Diabetes Mellitus (DM), Insulin Resistance, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone
Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a common endocrine disorder in the world and its prevalence of thyroid dysfunction is increasing at the same time as insulin secretion is controlled by the thyroid hormone. Reduction in glucose-induced insulin secretion by beta cells is observed in hypothyroidism, and the insulin resistance will be increased in thyrotoxicosis. subclinical hypothyroidism in Diabetes mellitus patients are at risk of complications like neuropathy and cardiovascular events. Hence, there is a need to detect subclinical hypothyroidism in diabetic patients. 50 DM patients were screened for thyroid function studies viz T3, T4 & TSH. 50 age and sex matched healthy volunteers were treated as controls and the results were correlated with fasting blood glucose levels. The results showed a significant difference among the controls and the patients. It may be concluded from this study that there is urge to screen thyroid disorders in DM patients in order to avoid the further complications.
