“…In our study in patients with T2DM and AITD, the majority of study participants were women, as well as in the control group. It is similar to a study conducted by Meng et al [15] where women had a higher incidence of thyroid dysfunction than men, as well as to studies by Ranabir et al [12]. However, in the group of respondents, a significant influence of the females on TSH was found.…”

“…Our study included patients with T2DM with an AITD with a mean age of 58.7 years and without AITD with a mean age of 59.81 years. Research has shown that the prevalence of T2DM increases with age, which corresponds to most studies [12], and autoimmune thyroiditis is also characterized by increased age-related prevalence. This is in line with a pattern published by Chinenye et al in a multicenter study involving patients with diabetes [13].…”

“…Recently, one of the studies conducted in the population of Manipur reported that there were no correlations between BMI and TSH, thereby concludes "there is unlikely to be any benefit in maintaining TSH in the lower half of the normal range with regard to weight loss". [21] In corroborating with this finding, there was no correlation between BMI and TSH in the present study. Participants in their study populations were among euthyroid, subclinical hypothyroidism and hypothyroidism individuals while our study participants in normal and overweight/obese without metabolic disorders.…”
