RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the correlation between preeclampsia and thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy.Methods:107 early pregnant women with preeclampsia admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2017 to Jan. 2020 were all enrolled (observation group) . The observation group were in 6-34 gestational weeks, with an average parity of (1.67±0.35) times. In addition, 100 cases of normal pregnant women in the same period were selected as the control group. The control group were in 6-34 gestational weeks, with an average parity of (1.61±0.31) times. The two groups were compared at early, mid and late pregnancy in terms of thyroid function, and the correlation of preeclampsia and abnormal thyroid function was analyzed.Results:1. TSH levels in the observation group were (1.92±1.24) , (2.07±0.82) , and (2.30±1.23) mU/L in the first trimester, second trimester and third trimester, respectively, showing an upward trend. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.024) . FT4 levels of the observation group in the first trimester, second trimester and third trimester were (0.80±0.26) , (0.60±0.34) and (0.59±0.32) pmol/L, respectively, showing a decreased trend and the difference was statistically significant compared with those of the control group ( P=0.012) . 2. The incidence of hypothyroidism, TPOAb positive and reduced free tetraiodothyronine in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P=0.001, 0.023, 0.005) . There was no significant difference in the incidence of hyperthyroidism or subclinical hypothyroidism between the two groups ( P=0.169, 0.846) . 3. Correlation analysis showed that preeclampsia was related to hypothyroidism, normal thyroid function with TPOAb positive and reduced free tetraiodothyronine ( P=0.000, 0.000, 0.000) . Conclusions:There are changes in thyroid function in pregnant women with preeclampsia. Hypothyroidism, positive TPOAb and reduced free tetraiodothyronine are closely related to the onset of preeclampsia.
