- W2020178106 abstract "Background: It is presumed that free T4 and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels are related to obesity, but the findings are inconsistent. In this study we evaluated T4 and TSH concentrations between normal children and those with obesity and possible correlations between body mass index (BMI) and these markers. Methods: In this prospective study, 190 children who were overweight and obese and 133 children without obesity of the same age and sex were evaluated. Thyroid function tests (TSH, total T4, free T4 and free T3) were measured in all subjects in both groups. Thyroid antibodies (thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin) were determined among those with elevated TSH levels. Results: Levels of TSH and total T4 were significantly higher in children with obesity compared with the control group. Subclinical hypothyroidism was significantly higher in children with obesity (14.7%) compared with normal subjects (6.8%, p = 0.02). Among children with obesity and increased TSH levels, 10.7% had positive thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin antibodies. There was significantly positive correlation between BMI z score and TSH level ( r = 0.198, p < 0.001) and T4 level ( r = 0.18, p = 0.001). Conclusion: TSH and total T4 levels are increased in children who are overweight or obese and are a common finding in these children, but the incidence of thyroid antibodies is low in these patients and so could not be accounted for by thyroid autoimmunity. Due to these findings it is possible that increased TSH and total T4 levels are a consequence of obesity and could be reduced by decreasing BMI." @default.
