Summary
The purpose of this study is to correlate in an elderly population (≥ 65 years), the different levels of serum TSH, with cardiopulmonary capacity, quality of life, depressive symptoms and cognition. And assess whether the increased serum TSH to the upper half of the normal range, through the use of antithyroid drugs, is associated with improvements in these parameters.
