title: [State of iodine metabolism in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy].
abstract: Using a radioisotope concurrent analysis the authors studied the concentration of general thyroxine (T4), the coefficient of effective thyroxine, the equivalent content of free thyroxine in the blood serum and the fixating capabilities of plasma protein in relation to T3 in patients with temporal epilepsy. The study depicted complex changes of the hormonal activity of the thyroid gland. Considering the amount of the index of free thyroxine and coefficient of effective thyroxine, the state of the thyroid gland in cases of dissociated indices was qualified as hypo-, hyper- and euthyroid (respectively in 3, 8 and 10 patients). The authors discuss the possible pathogenetical significance of changes in the hormonal activity of the thyroid gland.
