Powdered black cumin seeds strongly improves serum lipids, atherogenic index of plasma and modulates anthropometric features in patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
Abstract
Background: Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is associated with serious alterations in serum lipids and glucose homeostasis.
The aims of the current study were to evaluate the effect of powdered Nigella sativa on serum lipids, glucose
homeostasis and anthropometric variables in patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Methods: Forty patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, aged between 22 and 50 years old, partic...

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor Interacting with Th17 Cells May Be Involved in the Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Damage in Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis
Purpose. To explore the possible role of MIF and Th17 cells in the thyroid-specific autoimmune damage of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT). Material and Methods. We enrolled 40 HT patients and 30 healthy controls and divided HT patients into euthyroid subset ( = 22) and subclinical or overt hypothyroidism subset ( = 18). The percentages of Th17 cells and expressions of MIF, interleukin 17A (IL-17A) mRNA in PBMCs, as well as serum ...

Low vitamin D status is associated with hypothyroid Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The association of low vitamin D status with autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), which includes Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) and Graves’ disease (GD), is controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between vitamin D insufficiency and AITD, HT, and GD. DESIGN: Our cross-sectional study included patients who visited a tertiary hospital for thyroid evaluation or follow-up. A total of 776 patients in whom serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], thyroid function, ...

Is vitamin D related to pathogenesis and treatment of Hashimoto's thyroiditis?
Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate vitamin D status by measuring serum 25(OH)D levels in euthyroid patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) who lived and worked on the sunny island of Crete, Greece, and to evaluate whether vitamin D3 supplementation is benecial for the management of HT patients with vitamin D deciency. Subjects and Methods:We studied 218 HT patients, euthyroid Caucasian Cretan Greek citizens: 180 females and 38 males. Among these patients, 186 (85.3%) had vitamin ...

Improving iodine nutritional status and increasing prevalence of autoimmune thyroiditis in children
ABSTRACT
Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the link between excess iodine intake as evidenced by increased urinary iodine excretion (UIE) and autoimmune thyroiditis in children and to assess the correlation between UIE and thyroid microsomal antibody (thyroid peroxidase [TPO]) titers in children. Materials and Methods: All children with goiter between age group 6 and 12 years, were subjected to blood tests for free thyroxine, thyroid stimulating hormone, and TPO ...

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis: From Genes to the Disease
Abstract: Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is the most prevalent autoimmune thyroid disorder. Intrathyroidal lymphocytic infiltration is followed by a gradual destruction of the thyroid gland which may lead to subclinical or overt hypothyroidism. Biochemical markers of the disease are thyroid peroxidase and/or thyroglobulin autoantibodies in the serum which are present with a higher prevalence in females than in males and increase with age. Although exact mechanisms of aetiology and pathogenesis of the disorder are not completely ...

Evaluation of Xerostomia and salivary flow rate in Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis
Abstract
Background: One of the most common causes of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto´s Thyroiditis (HT). Early detection
of dry mouth is critical in preserving and promoting systemic and oral health. In this study we have assessed, for the first time, salivary function and xerostomia in HT patients who have not been involved with Sjögren´s syndrome.
Material and Methods: HT was diagnosed in 40 patients based on clinical findings and positive anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies (anti-TPO). Controls, matched ...

Association between Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and cholelithiasis: a retrospective cohort study in Taiwan
Abstract
Objective To investigate the relation of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) to cholelithiasis and cholecystectomy in a
retrospective population-based study. Setting Cohort study. Participants We identified 1268 patients aged ≥20 years
with HT between 2000 and 2010 as the study cohort.
Primary and secondary outcome measures Patients without HT were randomly selected from a database and propensity-matched with the study cohort at a 1:4 ratio according to age, sex, ...
