Abstract
Cardiometabolic risk factors like abdominal obesity, hyperglycemia, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, elevated triglycerides, and hypertension are defined as metabolic syndrome (MetS), which represents one of the most frequent endocrine disorders particularly in a society with increasing weight problems. As more and more evidence is accumulated that thyroid hormones affect components of the MetS, the present review aims to summarize the rapidly expanding knowledge on the pathophysiological interaction between thyroid hormone status and MetS. The review is based on a PubMed search for combinations of thyroid hormone action and MetS, blood pressure, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, glucose, diabetes mellitus, body weight, or visceral fat. A special focus was given for manuscripts published after 2000 but we included seminal papers published before year 2000 as well.
期刊介绍:
A series of integrated overviews on cutting-edge topics
New sophisticated technologies and methodological approaches in diagnostics and therapeutics have led to significant improvements in identifying and characterizing an increasing number of medical conditions, which is particularly true for all aspects of endocrine and metabolic dysfunctions. Novel insights in endocrine physiology and pathophysiology allow for new perspectives in clinical management and thus lead to the development of molecular, personalized treatments. In view of this, the active interplay between basic scientists and clinicians has become fundamental, both to provide patients with the most appropriate care and to advance future research.
