New methods for diagnosis of human dormancy syndrome are provided. Human dormancy syndrome is characterized by elevated serum ratio of rT3/fT3 compared to a population of normal subjects from which subjects suffering from fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, obesity, dementias including Alzheimer's Disease and related dormancy conditions are excluded, and the presence of one or more findings related to reduced activity including torpor, chronic fatigue, insulin resistance, dementias, obesity and the like. Treatment of human dormancy syndrome is directed toward increasing fT3 levels or decreasing rT3 levels, or both, using pharmaceutical and/or behavioral methods. Other conditions that are associated with HDS can also be treated using T3 therapy, with or without specific psychological, behavioral or pharmaceutical therapies.
提供了诊断人类休眠综合征的新方法。人体休眠综合征的特征是,与正常人相比,血清中 rT3/fT3 的比率升高,而正常人中不包括纤维肌痛、慢性疲劳、肥胖、痴呆(包括阿尔茨海默病)和相关休眠病症的患者,并且存在一种或多种与活动减少有关的发现,包括倦怠、慢性疲劳、胰岛素抵抗、痴呆、肥胖等。人类休眠综合征的治疗方法是利用药物和/或行为方法提高 fT3 水平或降低 rT3 水平,或两者兼而有之。与人类休眠综合征相关的其他病症也可以使用 T3 疗法进行治疗,无论是否采用特定的心理、行为或药物疗法。
