    The content of antithyroid antibodies (AtAb) in the blood of patients with Hashimoto's goiter was studied over time, namely during the treatment with thyroid drugs and after surgical interventions of different scope. The patients' groups with diverse changes in the AtAb titers during the conservative treatment were revealed. The analogous types of the time-course of changes in antibodies to thyroglobulins (AbTg) were discovered after a surgical intervention irrespective of the operation scope whereas the persistence of antibodies to microsomal antigen (AbMa) after the operation depended on the mass of the remaining thyroid tissue. A correlation was found between the high titers of AbTg (rather than AbMa) and the elevated content of thyrotropic hormone in untreated patients with Hashimoto's goiter and after large-scope surgical interventions.

    Graves Disease II: Pathophysiology

    Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the production of thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulins (TSI) that activate TSH receptors, leading to excessive synthesis and release of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) and resulting in hyperthyroidism.Among all causes of hyperthyroidism, Graves’ disease is the most common and can happen at any age, though it is more frequent in women. It produces a hypermetabolic state with features such as weight loss, tachycardia, tremor, and heat...
