AimsWe investigated whether thyroid function could be associated with obesity phenotypes amongst euthyroid individuals.Materials and methodsA cross-sectional analysis was conducted among healthy, euthyroid subjects. The study participants were chosen from the Tehran Thyroid Study (TTS). We analyzed 2988 euthyroid adults and classified them into four obesity phenotype groups: metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW), metabolically healthy obese (MHO), metabolically unhealthy normal weight (MUNW), and metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO). The statistical differences between thyroid hormones between various obesity phenotypes according to age and sex was compared using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).ResultsIt was found that MHNW participants had higher levels of FT4 when compared with metabolically healthy or unhealthy obese subjects (P< 0.001), even after adjustment for the confounding variables. No difference was observed in the levels of TSH (P= 0.260) among obesity phenotypes. In the subgroup analysis according to the age, a significant difference was observed in the level of FT4 only in subjects with age < 55 years (P= 0.001). However, analyzing men and women separately did not show a significant difference in the FT4 level among obesity phenotypes (P> 0.05).Conclusion“Metabolically abnormality” was independently related to low normal FT4 levels in overweight/obese euthyroid individuals. There is a need for further research to understand how low FT4 levels are linked to metabolically unhealthy states in euthyroid individuals.
