This study shows the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction, especially hypothyroidism, among patients with diabetes. It also highlights the importance of screening for thyroid function in patients who have had diabetes for more than five years. Early identification and management of thyroid dysfunction may improve glycemic control and reduce the risk of long-term complications.
