EVALUATION OF MANNOSE BINDING LECTIN LEVEL AND THYROID FUNCTIONS IN PATIENTS WITH HYPERTHYROIDISM DISEASE
Journal Title: Advance Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Discoveries - Year 2017, Vol 15, Issue 7
Abstract
Objective: The study aimed to evaluate thyroid function and mannose binding lectin level in Sudanese patients with hyperthyroidisms disease in comparison with apparently healthy controls. Methods: This is an analytical, hospital based- case control study conducted on 50 Sudanese patients with hyperthyroidism and 100 apparently healthy control groups between the periods from January 2016 to December 2016. Results: The study showed a highly significant difference (P=0.009) between the means and SD of serum levels of MBL (ng/ml) of the test hyperthyroidism group and the control group (1119.4±137.9 ng/ml) versus (1046.6±133.2 ng/ml), respectively. Conclusion: There was increased level of serum mannose binding lectin in Hyperthyroidism patients. There was a significant negative correlation between the serum levels of TSH and the serum MBL level in hyperthyroidism patients.. Readability of copy is of paramount importance.
