Abstract

The prevalence of thyroid abnormalities was determined in 131 patients: group I = rheumatoid arthritis, 68 patients, group II = systemic immunological diseases (IIa Sjögren's syndrome, n = 6; IIb other rheumatic autoimmune disease, n = 17), group III = other rheumatic diseases n = 13 and control group (n = 27). Thyroid abnormalities (hypo, hyperthyroidism, nodular goiter) were frequent: 33.8% in group I, 100% in group IIa, 11.7% in group IIb. Hypothyroidism was present in 19.1% (group I), 50% (group IIa). 6% (group IIb). Autoimmune thyroiditis was found in 16.2% in group I, 100% in group IIa, 11.7% in group III. Thyroid diseases are frequent in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Therefore thyroid tests might be performed in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

类风湿关节炎患者甲状腺异常的患病率。

131例患者中甲状腺异常的患病率:I组=类风湿关节炎，68例，II组=全身性免疫性疾病(IIa Sjögren综合征，n = 6;ib组其他风湿性自身免疫性疾病(n = 17)， III组其他风湿性疾病(n = 13)和对照组(n = 27)。甲状腺异常(甲状腺功能减退、甲状腺功能亢进、结节性甲状腺肿)较为常见:I组33.8%，IIa组100%，IIb组11.7%。甲状腺功能减退19.1%(组I)， 50%(组IIa)。6% (IIb组)。自身免疫性甲状腺炎发生率为16.2%，IIa组为100%，III组为11.7%。甲状腺疾病是类风湿性关节炎患者的常见病。因此，甲状腺检查可用于类风湿关节炎患者。
