The environment and autoimmune thyroid diseases.

European journal of endocrinology - 1 May 2004

Prummel Mark F, Strieder Thea, Wiersinga Wilmar M

Abstract excerpt

Genetic factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) and it has been calculated that 80% of the susceptibility to develop Graves' disease is attributable to genes. The concordance rate for AITD among monozygotic twins is, however, well below 1 and environmental factors thus must play an important role. We have attempted to carry out a comprehensive review of all the...
