Integrated Evaluation of Thyroid Function, Lipid Profile, Inflammation, and Oxidative Stress in Patients with Hypothyroidism

Abstract

Hypothyroidism is associated with metabolic abnormalities that extend
beyond thyroid hormone deficiency and may contribute to increased cardiovascular
risk. Objective: To evaluate thyroid function tests, lipid profile parameters, high-
sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and oxidative stress markers in patients with
hypothyroidism compared with healthy controls, and to analyze their interrelationships.
