Background: In severe illness of any cause, downregulation of the thyroid hormone system may occur. How this affects patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is largely unknown.Objective: To investigate changes in serum levels of the thyroid hormones during AMI and their association with cardiac function and outcome.Methods: Forty-seven consecutive euthyroid patients,with AMI were studied prospectively during the First 5 days and again 6 and 12 weeks later. Time from pain onset was used in all analyses.Results: The thyroid hormone system was rapidly down-regulated with maximal changes 24 to 36 hours after onset of symptoms. The mean level of the hormone total triioclothyronine (T-3) decreased 19% (P=.02), the inactive metabolite reverse T-3 (rT(3)) levels increased 22% (P=.01), and thyrotropin levels declined 51% (P
