Overview

Cross-sectional study shows lower serum vitamin D3 levels in hypothyroid patients, indicating its diagnostic potential.

Key Points

  • Hypothyroid patients had significantly lower vitamin D3 levels than healthy controls, with a mean of 12.45 ng/ml.
  • Vitamin D3 shows a sensitivity of 71% and specificity of 65% for diagnosing hypothyroidism.
  • Hypothyroidism was also associated with lower T3, T4, and calcium levels compared to controls.
  • Low serum vitamin D3 levels suggest a potential role in the pathophysiology of hypothyroidism.
