T 3 is decreased with nonthyroidal chronic diseases and influenced by the state of nutrition. It is not helpful for evaluation of hypothyroidism. It may be normal with thyrotoxicosis (thyroxine thyrotoxicosis). 4
Increased T 3 often occurs in hyperthyroidism, but in approximately 5% of cases only T 3 is elevated, “T 3 toxicosis.” Do not confuse T 3 with T 3 uptake; these are two different tests. The latter is done very commonly as part of the usual thyroid profile. Less than 1% of T 3 is unbound.
