Low total and free triiodothyronine levels are associated with insulin resistance in non-diabetic individuals

Abstract This study examined associations of thyroid hormone levels and insulin resistance (IR) in non-diabetic individuals. Using a cross-sectional design, 2007–2008 data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were analyzed. NHANES participants ≥20 years of age with comp...
