Abstract

Objectives: Thyroid diseases and type 2 diabetes mellitus are two abundant diseases in general population. In this study, we evaluated the frequency of thyroid diseases in type 2 diabetic patients. Patients and Methods: The study included 306 type 2 diabetic patients, who were followed up in Trakya University Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism Disorders. All patients had thyroid function tests, antithyroglobulin antibody values, antithyroid peroxidase values, and thyroid imaging (scintigraphy and/or ultrasonography). Results: A total of 38 (12.4%) patients had thyroid diseases with the following distribution: 29 (9.5%) Hashimoto thyroiditis, five (1.7%) multinodular goitre, three (%1) Graves' disease, and one toxic solitary adenoma (0.3%). Conclusion: We found that thyroid diseases in type 2 diabetics were seen as frequent as in general population. We suggest that there is no need to screen type 2 diabetics for thyroid diseases, hypothyroid in particular, that increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases, in addition to the recommended screening of the general population in guidelines.

Özet

Amaç: Tiroid hastalıkları ve tip 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) toplumda sık görülen iki hastalıktır. Bu çalışmada, tip 2 diyabetik olgularda tiroid hastalıklarının sıklığını inceledik. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Trakya Üniversitesi Endokrinoloji Bilim Dalında takip edilen tip 2 DM hastalarından tiroid fonksiyon testleri, anti-tiroglobulin antikoru, anti-tiroid peroksidaz antikoru ve tiroid ultrasonografi ve/veya sintigrafi sonuçları bulunan 306'sı retrospektif olarak incelendi. Bulgular: Yirmi dokuz (%9.5) olguda Hashimoto tiroiditi, beşinde (%1.7) multinodüler guatr, üçünde (Graves hastalığı (%1) ve bir olguda (%0.3) toksik soliter adenom olmak üzere toplam 38 (%12.4) olguda tiroid hastalığı belirlendi. Sonuç: Yapılan inceleme sonucunda tip 2 DM olgularında tiroid hastalıklarına genel popülasyondakine benzer sıklıkla rastlandığını tespit ettik. Tip 2 DM'li hastaların, kardiyovasküler hastalık eğilimi yaratan başta hipotiroidi olmak üzere tiroid hastalıkları açısından genel popülasyon için geçerli olan öneriler dışında ayrıca taranmasına gerek olmadığı sonucuna vardık.
