Keywords:
Subclinical hypothyroidism, treatment, method, ischemic heart disease.Abstract
Subclinical hypothyroidism (SH) is a common occurrence in the elderly population. Even a slight thyroid dysfunction can contribute to the advancement of heart ischemic disease. The findings from coronary angiography (CG) indicate the presence of significant coronary atherosclerosis. Therefore, it is crucial to compare the CG results with the TSH levels of patients with heart ischemic disease.
