This study was performed to compare serum lipid level and common carotid artery IMT among patients with overt hypothyroidism, subclinical hypothyroidism and euthyroidism. Methods: Patients with newly-diagnosed subclinical (n=32) and overt (n=32) hypothyroidism were selected for this study. All of the patients and an age- and sex-matched euthyroidism cohort were checked for clinical characteristics and serum lipid levels. Common carotid artery IMT was also measured using high resolution B-mode ultrasonography. Results: Statistically significant differences were observed between the total cholesterol levels of patients with subclinical hypothyroidism and those with euthyroidism. When common carotid artery IMT measured by ultrasonography, subclinical (0.67 ± 0.11 mm) and overt (0.71 ± 0.12 mm)) hypothyroidism showed significantly increased mean IMT compared to that of euthyroidism (0.58 ± 0.07 mm, P < 0.05, respectively), but no differences were found between subclinical and overt hypothyroidism. Conclusion: We concluded that subclinical hypothyroidism is related to increased common carotid artery IMT as well as dyslipidemia. Therefore, we recommend that treatment principle of subclinical hypothyroidism be established through large-scale, prospective studies performed to determine the effect of thyroid hormone replacement on the reduction of common carotid artery IMT.

Monzani 등 [22] 은무증상갑상선기능저하증환자에서이상지질혈증을동반하였을때총경동맥내중막두께가증가함을보고한바있다. 본연구에서도무증상갑상선기능저하증환자에서정상군에비해콜레스테롤농도가증가되어있었으며, 다중회귀분석에서도평균내중막두께와트리글리세리드농도가관련이있음을보여주고있어, 갑상선기능저하증에서의내중막두께증가에이상지질혈증이중요한역할을할것으로추측할수있다. 최근까지본연구에참여한일부환자 (6명) 에서 12개월간추적관찰한결과갑상선호르몬투여후총콜레스테롤및트리글리세리드수치가유의하게감소하였고, 이와더불어평균및최대내중막두께가감소된것을확인할수있어갑상선기능저하증에서지질대사이상이동맥경화증발생의중요한기전이라생각할수있다 (data not shown). 갑상선기능저하증과더불어무증상갑상선기능저하증이심혈관질환및이와관련된사망률증가의위험인자임을밝히는연구결과가보고되고있으나 [23,24], 아직까지도무증상갑상선기능저하증환자에서적극적인갑상선호르몬투여를시행할것인지에대하여는논란이있다. 그이유는죽상동맥경화증관련질환의발병에이상지질혈증외에여러위험인자들이관련되어있을뿐아니라, 이전의연구들에서무증상갑상선기능저하증환자의이상지질혈증동반여부가

5 대한내분비학회지 : 제 21 권제 6 호 2006 분명치않았기때문이다. 또한갑상선호르몬투여로인해무증상갑상선기능항진증이생기는경우에는골밀도의감소및그에따를골절위험도가증가할수있고 [25], 심방세동이발생할위험성이증가된다는보고가있어 [26], 과치료로인한부작용의가능성이있다는것도하나의이유가될수있다. 그러나 Shong 등 [19] 과 Kim 등 [27] 의연구에따르면무증상갑상선기능저하증환자에서갑상선호르몬투여후총콜레스테롤과 LDL 콜레스테롤이유의하게감소하였으며, Monzani 등 [22] 은무증상갑상선기능저하증환자를대상으로갑상선호르몬투여후추적관찰한총경동맥내중막두께가의미있게감소함을보고한바있어, 갑상선기능검사를주기적으로시행하면서 TSH가억제되지않는용량으로갑상선호르몬을투여한다면무증상갑상선기능저하증환자에서죽상동맥경화증으로인한심혈관질환의발생을예방하는데도움이될것으로생각된다. 그러나본연구는몇가지의제한점을가지고있다. 첫째, 본연구는총 94명의갑상선기능저하증, 무증상갑상선기능저하증및정상대조군을대상으로한소규모의단면연구로, 갑상선기능저하증과동맥경화증의연관성과관련기전을연구하기위해좀더많은환자를참여시킨대규모연구가필요하다. 또한무증상갑상선기능저하증환자에서갑상선호르몬투여후장기추적관찰을통하여총경동맥내중막두께의변화및이에따른죽상동맥경화증관련질환의발생률과사망률등을관찰하는전향적연구가필요하다. 둘째, 본연구에서는지질수치만을관찰하였으나, 아포지단백 B, CRP 등과같은죽상동맥경화증및심혈관질환의위험인자들과갑상선기능과의연관관계를연구한다면, 갑상선기능저하증과동맥경화증관련질환과의연관성을자세히알아보는데좀더도움이될것으로생각된다. 결론적으로본연구를통하여무증상갑상선기능저하증에서혈중지질수치가정상대조군과비교하였을때의미있는차이를보이며, 총경동맥내중막두께역시유의하게증가함이확인되었다. 향후무증상갑상선기능저하증환자를대상으로대규모전향적연구를시행하여무증상갑상선기능저하증에서심혈관질환의위험도를감소시키는치료방침을확립하는임상적근거와자료가필요할것으로생각된다. 요약연구배경 : 현성갑상선기능저하증환자에서이상지질혈증이많이동반되는반면무증상갑상선기능저하증이혈중지질대사에미치는영향은다양하게보고되고있다. 총경동맥내중막두께는죽상동맥경화증관련질환에서이를예측하는독립적인위험인자로갑상선기능저하증에서증가된다. 본연구는한국인에서무증상갑상선기능저하증환자와정상대조군사이에혈중지질수치및총경동맥내중막두께 를비교하고자수행되었다. 대상및방법 : 2004년 5월부터 2005년 5월까지분당차병원내분비내과내원당시시행한갑상선기능검사상최초로진단된무증상갑상선기능저하증및현성갑상선기능저하증환자와정상대조군을대상으로임상적특징및혈중지질수치를확인하고, 고해상도초음파기로총경동맥내중막두께를측정하였다. 결과 : 갑상선기능저하증및무증상갑상선기능저하증환자군과정상대조군사이에통계적으로의미있는임상적특징의차이는보이지않았다. 혈중지질수치는무증상갑상선기능저하증환자군의총콜레스테롤이정상대조군에비해유의하게증가함이확인되었다. 총경동맥의평균내중막두께는갑상선기능저하증 (0.71 ± 0.12 mm) 및무증상갑상선기능저하증 (0.67 ± 0.11 mm) 모두에서정상대조군에비해유의한증가소견을보였다 (0.58 ± 0.07 mm, P < 0.05, respectively). 결론 : 본연구를통하여무증상갑상선기능저하증에서혈중지질수치및총경동맥내중막두께가정상대조군에비해의미있게증가함이확인되었다. 향후더많은무증상갑상선기능저하증환자를대상으로한전향적연구를통해무증상갑상선기능저하증의치료방침을확립하는것이필요하다. 참고문헌 1.
