title: Thyroid function in hepatic schistosomiasis.
abstract: Serum thyroxine (T4), serum tri-iodothyronine (T3-uptake) and the free thyroxine index in 17 men suffering from hepatosplenic schistosomiasis did not differ significantly from those of ten healthy male controls. There was no correlation between these values and serum protein levels or liver function tests.
