Meta-analytic evidence for increased low-grade systemic inflammation and oxidative stress in hypothyroid patients. Can levothyroxine replacement therapy mitigate the burden?
ConclusionOverall, these meta-analyses reveal that screening for hs-CRP and MDA in hypothyroid patients as simple biomarkers of low-grade systemic inflammation and oxidative stress may become a useful tool to identify those at increased risk who may benefit most from early interventions.
