Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The pathophysiology behind autoimmune Addison's disease (AAD) is poorly understood, and the relative influence of genetic and environmental factors remains unclear. In this study, we examined the heritability of AAD and explored disease-associated autoimmune comorbidity among Swedish twins. METHODS: A population-based longitudinal cohort of 112,100 Swedish twins was used to calculate the heritability of...
