Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate clinical significance of change of serum thyroid hormone level in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and old myocardial infarction (OMI) .Methods :Clinical data of 52 STE‐MI patients (STEMI group) and 48 OMI patients (OMI group) hospitalized in our department of cardiology were retrospectively analyzed .Automatic chemiluminescent analyzer was used to quantitatively measure thyroid hormone levels in two groups .Results:Compared with OMI group ,there were significant reductions in serum levels of free triiodothyronine [FT3 ,(4.45 ± 1.09) pmol/L vs .(3.03 ± 0.14) pmol/L] ,free thyroxine [FT4 ,(18.53 ± 3.89) pmol/L vs .(11.83 ± 0.53) pmol/L] and thyrotropic‐stimulating hormone [TSH ,(1.85 ± 1.04)μIU/L vs .(0.26 ± 0.13)μIU/L] in STEMI group ,P<0.01 all .Conclusion:Thyroid hormone levels of STEMI patients are significant‐ly higher than those of OMI patients , serum thyroid hormone levels may reflect severity of coronary vessel lesions in patients with myocardial infarction.
