title: [The functional state of the pituitary-thyroid gland system in patients with eczema].
abstract: The function of the hypophyseo-thyroid system has been examined by radioimmunoassays in 185 patients suffering from eczema. In 62% of patients thyroid function has been found increased. The findings evidence a relationship between the severity of thyroid dysfunction and the clinical pattern of the disease. Experiments with guinea pigs in whom hyperthyrosis has been induced have demonstrated that thyroxine can induce allergic DNCB-dermatitis in guinea pigs.
