Lipid profile and levels of homocysteine, leptin, fibrinogen and C-reactive protein in hyperthyroid patients before and after treatment

Abstract

Objectives: The present study was carried out to deter­mine whether thyroid hormones affect lipid profile and levels of erithrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), serum total homocysteine (t-hcy), leptin, fibrinogen, C-reactive protein (CRP in patients with hyperthyroidism. Materials and methods: This study was carried out on 23 hyperthroid subjects (3 men / 20 women, mean age 41.8 ± 2.4 years). Serum levels of homocysteine, leptin, fibrinogen, CRP, total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipo­protein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cho­lesterol (LDL-C) and ESR were measured and body mass index (BMI) were calculated before and after treatment of hyperthyroidism. Results: Pretreatment t-hcy, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C levels and BMI of patients were significantly lower than those of the post-treatment (p
