Effect of antidepressants on thyroid hormone level in adolescent depression with suicidal ideation

Journal Title: Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine - Year 2023, Vol 35, Issue 8

Abstract

ObjectiveTo compare the differences in thyroid hormone levels between adolescents with and without suicidal ideation, and to explore the association between thyroid hormone/suicidal ideation and the antidepressant treatment.MethodsA total of 100 patients were divided into non-suicidal ideation group and suicidal ideation group according to the SIOSS. The levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and free thyroxine (FT4) were compared between the two groups as well as their changes after 6 weeks of antidepressant treatment.ResultsThe levels of FT3, FT4 and T4 in the non-suicidal ideation group were higher than those in the suicidal ideation group. After 6 weeks of antidepressant treatment, the levels of FT3, FT4 and T4 in the suicide ideation group were higher than those before the treatment. The FT3 level in the male non-suicidal ideation group was higher than that in the suicidal ideation group. The levels of FT4 and T4 in the female non-suicidal ideation group were higher than those in the suicidal ideation group (all P<0.05)ConclusionThere are differences in thyroid hormone levels between adolescents with and without suicidal ideation (both with first-episode depression), and patients with suicidal ideation have significant changes after treatment with antidepressants.
