متن کاملIs it possible to predict hypothyroidism after thyroid lobectomy through thyrotropin, thyroglobulin, anti-thyroglobulin, and anti-microsomal antibody?
PURPOSE We investigated the incidence and risk factors of hypothyroidism after thyroid lobectomy, and evaluated the possibility to predict hypothyroidism preoperatively with serologic markers, such as thyrotropin (TSH), thyroglobulin (TG), anti-thyroglobulin (ATA), and anti-microsomal antibody (AMA). METHODS We enrolled 123 consecutive patients who underwent thyroid lobectomy due to benign co...
متن کاملCytophilic anti-thyroglobulin antibody and antibody-dependent macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity in Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
Antibody-dependent macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity was studied to determine the significance of cytophilic anti-thyroglobulin antibody (ATgA) present in the sera of patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Effector cells were normal human monocytes or guinea-pig peritoneal exudate cells, and target cells were human thyroglobulin(Tg)-coated chicken erythrocytes. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by morp...
