Thyroid status and mortality in nonagenarians from long-lived families and the general population

Abstract: The relationship between thyroid status and longevity has been investigated extensively. However, data on thyroid status and survival in old age is scarce. In this study we investigated associations of different parameters of thyroid status with mortality in nonagenarians, and whether these associations were different in nonagenarians from long-lived families than in nonagenarians from the general population. In total, 805 nonagenarians from the Leiden Longevity Study and 259 nonagenarians from the Leiden 85-p… Show more

“…TSH have a pervasive effect on many crucial functions, being associated with functional, cognitive and depression status, as well as survival/mortality in long-lived subjects (8,13,25,26) found similar (27) or increased (28,29) or decreased (30) in comparison with younger subjects.…”

“…On the other hand, experimental evidence suggests that the hypothyroid state may favour longevity by reducing metabolic rate, oxidative stress and cell senescence (9,10). Several clinical studies have been performed to investigate the role of thyroid function in the aging process obtaining contrasting results (11)(12)(13)(14). Indeed, nutritional status, concomitant illness and drug therapy can affect thyroid function in the elderly, making difficult the interpretation of the results.…”

“…Захворювання ЩЗ в осіб літнього віку трапляються вдвічі частіше, ніж серед населення інших вікових груп [24]. За фізіологічних умов у процесі старіння організму відбуваються певні порушення в тиреоїдному статусі, що визначає особливості клініки та перебігу основних тиреопатій.…”
