Subclinical Hypothyroidism can be associated with the onset of Chronic Heart Failure (CHF), because it can favour two frequent conditions that can evolve in CHF: coronary heart disease and hypertension; it can also alter both cardiovascular morphology and function leading to CHF progression in patients already affected by CHF through mechanisms still not completely understood. Aim of this paper is to review the possible pathogenetic mechanisms explaining the influence of subclinical hypothyroidism on the onset and progression of CHF.

Abstract

Subclinical Hypothyroidism can be associated with the onset of Chronic Heart Failure (CHF), because it can favour two frequent conditions that can evolve in CHF: coronary heart disease and hypertension; it can also alter both cardiovascular morphology and function leading to CHF progression in patients already affected by CHF through mechanisms still not completely understood. Aim of this paper is to review the possible pathogenetic mechanisms explaining the influence of subclinical hypothyroidism on the onset and progression of CHF.
