Relationships between thyroid function and autoimmunity with metabolic derangement at the onset of type 1 diabetes: a cross-sectional and longitudinal study
Conclusions
Thyroid function at T1DM onset is mainly influenced by metabolic derangement, irrespective of thyroid autoimmunity. Antithyroid antibodies evaluation at T1DM onset may be helpful to define which patients are at higher risk of developing hypothyroidism.
