Different relationships between thyroid stimulating hormone and muscle strength according to sex and age in euthyroid Koreans (KNHANES 2014-2015).

CONCLUSIONS: In euthyroid Koreans, serum TSH levels were significantly associated with HGS only in men and this relation was found to depend significantly on age. These findings suggest that age has a distinct influence on the effect of even subtle change of thyroid function on muscle strength in men. PMID: 32438894 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
