THE THYROID STATUS AMONG PATIENTS OF NIMRA HOSPITALS IN JAMSHORO, SINDH, PAKISTAN

Abstract

The tiny gland described as the thyroid which is located around the trachea on the side line of throat that depicts a butterfly appearance with smaller center and two wide wings which wrap over the side of your throat. When the body has too much thyroid hormone, it develops an overactive thyroid, sometimes referred to as hyperthyroidism, which is a rather common hormonal disorder. Methods: To collect demographic information a standard questionnaire was designed to gather data concerning on different variables which includes; name, gender, age, smoking and drinking practices, income, water source, drinking duration, and personal or family history of thyroid issues. Results: According to research studies at Nimra Hospital, in Jamshoro, roughly 45% of people had thyroid
deficiencies and 60% had excess thyroid hormones, which can speed up the body's metabolism and cause a variety of symptoms. The thyroid hormones control numerous crucial bodily processes. Thyroid-related issues disrupt a variety of physiological processes of human body notably heart rate, mood, energy level, metabolism, bone health, and reproductive health. Because endocrine illnesses primarily present as hormonal imbalances, they could be difficult to spot at an autopsy, organomegaly or nodules are examples of anatomical observations that may point to an aberration that requires more investigation through microscopic analysis or
laboratory testing. Conclusion: Thyroid problems can impact many different organ systems and appear in a variety of ways. An extensive overview of thyroid disorders, thyroid hormones, possible thyroid--related fatalities, and unintentional autopsy results are given in this article.
