Abstract

Aim: There are new publications on the relationship between metabolic syndrome and autoimmunity with vitamin d3 deficiency. We determine the prevalence of vitamin D3 deficiency in patients with euthyroid Hashimoto's thyroiditis and we compare serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, HOMA-IR, waist and hip circumference between euthyroid Hashimoto's thyroiditis and control group.
