Abstract
The presence of what we believe is a unique variant of thyroxine-binding globulin in a high proportion of Australian Aborigines causes difficulty in the interpretation of thyroid function tests in such subjects. We present reference ranges for the common tests of thyroid function and a suitable combination of tests for the laboratory investigation of thyroid function in Aborigines. We suggest that the thyroid status of Aborigines previously diagnosed as hypothyroid should be reviewed.
摘要
我们认为，高比例的澳大利亚原住民体内存在一种独特的甲状腺素结合球蛋白变体，这给对此类人群的甲状腺功能测试结果解读带来了困难。我们给出了甲状腺功能常见测试的参考范围，以及用于原住民甲状腺功能实验室检查的合适测试组合。我们建议，应对先前被诊断为甲状腺功能减退的原住民的甲状腺状况进行复查。
