BACKGROUND: we investigated the relationships between thyroid function and @entity28 severity, @entity209 ( @entity209 ) and @entity209 components in 260 @entity28 @entity1 and adolescents 10-17 years of age. OBJECTIVES: we aimed to determine the association of thyroid functions with @entity28 severity and the components of @entity209 ( @entity209 ) in pediatric @entity28 @entity1 . METHODS: only @entity28 @entity1 and adolescents were included, and divided the @entity28 @entity1 into three groups according to body mass index (BMI)- @entity214 quartiles. The first quartile was group 1, the second and third quartiles were group 2, and the fourth quartile was group 3. Group 3 indicated severe @entity28 . The modified WHO criteria adapted for @entity1 were used to diagnose @entity209 . We assessed anthropometric data and serum biochemical parameters, including the lipid profile and fasting @entity413 (FG), insulin, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free @entity1955 (fT4), and free @entity1954 (fT3) levels. Blood pressure (BP) was measured with a standard digital sphygmomanometer. The homeostasis model assessment of @entity1720 was calculated to determine @entity1720 ( @entity1720 ). RESULTS: TSH level was significantly higher in @entity28 @entity1 with @entity209 than that in the others (p = 0.045). Mean TSH level was not different among the BMI- @entity214 groups (p = 0.590). TSH levels and the fT3/fT4 ratio were not different in @entity1 with @entity2299 , @entity1720 or @entity101 (p = 0.515, 0.805, 0.973, 0.750, 0.515, and 0.805, respectively). DISCUSSION: @entity28 severity does not affect TSH level or the fT3/fT4 ratio in @entity28 @entity1 and adolescents. @entity1720 is in close relationship with TSH level. Elevated TSH level is a risk factor for @entity209 .
