Levels of serum creatine phosphokinase in thyroid disorders
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Biochemistry - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: The alteration in serum levels of triiodothyroinine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) in thyroid disorders is well established. Few studies have emphasized the role of serum creatine phosphokinase in thyroid disorders and its use as a marker in these disorders which is not well established. The present study was conducted to assess the level of serume creatine phosphokinase in thyroid disorders Methods: A case control study was done with 100 patients with thyroid disorder. triiodothyroinine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyriod stimulating hormone (TSH) and serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK) were measured. Results: Serum CPK levelswerefound to behigher in hypothyroid patients compare to healthy control. In contrast serum CPK levels in Hyperthyroid patients is significantly compare to controls Interpretations and conclusion: Serum levels of T3 and CPK have an inverse relation in thyroiddisorders and the estimation of CPK levels will be extremely valuable as an alternate marker for diagnosing. Hypothyroid and Hyperthyroid patients.
