A Study on Vitamin B12 Levels in Hypothyroid Patients Presenting to a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital
CONCLUSION: Thyroid hormones affect erythropoiesis, thus causing anemia in a deficient condition. In iodine sufficient areas, most common cause of hypothyroidism is autoimmune, predisposing individuals to other autoimmune diseases, one being pernicious anemia. In the studied anemic hypothyroid population, Vitamin B12 deficiency was found correlated with raised levels of serum anti-TPO and anti-Thyroglobulin antibodies. Supplementation of B12 may alleviate hypothyroid symptoms, thus making itself a novel addition in the routine hypothyroid prescription. References Aon M, Taha S, Mahfouz K, et al. Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) def...

A Case of Autoimmune Poly Glandular Glandular Syndrome Type 2 (Schmidt's Syndrome)
CONCLUSION: Autoimmune poly glandular syndrome can be treated with respective substitution therapy. Thyroxine therapy when initiated first may precipitate Addisonian crisis in patients with Schmidt's syndrome through increasing cortisol clearance and metabolic rate as evident in our case. Early detection of the disease and appropriate management may reduce morbidity and mortality significantly in the patients with autoimmune poly glandular syndrome.PMID:37116019 (Source: Journal of the Association of Physicians of India)
