Özet
Background: in hypothyroid patients, the risk for cardiovascular disease is higher and ultrasonography (US) demonstrates that the carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) is significantly increased. We hypothesized that L-thyroxine replacement therapy might be able to reverse the process associated with increase in CIMT in patients with primary hypothyroidism.
