Varies depending on lab, but most common range is 115

So if result is below 115 it’s low/negative

If over 115 high/positive

Conclusions: Elevated TgAb levels are associated with symptom burden in HT patients, suggesting a role of thyroid autoimmunity in clinical manifestations of HT. Based on these results, we recommend screening for TgAb antibodies in HT patients with symptom burden. We also suggest that further work on understandings of symptoms appearance due to their autoimmune or hypothyroid causation is needed.

Conclusions

Our results confirm a high prevalence of autoimmune thyroiditis (20%) in patients with obesity. TgAb may be associated with hypothyroidism in the absence of TPOAb. TgAb measurement may turn helpful to unravel a proportion of subjects that may have or may develop primary hypothyroidism requiring specific substitutive treatment.

What do the results mean?

Your results may show one of the following:

Positive: thyroid antibodies, TPOAb and/or TgAb, were found. This may mean you have Hashimoto's disease. Most people with Hashimoto's disease have high levels of one or both of these types of antibodies.
