RADIOIODINEGENEStext>Purpose The cumulative incidence of hypothyroidism, in I-131-treated patients with hyperthyroidism caused by Graves' disease, has been gradually increasing each year. Meanwhile, the role of the genes that control radiation sensitivity (GCRS) involved in I-131 therapy is yet to ...
treatment is conservative, usually requiring only a beta-blocker, such as propranolol, during the hyperthyroid phase. Antithyroid drugs, surgical treatment, and radioiodine therapy are contraindicated. The transient phase of hypothyroidism may require thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Most patients...

Finally, HRQL assessments were conducted annually, so the temporal relationship between HRQL assessment and the peak of thyroid AE impact (either AE onset or during thyroidectomy or radioiodine therapy) is variable between patients. Conclusions This is the first study to evaluate the impact of ...

Based on thyroid function outcome at 12 months, patients were divided into two groups: 29 patients with overt hypothyroidism requiring levothyroxine replacement and 20 without overt hypothyroidism. We compared changes in post-radioiodine thyroid volume between the two groups. Results About 90% of ...
Patients were enrolled if they were aged over 18 years and were diagnosed with hypothyroidism (TSH>/= 10 IU/l). Pregnant ladies and patients who had undergone radioiodine therapy or were diagnosed with thyroid cancers were excluded.#A total of 46 (F=28) patients were enrolled into the study...
Radioactive iodine dose, PBI, RAIU, BMI, size of the thyroid gland, diagnosis, age and TPO-antibodies showed statistically significant differences in the development of hypothyroidism. Furthermore, thiamazole pretherapy was shown to be a predictor of hypothyroidism, as well as a high PBI value,...
Antithyroid drugs and radioiodine therapy are contraindicated. In the hypothyroid phase l-thyroxine should be instituted. The therapy of suppurative thyroiditis; bacterial or fungal consists of appropriate antibiotics and drainage of the abscess.Małgorzata GietkaCzernel...
