Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The first aim of the study is to elucidate the prevalence of hyperlipidemia due to hypothyroidism and/or subclinical hypothyroidism in patients with hyperlipidemia. The second aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of replacement therapy with thyroid hormone (T4) on the serum lipid levels, blood pressure, and body weight.

The first aim of the study is to clarify the prevalence of hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism in patients with hyperlipidemia by the screening with plasma thyroid hormone and TSH. The second aim of the study is to elucidate the effects of replacement therapy on the blood lipid levels, blood pressure, and body weight. Both outpatients and in-patients with hyperlipidemia without severe complications and who gave informed consent of the study are enrolled. Patients fulfilled the following criteria: 1) diagnosis of hypercholesterolemia based upon the diagnostic criteria of the Japan Atherosclerosis Society and 2) over the age of 20 years. Exclusion criteria includes 1) Patients with known thyroid hormone abnormalities, 2) Patients with hyperlipidemia due to known diseases other than the thyroid diseases, 3) Pregnancy, 4) Patients under steroid hormone treatment, 5) Unstable stage of the cardiovascular diseases, 6) Conditions when doctors assume inappropriate to enroll, respectively. Those patients with hypothyroidism including subclinical hypothyroidism are subjected to thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Effects of the treatment were evaluated after 4weeks, 12 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months of treatment. Physical findings, vital sign, biochemical data, and thyroid hormones were investigated.
