Insulin sensitivity modifies the relationship between thyroid function and lipid profile in euthyroid type 1 diabetic patients

Insulin sensitivity is associated with thyroid status and lipid profile in type 1 diabetic patients with normal thyroid function. The independent relation of eGDR with TSH and total and LDL cholesterol suggests that insulin sensitivity might influence thyroid function already at the normal stage. Whether the detection of increased TSH level within the normal range in insulin resistant type 1 diabetic patients has predictive value for development of dyslipidemia and increased cardiovascular risk needs to be assessed in further follow-up studies.
