases of type 1 diabetes mellitus were further divided in two groups, depending upon the presence or absence of antibodies against thyroid peroxidase (Anti-TPO antibodies). Mean serum TSH, free T3, free T4 levels were compared between these two groups to find or refute any association.Results: Abnormal thyroid function was reported in total 6 (14.63%) cases. Comparison of TSH, T3 and T4 levels showed statistically insignificant differences (p<0.05) in TSH levels (µIU/ml) (Cases- 3.44±2.41, controls- 3.34±0.78); T3 levels (pg/ml) (cases- 3.31±1.06, controls- 3.36±0.52) and T4 levels (ng/dl) (cases- 0.92±0.31, controls- 0.95±0.23). Total of 6 cases (14.63%) cases of type 1 diabetes mellitus were positive for anti-TPO antibodies (4- females, 2- males).Conclusions: Thyroid dysfunction is more common amongst type 1 diabetics, especially females. Estimation of anti-TPO antibodies is valuable in detecting thyroid dysfunction in type 1 diabetics.
