Resumen
The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of dyslipidemia and its relationship with nutritional status in patients aged 30 to 65 years with Hypothyroidism at the Guayllabamba Health Center in 2016. The study is a non-experimental, cross-sectional study, with a study population of 100 patients from 30 to 65 years of age with a diagnosis of Hypothyroidism who were treated in the outpatient service of General Medicine of the Guayllabamba Health Center during 2016. Each patient underwent an analytical study of hormonal profile that included Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroxine (T4), determination of lipid profile (total cholesterol, triglycerides, cLDL, HDL-C) and anthropometric data collection (weight, height, body mass index), considered valid for the study of patients TSH and T4 values registered in your clinical record, establishing an initial and not subsequent diagnosis. Of the population under study with Hypothyroidism it was found that there is a predominance of this pathology in female patients of advanced age and in terms of nutritional alterations, a 1: 3 ratio was obtained in terms of normal weight: obesity. When performing the correlation analysis between the variables of the lipid profile and the nutritional alterations in terms of the Body Mass Index, it was found that there is a statistically significant relationship (p <0.05) between the plasma values of total cholesterol and triglycerides, indicating this way the relationship of dyslipidemia and nutritional status in patients with thyroid dysfunction.
