description Hormonal and immunological characteristics of have been studied in individuals with initial autoimmune thyroiditis who have first- and second-degree relatives with autoimmune diseases. The age of the studied group of patients was 31±14 years, 60 women and 7 men. All the patients were examined by clinical, laboratory and instrumental methods in accordance with examination standards for autoimmune thyroiditis and type 1 diabetes mellitus. In addition, A, M, and G serum immunoglobulins and autoantibodies to insulin, pancreatic cells were determined. In patients with autoimmune thyroiditis, regardless of the presence / absence of a family history of autoimmune diseases, we have found an increase (p < 0.01) in total cholesterol content (by 63.6-65.9%), basal hyperglycemia (by 20-25%), higher thyroid-stimulating hormone (by 79-104%) in presence with decreased thyroglobulin levels (by 8-17.8%; p < 0.01), in comparison with the control group. There was a significant increase in postprandial glucose and glycated hemoglobin (p < 0.01) in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and type 1 diabetes, in cases of familial autoimmune diseases, as compared to the controls. In all patients of the study group, there was a significant (p < 0.001) increase in autoantibodies to thyroperoxidase, compared with controls, and within the subgroup with co-existence of type 1 diabetes and autoimmune diseases in the family (p < 0.005).At the same time, the patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and type 1 diabetes mellitus with aggravated family history for autoimmune diseases have shown a significant increase of insulin autoantibodies, and to own pancreatic components (p < 0.005) when comparing with subgroup of patients without type 1 diabetes and, compared with a subgroup of patients without family history of type 1 diabetes mellitus and other autoimmune disorders.Increased IgA and IgG in blood serum (p < 0.05-0.001) can be traced, regardless of the presence of type 1 diabetes and familial autoimmune anamnesis. Increase of humoral immunity indices was significant in the persons with autoimmune thyroiditis accomplished by the type 1 diabetes in families with autoimmune diseases, in comparison with patients without type 1 diabetes (p < 0.005) and without burdened family history (p < 0.01). Hence, we have registered more pronounced changes in thyroid hormones, the contents of autoantibodies to a number of surface and internal structures of endocrine organs, as well as serum immunoglobulins in the persons with autoimmune thyroiditis accomplished by type 1 diabetes in hypothyreosis with first- and second-degree relatives with autoimmune diseases, in comparison with patients without burdened family history. Therefore, the diagnosis of at least one autoimmune disorder in a family member increases the alertness of patients and doctors, thus contributing to the early detection of autoimmune diseases.
