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, ...

Altered expression of CTLA-4, CD28, VDR, and CD45 mRNA in T cells of patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis — a pilot study
Abstract
Introduction: CD28/T-cell receptor (TCR)/cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) complex controls T-cell tolerance and autoimmunity in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT). In addition, CD45 protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) and vitamin D receptor (VDR) cooperatively interact with the TCR complex to affect autoimmune processes central to the pathogenesis of HT. Nevertheless, their role in HT aetiology has been less well established. In this study, we ...

25-Hydroxyvitamin D serum level in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, but not Graves’ disease is relatively deficient
Abstract. Vitamin D is a modulator of both the innate and adaptive immune system. As vitamin D deficiency was a risk factor for some autoimmune diseases, we aimed to evaluate the serum vitamin D levels in autoimmune thyroid diseases(AITD) including Graves’ disease (GD) and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) and investigated the association between serumvitamin D levels and AITD. 175 AITD patients including 51 GD, 61 euthyroid HT (mild HT), 63 euthyroid HT patientswith hypothyro...
