Results are presented on two patients with complete and two with partial thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) deficiency. All four subjects had lowered serum thyroxine but were clinically euthyroid. While thyroid hormone uptake tests or TBG assay were effective in the recognition of such individuals, indices based on these tests were misleading in assessing their thyroid status. Results within the reference range were obtained with the Immophase Free Thyroxine assay.
报告了两例完全性和两例部分性甲状腺素结合球蛋白（TBG）缺乏患者的结果。所有四名受试者血清甲状腺素水平均降低，但临床甲状腺功能正常。虽然甲状腺激素摄取试验或TBG测定对识别此类个体有效，但基于这些试验的指标在评估其甲状腺状态时会产生误导。使用免疫相游离甲状腺素测定法获得了参考范围内的结果。
