title: [Basal blood level of thyrotropic hormone in diabetes mellitus patients].
abstract: The basal blood level of the thyrotropic hormone (TTH) was radioimmunologically determined in 160 patients with diabetes mellitus. A significant increase of its average level was established versus that in the control group of healthy subjects. The changes found showed no dependence on sex, age, duration and type of disease, light deviations from the standard body weight and the differences in drug treatment. A light correlation was established between the thyrotropinemia and glycemia as well as an insignificant dynamics of the hormonal blood level after the compensation of the diabetes. The higher TTH level established in the patients without retinopathy requires further studies on the significance of that fact.
