Abstract

 

Introduction. Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) include a diverse set of clinical conditions. One of the caracteristics of AITD is the level of thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO Ab) being above normal .There is little information as to the possible influence of the environmental factors on the TPO Ab levels. Case report. A 57 old female with autoimmune thyroiditis on a substitutional therapy, showed TPO Ab values declined after replacing common European diet with a vegetarian diet. Conclusion. During vegetarian diet decline in TPO Ab level occurred.There is a need to investigate further the suitable diet for patients with AITD .

Sažetak

 

Uvod. Autoimuna tiroidna bolest (ATB) uključuje različita klinička stanja. Jedna od karakteristika ATB je povišen titar antitela na tiroid peroksidazu (TPO At).Malo je podataka o mogućem uticaju faktora sredine na nivo TPO At.Prikaz slučaja. Kod pedesetsedmogodišnje ženske osobe sa autoimunim tireoiditisom (AT), na substitucionalnoj terapiji, došlo je do pada titra TPO At nakon prelaska sa uobičajene evropske na vegetarijansku ishranu. Zaključak. Tokom vegetarijanske ishrane došlo je do pada titra TPO At. Potrebno je dalje istraživati odgovarajuću ishranu za pacijente sa ATB.
