[Concentration of thyroglobulin, thyroxine and triiodothyronine in 3 different causes of death].
There are investigated the concentration of thyroglobulin, thyroxine and triiodthyronine in serum of heart blood from autopsies. The level of hormones depends from the reason of death. In comparison with values of healthy living individuals the postmortem concentrations of Tg, TT4 and TT3 are very different. Highered values of Tg were observed in cases of accident death, who died some days after the injuries. Thyroxin was higher in cases of hanging and TT3 in cases of hanging and unexpected natural death.
