Background: Among the various functions of liver, one function is synthesis of carrier proteins and metabolism of hormones and liver diseases, have been shown to be associated with various endocrinal disturbances. Aim of the study was to evaluate the spectrum of chronic liver disease and association between thyroid profile and severity of liver damage at a tertiary hospital. Material and Methods: Present study was single-center, hospital based, case-control study, conducted in 88 cases of liver cirrhosis/ chronic liver disease and 88 age/sex matched healthy controls (randomly selected from relatives attending OPD with patients) were studied. Thyroid function tests were done and compared among cases and controls. Results: In present study 88 cases of liver cirrhosis/ chronic liver disease and 88 healthy controls were studied. Mean age and gender were comparable in cases and controls and difference was not statistically significant. Most of cases had alcoholic liver cirrhosis (80.7 %), rest had non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis (12.5%) and chronic viral hepatitis (6.8%). As per Child-Pugh Score, most cases were from Child-Pugh B (42%), followed by Child-Pugh C (31.8%) and Child-Pugh A (26.1%). In present study free T3, free T4 and TSH were compared between cases and controls, abnormal values were noted in cases and statistically significant difference was noted. Serum thyroid profile abnormalities were noted as per advancement in Child-Pugh Score Classes and difference was statistically significant for free T3 and free T4. Conclusion: Thyroid function test abnormalities in circulating thyroid hormone concentrations were noted in patients liver cirrhosis as compared to healthy subjects and severe abnormalities were associated with advanced Child Pugh score.

Introduction: Chronic Liver Disease affects most of the organs in the human body. Various studies have been done regarding chronic liver disease, but not many studies are done on the assessment of thyroid function in chronic liver disease. Present study thus aimed at assessing the thyroid functions in chronic liver disease patients. Materials & Methods: A hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital Study included 52 patients presenting with Chronic liver disease fullling the study criteria using purposive conservative sampling. Detailed examination was done for all cases including thyroid function tests. All analysis was carried out by using SPSS software version 21. Overall prevalence of thyroid dysfunction among chronic liver disease patients was 36.5%. A Results: signicant positive correlation was observed between severity of chronic liver disease and TSH levels (r-0.60) while an inverse correlation was observed with T3 and T4 levels (p<0.01). A signicant association was observed between presence of thyroid dysfunction among chronic liver disease patients who had hepatic encephalopathy (66.7% vs 32.6%; p<0.05). Also, a signicant association was observed with severity of chronic liver disease. Present study observed Conclusion: that derangement in thyroid prole is common in patients with cirrhosis of liver. A statistically signicant change was observed in serum T3 and T4 levels that tend to fall with progressive severity of chronic liver disease irrespective of aetiology. Thus all cirrhotic patients should undergo thyroid function evaluation as these patients are denitely associated with development of thyroid dysfunction.

Conventional Tests

The investigation of thyroid disease in the presence of chronic liver disease (CLD) is difficult. Conventional tests are influenced by chronic illness and abnormal concentrations of binding proteins. A three tier system is normally used: thyroxine (T4), then T3 or TSH and an index for binding proteins. The recently introduced TSH immunoradiometric assays (IRMA) offer the potential of a single test assessment of thyroid function. This was assessed by the measurement of T4, T3, THBC and the free thyroxine indices in subjects with CLD. Conventional tests showed a high number of abnormal T4 values but binding indices were normal. The TSH-IRMA results were all normal. TSH-IRMA assays are rapid, easy to use and cheap. They remove the uncertainties in assessing thyroid function in CLD and may be the test of choice.
