Thyroid hormone within the normal range is associated with left ventricular mass in patients with hypertension
Journal of the American Society of Hypertension, 07/27/2012
Iida M et al. – In these patients, fT3 (standard β = 0.13) and fT4 (standard β = 0.11) positively, and TSH (standard β = –0.15) inversely correlated with LVMI in the multiple linear regression model. Thyroid hormone may be associated with LV remodeling independent of renal and LV dysfunctions in hypertensive patients with euthyroidism.
