The aetiology and pathogenesis of hyperthyroidism BASIL
Studies of thyroid stimulating activity of serum from thyrotoxic patients has revealed an abnormal prolonged response in the mouse present in 40-60% of patients depending on the criteria used. This agent designated long acting thyroid stimulator (LATS) is a 7S globulin. Transplacental passage of LATS accounts for neonatal thyrotoxicosis-a self-limited disease. LATS is also more readily detected...

The aim was to quantify the causes of hyperthyroidism with particular emphasis on the prevalence of viral thyroiditis and "silent" thyroiditis. The proportional morbidity of Graves' disease (approximately 70%) was similar in the t...
متن کاملHyperthyroidism--pathogenesis and diagnosis.
In the articles below two contributors discuss recent progress in pathogenesis, management, and diagnosis of some thyroid disorders. Dr. Reginald Hall summarizes the evidence that long-acting thyroid stimulator is an antibody, speculating that after reacting with a thyroid chalone it may trigger off Graves's disease. Dr. R. N. Smith discusses management, and emphasizes that recent progress has ...

The present concept for the etiology of thyroid disease permits the definition of three separate entities occuring with hyperthyroidism: Graves' Disease, Toxic Nodular Goitre, Autonomous Adenoma. Physiopathological properties of these entities lead to a rational therapeutic strategy for each one of them.
