Summary
Investigations of thyroid hormone actions upon electrolyte exchange in body and tissues and upon electrophysiological properties of the heart, described in literature, are reviewed. Possible interactions of thyroid hormone effects upon efficiency of oxydative phosphorylation, upon electrolyte exchange and upon the excitability of the heart are discussed.
