Abstract:
The aim of this study was to measure thyroid hormones
level (TSH, total T3, and total T4) among males and
females patients with goiter in west Darfur (Algeneina
City) their ages arranges between (10-65) years.
One hundred thirty (120) samples (30males (10-65years)
and 90females (10-65years)) were collected in the plain
containers;90 samples were collected from patients with
goiter
and
40
samples
from
apparently
healthy
individuals as control .the samples was transported In ice
bag by air plane from Algeneina to Khartoum and the
Hormones wear measured using ELISA technique in the
management of Laboratories.
In this study 64samples(82.5%) were found to have
normal thyroid hormones levels (Euthyroid), while six
samples(7.5%) were found to have hyperthyroidism, and
four samples(5.0%) were found to have hypothyroidism,
and four samples (5.0%) are high in TSH.
Also we found mean of T 4 in patients with goiter (7.5) was
significantly lower than mean in non goiter individuals
(9.4), mean of TSH in patients with goiter (1.8) was
significantly lower than mean in non goiter individuals
(2.3) and no significant difference between mean of T 3 in
patients with goiter (1.1) and mean in non goiter
individuals (1.2).
