Abstract:
Objective To set up the reference ranges of thyroid hormones for pregnant and lactating woman in Zhejiang.Methods A total of 338 pregnancy,322 lactating women and 139 non-pregnant women (as a control) were selected from 1 079 women in 13 survey sites of Zhejiang as survey subjects,through the questionnaire survey and thyroid B-ultrasound tests from June 2010 to September 2010.The level of urinary iodine was measured by spectrophotometer,and the thyroid hormone [free triiodothyronine (FT3),free (unbound) thyroxin (FT4),triiodothyronine (T3),tetraiodothyronine (T4),thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)] was measured by automated chemiluminescence immunoassay.Analysis of thyroid hormone 95％ in pregnant women and lactating women.Results The median urinary iodine of all women investigated were in optimal urine levels (150-249 μg/L),which indicated they were in iodine sufficient status.The FT3 index of lactating women was higher than that of pregnant women and non pregnant women (Zlactating-pregnant =3.98,Zlactating-pregnant =2.46,all P ＜ 0.05);the FT4 index level of lactating women was higher than that of pregnant women and non pregnant women (Zlactating-pregnant =2.68,Zlactating-non-pregnant =2.25,all P ＜ 0.05);the T3 index level of lactating women was higher than that of pregnant women and non pregnant women (Zlactating-pregnant =3.51,Zlactating-non pregnant =2.41,all P ＜ 0.05);levels of T4 in lactating women was the highest (Zlactating-pregnant =2.30,Zlactating-pregnant =4.90,Zlactating-non pregnant =1.57,all P ＜ 0.05);TSH index of lactating women and non pregnant women were higher than that of pregnant women (Zlactating-pregnant =2.81,Zlactating-non pregnant =1.68,all P ＜ 0.05).And in pregnant,the 95％ medical reference interval of FT3 was 3.37-6.53 pmol/L,FT4 was 10.68-20.85 pmol/L,T3 was 1.40-2.79 nmol/L,T4 was 72.72-166.41 nmol/L,and TSH was 0.15-4.44 mU/L;in lactating woman,FT3 was 3.39-6.44 pmol/L,FT4 was 10.81-20.33 pmol/L,T3 was 1.44-2.77 nmol/L,T4 was 71.94-164.61 nmol/L,and TSH was 0.25-4.47 mU/L.Conclusion The thyroid hormone levels of pregnant and lactating women are different from those of non-pregnant women,therefore establishing reference data of thyroid hormones for pregnant and lactating women may be a very important step for clinical practice.
