Thyroid function and antimicrosomal antibody during the course of XXXX .

@entity1 @entity1375 @entity2743 @entity6402 @entity1374
The thyroid function and antithyroidal antibody were studied in 17 @entity1 with @entity1374 unrelated to pregnancy. The antimicrosomal hemagglutination antibody (MCHA) was negative in ten of them (group I) and was positive in seven (group II). At one month after the @entity2743 , thyroid function became normal in both groups. At two months after the onset of @entity2743 , in group I T4 (8.1 +/- 1.8 micrograms/dl, Mean +/- SD), T3 (113 +/- 25 ng/dl) and TSH were normal. At that time T4 (2.8 +/- 2.2 micrograms/dl) was significantly decreased (p less than 0.001) compared with those of group I and the levels of TSH were strikingly increased in 6 @entity1 in group II. The level of @entity6402 was not different from that of group I. Therefore MCHA was negative in @entity1 who did not develop @entity1375 and MCHA was positive in @entity1 who developed @entity1375 . The development of @entity1375 two months after @entity2743 and positive MCHA are correlated. The Tg was elevated in 7 out of 13 @entity1 (54%) with negative antithyroglobulin hemagglutination antibody and in the remainder was normal during @entity2743 . The discrepancy between the level of Tg and thyroid hormones was discussed.
