Impact of Renal Function or Folate Status on Altered Plasma Homocysteine Levels in Hypothyroidism
Abstract
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for coronary, peripheral and cerebrovascular diseases. Moderately elevated total homocysteine (tHcy) levels have been reported in patients with overt hypothyroidism. Plasma tHcy concentration is affected by several physiological factors and is elevated under conditions of impaired folate and cobalamin status and in renal failure. The aim of this study was to assess plasma tHcy concentrations and...
