This article discusses the role of vitamin D in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT). The authors found that vitamin D levels were low in patients with AIT. In the article, the authors showed an inverse correlation between thyroid-stimulating hormone, antibodies to thyroperoxidase and thyroglobulin and vitamin D content, which indicates that vitamin D deficiency is also one of the pathogenetic links in the course of AIT.
