Effect of Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone Suppression on Muscle Function After Total Thyroidectomy in Patients With Thyroid Cancer
ContextThyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) suppression is recommended to reduce tumor recurrence following surgery for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). However, prolonged subclinical hyperthyroidism caused by levothyroxine treatment has deleterious effects on various organs.ObjectiveTo evaluate th...

We evaluated muscle mass and muscle function-related parameters and diagnosed sarcopenia using the threshold for Asian people.ResultsThe participants were 68.3 ± 7.2 years old and 36/134 (26.9%) were diagnosed with sarcopenia. They were allocated to high-TSH and low-TSH groups using a threshold concentration of 0.40 μU/mL, and grip strength was significantly lower in the low-TSH group. The data were further analyzed according to age and sex, and in the low-TSH group, male participants and those of <70 years were found to have significantly lower grip strength.ConclusionsLow-TSH concentrations is associated with low grip strength, and this is most pronounced in individuals of <70 years of age. Therefore, muscle function should be considered an adverse effect of TSH suppression in patients with DTC who undergo TSH suppression therapy, especially in men of <70 years.Jun Choul LeeByong-Sop SongYoung Mi KangYu-Ri KimYea Eun KangJu Hee LeeMinho ShongHyon-Seung YiHyon-Seung YiFrontiers Media S.A.articlethyroid-stimulating hormonesarcopeniathyroidectomythyroid cancermuscle function and physical activityDiseases of the endocrine glands.
