Of 319 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), nine had thyrotoxicosis, three had hypothyroidism, and two had thyroiditis. This prevalence seems greater than that of similar thyroid disorders seen in the general population. It is suggested that patients with autoimmune thyroid disorders may develop SLE or vice versa. This association requires confirmation by prospective study.
在319例系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者中,9例有甲状腺毒症,3例有甲状腺功能减退,2例有甲状腺炎。这种患病率似乎高于普通人群中类似甲状腺疾病的患病率。有人提出,自身免疫性甲状腺疾病患者可能会发展为SLE,反之亦然。这种关联需要前瞻性研究来证实。
