Thyroid function tests in the elderly in the community.

H M Hodkinson, M J Denham.   

Abstract

A study of the well elderly living at home has demonstrated that the ranges for serum thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3) uptake and free-thyroxine index (FTI) are much narrower than those for the sick elderly in-patient. The prevalence of thyroid disease appears similar in both types of elderly population.
