Serum lipids are novel predictors for thyroid autoimmunity in the general population with normal TSH levels from a cross-sectional study.

We have shown the associations of HDL-C and LDL-C with TgAb positivity in the general population with normal TSH levels in a gender-dependent manner. This study highlights that serum lipids may be new predictors of thyroid autoimmunity even when TSH is within the reference range.
