Thyroid Feedback Quantile-based Index

Reference range–0.74 – +0.74
Test ofSensitivity of TSH-producing pituitary cells to thyroid hormones; also a marker for the set point of thyroid homeostasis

The Thyroid Feedback Quantile-based Index (TFQI) is a calculated parameter for thyrotopic pituitary function. It was defined to be more robust to distorted data than Jostel's TSH index (JTI) and the thyrotroph thyroid hormone sensitivity index (TTSI).

How to determine the TFQI

The TFQI can be calculated with

from quantiles of FT4 and TSH concentration (as determined based on cumulative distribution functions).[1] Per definition the TFQI has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 0.37 in a reference population.[1] This explains the reference range of –0.74 to + 0.74.

Clinical significance

Higher values of TFQI are associated with obesity, metabolic syndrome, impaired renal function, diabetes, and diabetes-related mortality.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] TFQI results are also elevated in takotsubo syndrome,[8] potentially reflecting type 2 allostatic load in the situation of psychosocial stress. Reductions have been observed in subjects with schizophrenia after initiation of therapy with oxcarbazepine, potentially reflecting declining allostatic load[9].

Despite positive association to metabolic syndrome and type 2 allostatic load a large population-based study failed to identify an assocaiton to risks of dyslipidemia and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)[10].
