Thyroid Feedback Quantile-based Index correlates strongly to renal function in euthyroid individuals by Sijue Yang, Shuiqing Lai, Zixiao Wang, Aihua Liu, Wei Wang, Haixia Guan

“…Similar results were obtained in SPINA-GD as in FT3/FT4.Conclusions In euthyroid individuals, decreased sensitivity to thyroid hormone is associated with reduced renal function. The composite PTFQIFT4 index correlates more strongly to renal function than TSH or T4 alone.KEY MESSAGESDecreased sensitivity to thyroid hormone is associated with reduced renal function in the euthyroid population.The recently developed composite index PTFQIFT4 seems to correlate more strongly to renal function than individual TSH or FT4 parameters.Innovative indices TT3RI and PTFQIFT3 based on the interaction between T3 and TSH may also reflect sensitivity to thyroid hormone.…”
