Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Hypothyroidism is a disease with symptoms of collective metabolic dysfunction and systemic dysfunction due to the lack of serum thyroid hormones caused by various reasons. GLUT4 is over-expressed in monocytes of patients with hyperthyroidism, there are also studies suggesting that there is a certain regulatory relationship of GLUT1 and GLUT4 with thyroid function. This study is aimed to explore the correlation of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and GLUT4 with prognosis of patients with hypothyroidism and cardiac insufficiency. METHODS: From July 2016 to October 2019, totally 116 patients with cardiac insufficiency complicated with subclinical hypothyroidism treated in our hospital were enrolled in the research group (RG), and 110 patients with cardiac insufficiency but normal thyroid function were enrolled in the control group (CG). Serum GLUT1, GLUT4, free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) were detected, and the correlation between them was analyzed. Then the predictive value and risk factors of GLUT1 and GLUT4 for poor prognosis of hypothyroidism complicated with cardiac insufficiency were analyzed. RESULTS: The expression levels of GLUT1, GLUT4, FT3 and FT4 in serum of patients in RG was notably lower than that in CG, and TSH expression was remarkably higher than those in CG (P<0.05). In RG, GLUT1 and GLUT4 expression levels were positively correlated with FT3 and FT4 expression (P<0.05), but negatively correlated with TSH expression (P<0.05). ROC of GLUT1 and GLUT4 in RG in predicting poor prognosis of patients was over 0.8. Low expression of GLUT1 and GLUT4 and diabetes were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with hypothyroidism complicated with cardiac insufficiency. CONCLUSION: GLUT1 and GLUT4 expression levels were significantly decreased in serum of patients with hypothyroidism complicated with cardiac insufficiency. Both of them have high predictive value for poor prognosis of patients, and are independent risk factors for poor prognosis of patients. AJCD
