Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics, 10/19/09
Huang C–C et al. – The overall prevalence of suspected hypothyroidism was 9.2% among asymptomatic older people in Taiwan, which was significantly lower than in Caucasians. The prevalence of suspected hypothyroidism may reach 25.9% if the TSH cutoff was lowered to 2.5microIU/ml. Further study is needed to determine the normal reference range of serum TSH in older people.
