To study about Thyroid Disorders occurring in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients. To study about Thyroid Disorders occurring in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients. Thyroid hormones play a very important role regulating metabolism, development, protein synthesis and regulating other hormone function. The two main hormones produced by thyroid gland are Triiodothyronine(T3) and Thyroxine(T4). These hormones can also have significant impact on kidney diseases, so it is important to consider the physiological association of thyroid dysfunction in relation to chronic kidney disease. CKD has been known to affect the pituitary – thyroid axis with the peripheral metabolism of thyroid hormones. Patients who are appropriately treated for thyroid disease have less chances of developing renal dysfunction. All the patients who presented with Thyroid disorder and Chronic Kidney Diseases are independently some of most prominent medical conditions found in patients in India . Due to high prevalence of both it is important to consider the physiological association of thyroid dysfunction in relation to kidney diseases. The most common changes in CKD relating to thyroid gland are of how T3 level and subclinical hypothyroidism. Thereby the danger of thyroid diseases with its appropriate treatment in complication to treat CKD patients who receive appropriate treatment for thyroid diseases have decreased chances of developing or exacerbating renal dysfunction.
