[The effect of viral hepatitis A on thyroid function].
Blood serum levels of hormones of the thyroid gland (triiodothyronine and thyroxin) were studied in adolescent girls with viral hepatitis A (VHA). Revealed in this patient population was a marked hormonal dysbalance dependent upon the period and severity of the disease course. It is caused by disturbances in metabolism of thyroid hormones in the liver as well as by shifts in hormonogenesis in iron. The above hormonal indicators may serve as additional criteria of gravity and activity of the pathological process in the liver under VHA.
