Glycosaminoglycan Antibodies in Endocrine Ophthalmopathy

Hormone and Metabolic Research, 1993
An increased accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in the orbita has been reported in endocrine ophthalmopathy (EO). In this study we investigated whether antibodies directed against GAG are present in the sera of 52 EO patients and 47 healthy controls.

The presentation and management of endocrine ophthalmopathy

Clinics in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1978
The ophthalmopathy of Graves' disease is a disorder of unknown aetiology and variable clinical presentation. It may precede, accompany, or follow hyperthyroidism, or it may be seen in the absence of recognizable thyroid disease (Munro et aI, 1973; Solomon et aI, 1977; Volpe, 1977). Mild, noninfiltrative ophthalmopathy may require no therapy at all, but

Diagnosis and Management of Endocrine Ophthalmopathy

Medical Clinics of North America, 1985
Most patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism have mild or inapparent ophthalmopathy. For the unusual patient with severe ophthalmopathy, a generally successful, coordinated, combined interdisciplinary medical and surgical management program is outlined.

The influence of surgery on endocrine ophthalmopathy

World Journal of Surgery, 1990
AbstractSince the pathogenesis of endocrine ophthalmopathy is unclear, there has been little agreement on the treatment of the disease. The influence of thyroid surgery on endocrine ophthalmopathy is controversial. To evaluate the effect of thyroid surgery on the course of the disease, we developed a special ophthalmopathy index.

Autoimmune Endocrine Ophthalmopathy and Retrobulbar Antigens

Hormone and Metabolic Research, 1995
Endocrine Ophthalmopathy (EO) is based on autoimmune processes that lead to lymphocyte infiltration of the retrobulbar space. In this study, antigenic character of retrobulbar adipose, connective and muscle tissue as well as of cultured fibroblasts and myoblasts were examined.

Predicting outcome of treatment with radiotherapy in endocrine ophthalmopathy

Medicina (Lithuania), 2007
Objective. To evaluate if the concentration of C-reactive protein and the level of antibodies to thyrotropin receptors might predict the outcome of retrobulbar irradiation in patients with endocrine ophthalmopathy. Material and methods.

Plasma glycosaminoglycans in endocrine ophthalmopathy

Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 1994
With evidence on the important role of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in the pathogenesis of endocrine ophthalmopathy (EO) having accumulated, the present study focused on the biochemical assessment of plasma GAG content in 37 EO patients as compared to 20 controls.
