Evaluation and treatment of thyroid disease is a common feature of primary care medicine. Nevertheless, the dose of thyroid hormone used to treat hypothyroidism is frequently not titrated to normalize the TSH, engendering the risks of under- or overtreatment. Other hypothyroid patients remain symptomatic even with normalized TSH on levothyroxine alone.

The Lancet, 2012
Subclinical thyroid diseases--subclinical hyperthyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism--are common clinical entities that encompass mild degrees of thyroid dysfunction. The clinical significance of mild thyroid overactivity and underactivity is uncertain, which has led to controversy over the appropriateness of diagnostic testing and possible ...

Medical Journal of Australia, 1993
Hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism are common disorders in the elderly and may remain unrecognised until a patient presents with an apparently unrelated problem. The finding of an elevated level of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) with a normal serum thyroxine (T4) level represents "subclinical hypothyroidism", which does not necessarily require ...

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2012
Autoimmune thyroid disorders (AITDs) are the most common organ-specific autoimmune disorders. The genetics as well as clinical and laboratory manifestations of AITDs are reviewed.We discuss the association between specific rheumatologic disorders and AITDs and manifestations of AITDs that mimic rheumatologic disorders.

Hospital Practice, 1984
Autoimmune mechanisms are responsible for only about 10% of all clinically apparent thyroid disorders. However, they play a major role in two of the three serious entities: Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The complex questions that still persist with regard to the etiology and character of the autoimmune processes—and their clinical ...

A considerable proportion of the thyroid diseases is due to aberrant immune reactions toward thyroid antigens. Autoreactivity is considered to be a normal process controlled by several suppressor mechanisms. Malfunction of these suppressor mechanisms may result in autoimmune disease.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1986
The concept of thyroid autoimmune disease now includes the following clinical entities: 1 degree thyrotoxicosis and goitrous thyroiditis (Hashimoto) with their variants, and 1 degree myxedema (atrophic thyroiditis); some cases of sporadic nontoxic goiters; most cases of neonatal hyperthyroidism; and a proportion of congenital athyreotic cretinism ...

Interesting clinical and basic studies have been published in the field of autoimmune thyroiditis (represented by Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis) since January 2005. The review is organized into four main areas: genetics, environment, adaptive immune system, and innate immune system.The quest continues for the identification of ...

Graves’ disease was first described by Caleb H. Parry in 1825. The first case among his 6 patients seen in 1786 had experienced palpitation, neck swelling and protrusion of eyes after delivery(1). Thus the first patients with Graves’ (Parry’s) disease described in the medical literature was of postpartum onset. In 1840, Karl A.
