Hypothyroidism, a disorder of decreased thyroid hormone secretion diagnosed by increased thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and low free triiodothyronine (FT3) and free thyroxine (FT4) levels, is classified as primary and secondary hypothyroidism, depending on the pathology. Raised TSH levels are associated with primary hypothyroidism, while decreased levels of TSH are seen in secondary hypothyroidism.

To alert physicians to the overlooked implication of endogenously produced ethanol both as a biomarker for poor control of diabetes and as a complicating factor, we report this case of an elderly male smoker alcohol-abstinent insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetic patient.

The intestinal microbiota plays an important role in maintaining human health, and its alteration is now associated with the development of various gastrointestinal (ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, etc.) and extraintestinal diseases, such as cancer, metabolic syndrome, neuropsychiatric diseases. In this context, it is not surprising that gut microbiota modification methods may constitute a therapy whose potential has not yet been fully investigated.
