Perfil dos hormônios tireoidianos nas síndromes coronarianas agudas

Abstract: Objective: To describe thyroid hormone profile in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), divided into two groups: 1) unstable angina and/or non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (UA/NSTEMI); 2) ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI), as well as in patients that progressed or not to death, according to the groups.Methods: Seventy ACS patients admitted to the coronary care unit of the Hospital dos Servidores do Estado, Rio de Janeiro, were prospectively studied.

“…This pattern of thyroid hormone alterations was described in several scenarios of acute or chronic illness ( 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ). In addition, there is a significant correlation between altered thyroid hormone levels and the severity and duration of disease ( 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ). Several studies found an association between low T3 and disease severity.…”

“…T3 levels both on time 0 (admission) or time 1 had a good accuracy to predict short- and long-term mortality, comparable to other prognostic validated clinical scores. Accordingly, it was previously suggested that adding T3 to other severity scores ( 9 , 29 , 41 ). Moreover, serum T3 is an easy, reliable, and applicable test that can, individually or in combination with the other severity scores, increase the sensitivity to highlight those patients with a worse prognosis.…”

“…Several studies have reported about NTIS in subjects with AMI [ 3 , 6 , 7 , 10 ]. In AMI condition, decrease of free T3 and increase of reverse T3 have been documented [ 15 , 16 ]. In animal models, Ojamaa et al [ 17 ] showed that low T3 levels fell within 1 week of AMI and remained > 40% lower than those in controls 4 weeks after AMI.…”
