Thyroid function and glucose tolerance in candida patients
The aim of the study was to investigate the functional state of the thyroid gland in patients with various forms of candidiasis in order to clarify the possible role of thyroid dysfunction in the pathogenesis and treatment of candidiasis. 116 patients with candidiasis were divided into 4 groups. Group 1 included 20 children (9 boys and 11 girls) aged from 2 to 15 years with chronic candidiasis of the skin and mucous membranes lasting from 1.5 to 14 years. The 2nd group consisted of 20 patients (5 men and 15 women) aged 16 to 45 years with the same disease lasting from 1 year to 30 years. Group 3 included 44 patients (14 men and 30 women) aged 16 to 55 with candidiasis of the respiratory system and gastrointestinal tract with duration from one year to 16 years. Group 4 included 32 women from 21 to 58 years of age with vaginal candidiasis lasting from one to 20 years. The control group consisted of 21 healthy individuals (8 men and 13 women) aged 25 to 40 years.
