Abstract:Objective To observe the clinical results and changes in TSH , FT3 , FT4 , TPOAb and TGAb of patients with hypothyroidism in treatment with levothyroxine and selenium supplement .Methods Ninety-two cases of patients with hypothyroidism were selected , which were treated in hospital from March 2015 to March 2016 , and they were divided into the observation group (46 cases) and control group (46 cases).The patients of control group were treated with levothyroxine tab-lets ( an initial dose of 25 μg, 1 time /d, dose adjustment after two weeks of continuous treatment , increasing 25μg each time, until the optimum effect ) .On the basis of control group , the patients of observation group were treated with selenium yeast tablets (50 μg, orally, 2 times /d).The patients of two groups were all treated for 6months.Compare the clinical effi-cacy and changes of the levels of free three triiodothyronine ( FT3 ) , free four triiodothyronine ( FT4 ) , thyroid stimulating hor-mone (TSH), thyroid peroxidase antibody ( TPOAb), thyroglobulin antibody ( TGAb), high density lipoprotein protein (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) of two groups.Results After the appropriate treatment , the patients of the observation group got a total effective rate of 95 .7%, which was significantly better than the 82.6%of the control group (χ2 =4.039, P =0.044);In the terms of TSH, TPOAb, TGAb, LDL-C,TC and TG, the patients of two groups were all significantly decreased than before (observation group:t =45.159, t =6.243, t =9.266, t =17.969, t =17.146, t =17.669,control group:t =44.144, t =3.971, t =7.168, t =12.415, t =9.402, t =10.621, P <0.05), and the patients of the observation group got more significant decline ( t =1.896, t =2.685, t =2.061, t =7.058, t =10.636, t =8.724, P <0.05); In the terms of FT3,the patients of two groups were all significantly increased than before (observation group:t =14.524, t =7.673,control group:t =12.723, t =5.903, P <0.05), and in the terms of FT3 ,the patients of the observation group got more significant increase ( t =2.151, P <0.05);there were headache , gas-trointestinal discomfort, chest tightness, tachycardia, allergic reactions and other adverse reactions occurred in both two groups, but there were no statistically significant between the two groups (χ2 =1.170,χ2 =0.474,χ2 =0.000,χ2 =1.593,χ2 =2.224, P >0.05).Conclusion With treating patients with hypothyroidism , levothyroxine and selenium supplement can significantly improve the clinical efficacy , effectively improve the levels of thyroid and autoantibodies , and it is also safe and reliable, which makes it worthy of promotion .
