Diabetes mellitus and thyroid diseases are quite frequently associated. This is true especially when they share the same cause: autoimmune etiology. The hormones involved in this disorders are: insulin, glucagon, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). All of these affect the carbohydrate metabolism, so that the coexistence of thyroid dysfunction and diabetes may render the glycemic control more difficult to be preserved.
糖尿病和甲状腺疾病常常同时出现。当它们有相同病因,即自身免疫病因时尤其如此。涉及这些病症的激素有:胰岛素、胰高血糖素、甲状腺素(T4)和三碘甲状腺原氨酸(T3)。所有这些激素都会影响碳水化合物代谢,因此甲状腺功能障碍与糖尿病并存可能会使血糖控制更加难以维持。
