All enrolled patients completed the clinical evaluation, which included information about family history of autoimmune disease, growth parameters and tanner stage, as well as the following assessments: vitamin D profile (parathyroid hormone and 25-OH vitamin D levels), TSH, FT4 and total T3, thyroglobulin antibodies, thyroperoxidase antibodies, random blood sugar, Hb\n                      <jats:sub>A1C<\/jats:sub>\n                      , IGF\n                      <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n                      , IGF\n                      <jats:sub>B<\/jats:sub>\n                      p.\n                      <jats:sub>3<\/jats:sub>\n                      , LH, and FSH.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 42 patients, 22 with JIA and 20 with SLE, were included in the study. The mean participant age was 12.2 \u00b1 5.3 years with a mean disease duration of 3.2 \u00b1 3.4 years. Female gender was predominant (17 SLE, 13 JIA) in the patient population. Fifteen patients (35.7%) presented with a family history of autoimmune disease. The most frequently detected endocrinopathies were vitamin D insufficiency (35%) and thyroid disease (31%). Eight JIA patients and 7 SLE patients exhibited low vitamin D levels; 10 patients presented with hyperpara-thyroidism. Thyroid dysfunction was observed in 13 patients (8 SLE, 5 JIA), and 2 patients were found to be euthyroid (normal TSH, FT4) with positive thyroid autoantibodies. Furthermore, 7 patients presented with subclinical hypothyroidism (high TSH, normal FT4), and 4 patients presented with overt hypothyroidism (high TSH, low FT4). Seven patients (4 SLE and 3 JIA) presented with short stature due to growth hormone insufficiency (low IGF\n                      <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n                      , IGF\n                      <jats:sub>BP-3<\/jats:sub>\n                      ).

Abnormal thyroid function occurs frequently and at a similar rate in children diagnosed with SLE and JIA. Thus, screening for endocrinopathies, namely thyroid disease, during the assessment of childhood SLE and JIA is worth consideration.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n
