Objevtive: The aim of this study was to evaluate
the incidence of metabolic syndrome, a risk factor for chronic diseases such as
cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus and stroke, in patients with
subclinical hypothyroidism.

Methods: A total of 108 patients with
subclinical hypothyroidism followed in the outpatient clinic of Ordu University
Faculty of Medicine Training and Research Hospital between 2015-2018 were
included in the study. Height, waist circumference, weight, blood pressure, High
Density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and triglyceride levels and fasting blood
glucose levels were recorded from the archive records of the patients. Body
Mass Index (BMI) was calculated. Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) diagnoses were made
according to the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel
III (NCEP ATP III) guidelines.

Results: Of the 108
patients included in the study, 74 (68.5%) were female and 34 (31.5%) were
male. The mean age of the female patients was 38.3±12.5 years and the mean age
of the male patients was 40.5±11.7 years. In this study, the prevalence of MetS
was 42.6% (47.3% in females and 30.8% in males) in patients with subclinical
hypothyroidism. MetS incidence was 1.5 times higher in female patients than in
male patients. Among all patients, the most common MetS component was low HDL
cholesterol (54.6%) and abdominal obesity (52.8%).

Conclusion:
The incidence of MetS was higher in female patients with subclinical
hypothyroidism than in male patients. In addition, close follow-up of patients
with subclinical hypothyroidism in terms of Metabolic Syndrome, which is a risk
factor for many chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular
diseases and stroke, will benefit in reducing the mortality of patients.
