[Risk factors for renal dysfunction in patients with hypothyroidism]
Abstract:
SUMMARY In order to study the features of kidney function in patients with hypothyroidism, examined 84 patients with primary hypothyroidism. Of the patients 46 patients had postoperative hypothyroidism in 38--hypothyroidism is autoimmune thyroiditis in the background (AIT). According to our results, in patients with manifest hypothyroidism is present renal dysfunction, which is manifested by increased serum creatinine and a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR),the development and progression of which contributes to the presence of risk factors in patients--hyperlipidemia, excessive body weight and abdominal obesity, which is a pronounced in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Stated that more meaningful indicators of dyslipidemia associated with major manifestations of abdominal obesity as defined by waist circumference (OT) ((96.58 ± 1.70) and (98.73 ± 3.35) cm) and higher body mass index (BMI).

Renal Failure: Dose Adjustments
Reduced renal clearance and elimination rate are common outcomes of renal impairment. These alterations lead to a prolonged elimination half-life and an altered apparent volume of distribution for drugs. As a result, dosage adjustments are typically necessary to maintain optimal drug levels in the body.
However, dosage adjustments...

Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...
