title: [Thyroid gland function in obesity].
abstract: It is reported on in vitro tests of the thyroid gland in 7 males with normal weight and 9 adipose ones. No clear difference was found in the two groups. The TSH level, too, after TRH stimulation is not significantly different so that a latent primary hypothyroidism cannot be ascertained.
