 The results of this study suggest that autoimmune thyroid disease, AITD, is relatively common in diabetic children in South Punjab. In particular, it was found that 21.1% of the participants had positive antibodies for either thyroid peroxidase antibody, TPOib, or thiroglobulin antibody, TGib. Additionally, six patients, 3.7%, had evidence of subclinical hypothyroidism, eight patients, 4.9%, had overt hypothyroidism, and one patient, 0.62%, had hypothyroidism. These findings indicate that all diabetic children should be screened for AITD, as well as those who have positive antibodies for either TPOib or TGib.
