Clinical application of cone beam CT in intensity-modulated radiotherapy for the moderate to severe thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy. [PDF]
J Appl Clin Med PhysAbstract Background Cone beam CT (CBCT) has been reported for intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of various cancers due to its real‐time imaging capabilities, but studies on its application in orbital diseases, particularly moderate to severe thyroid‐associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), remain limited.

Glymphatic System Dysfunction in Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy: A Multimodal MRI Study. [PDF]
CNS Neurosci TherTAO patients exhibit impaired glymphatic function, with reduced DTI‐ALPS indices and gBOLD‐CSF coupling, but unchanged choroid plexus volume. These alterations correlate with neuropsychological symptoms and sleep disturbances. Restoring glymphatic activity may offer a therapeutic approach to enhance patient outcomes.

Antagonistic Autoantibodies to Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Receptor Associate with Poor Physical Strength [PDF]
, 2020 Natural autoantibodies to the IGF1 receptor (IGF1R-aAb) have been described in relation to Graves' ophthalmopathy. Other physiological roles of natural IGF1R-aAb are not known. We hypothesized that IGF1R-aAb may be related to muscle development.

Antigen receptor variable region repertoires expressed by T cells infiltrating thyroid, retroorbital, and pretibial tissue in Graves' disease [PDF]
, 1996 To date, it has remained unclear whether T cells infiltrating thyroid, retroorbital, and pretibial tissue of patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy and pretibial dermopathy represent a primary immune response that is directed against certain antigenic ...

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1990 The volume of the levator superior rectus muscle complex was determined from computed tomography scans of 152 orbits from 76 patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy. Clinically observed lid retraction and lid lag did not correlate with the levator/superior rectus muscle volume and did not correlate with limitation of vertical eye movements or inferior ...
