Study of gustatory sensitivity to phenylthiocarbamide in thyroid diseases

https://doi.org/10.14341/probl200955245-47

Abstract

The aim of the study was to reveal a relationship between gustatory sensitivity to phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) and thyroid disease. The distribution of PTC sensitivity was studied in 198 healthy individuals, 100 patients with autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT), 139 patients with nodular euthyroid goiter, and 100 patients operated on for thyroid cancer. There was a statistically significant decrease in the number of PTC-resistant male and females patients in the thyroid cancer group and an increase in the proportion of PTC-resistant male patients in the AIT and nodular euthyroid goiter groups.
