Serum triiodothyronine levels were elevated in 6 patients with thyroid storm (769 plus or minus 181 ng/100 ml) but the values observed were not significantly different from those found in uncomplicated thyrotoxicosis (752 plus or minus 282 ng/100 ml). This observation suggests that the pathogenesis of thyroid storm resides in mechanisms other than a simple increase in serum triiodothyronine concentration.
6例甲状腺危象患者的血清三碘甲状腺原氨酸水平升高（769±181 ng/100 ml），但观察到的值与单纯甲状腺毒症患者（752±282 ng/100 ml）并无显著差异。这一观察结果表明，甲状腺危象的发病机制存在于血清三碘甲状腺原氨酸浓度单纯升高以外的其他机制中。
