Major Role of Genes in the Etiology of Simple Goiter in Females: A Population-Based Twin Study<sup>1</sup>

1 Sept 1999

Abstract excerpt

The etiology of simple goiter, affecting up to 5% of a population in nonendemic areas, is incompletely understood. It is generally believed to be multifactorial in origin, but the relative contributions of genetic and environmental factors remain to be clarified. Therefore, we investigated a well defined population of Danish twins. We performed a historical cohort study of 5.479 same sex twin pairs born between...
