Role of Circulating C Reactive Protein in Thyroid Disorders
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: High sensitive C– reactive protein (hs-CRP) is an important sensitive inflammatory marker. Serum level of hs-CRP is not a routine investigation parameter to diagnose thyroid disorders, although many thyroid conditions involve inflammation. In the present study, the level of the hs-CRP and its association with thyroid disorders were assessed. Material & Methods: A total of 92 males and 112 females, from the age group of 20 to 55 year were selected for the study. Estimation of hs-CRP was done on semi auto analyzer (Robonikread well touch ) by Enzyme immunoassay technique, the serum was also assayed for T3, T4 & TSH by enzyme linked fluorescence assay ( ELFA) technique using Vidas auto –analyzer. Result: In our study we have found the Value of T3 in cases is 1.13± 0.88 nmol/L is high as compared to control group value 1.04± 0.28 nmol/L, Value of T4 in cases is 90.64 ±59.87 nmol/L as compared to control group value 92.47± 12.91 nmol/L, Values of TSH in cases is 7.15± 6.58 mIU/L is very high as compared to control group value 2.27 ±1.06 mIU/L. During our study we have also found values of hs CRP in cases 2.86± 0.97 mg/L as compared to control 1.89 ±0.62 mg/L Conclusion: Our study findings suggest that abnormal thyroid hormones level interfere with the serum levels of hs–CRP which can have the implications related to Cardio vascular diseases.
