Clinical and anthropometric data was collected from all participants. Whole blood samples were drawn in the morning after an overnight fasting for the measurement of serum TSH, free thyroxine (fT<sub>4</sub>), free triiothyronine (fT<sub>3</sub>), anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) levels, as well as lipid concentrations and glucose.</p><p><strong>Results</strong> TSH was higher in females than males. Stratified by TSH, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) level increased in subjects with TSH ≥2.5 uIU/mL (p = 0.003). In females, total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) level was significant lower in subjects with TSH <2.5uIU/mL. TSH was significantly associated with TC and LDL-c. In a multiple linear regression analysis (stepwise), TSH was positive associated with TC and LDL-c. Among all patients 49 (21.2%) were TPO antibody positive. The blood pressure and lipid levels were lower in TPO-Ab positive patients, however, the differences were not significantly.</p><p><strong>Conclusions.</strong> TSH was positively associated with serum TC and LDL-c in euthyroid women with type 2 DM. Analysis in the subgroup having TPO antibody assays demonstrating non-significantly lower TC levels among seropositive subjects was consistent with the above stated consideration for women as a whole. Further investigations are needed to understand the intimate mechanisms of lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetes with respect to thyroid function.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Key words:</strong> <strong>type 2 diabetes mellitus, thyroid parameters, lipids profile.</strong></p>}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Education, Health and Sport}, author={Yuzvenko, T.}, year={2016}, month={Mar.}, pages={227–232} }
