Abstract
Purpose: To determine the incidence of geriatric syndromes (GS) in community dwelling older adults with subclinical
hypothyroidism.
Methods: This is an analysis from the Mexican Health and Aging Study, of a subsample of 2089 subjects with TSH determination. From this last subsample, we included 1628 individuals with TSH levels in the subclinical range (4.5–10 µU/ml).
Results: The multivariate analysis showed that when comparing data obtained from the 2012 wave with the 2015 wave
results, there was a signifcant incidence of some GS such as falls (OR 1.79, CI 1.16–2.77, p=0.0116), fatigue (OR 2.17, CI
1.40–3.38, p=0.0348) and depression (OR 1.70, CI 1.06–2.71, p=0.0246) among the subclinical hypothyroidism group.
Conclusion: This study showed a greater incidence of GS in subjects 50 years and older with sub-clinical hypothyroidism,
when compared to those with normal thyroid function.
