If Graves’ disease is suspected, testing for TSH receptor antibodies (TRAb) should be performed. The American Thyroid Association and the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force have advocated screening asymptomatic adults with serum TSH at age 35 years and every 5 years thereafter, but the cost-effectiveness of this is still controversial.

Up to 90% of patients with Graves' disease have antibodies directed to the "microsomal antigen" in the thyroid, known now to be thyroid peroxidase [21-25]. A lower proportion, approximately 50%, have antibodies directed against thyroglobulin [25].

In Graves’ disease, the major autoantigen (TSHR-Ab) is to the receptor for the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which causes overproduction of thyroid hormones, resulting in symptoms such as irritability, rapid heartbeat, weight loss, poor tolerance of heat and bulging eyes (Graves…

A decrease in serum TSH concentration is the earliest measure of thyroid overactivity.(subclinical thyrotoxicosis ) followed by an increase in the serum thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine(T3) concentration( overt thyrotoxicosis). The most common cause of thyrotoxicosis is Graves disease followed by multi nodular goitre.

METHODS: The prevalence of autoimmune thyroiditis was estimated in 310 Greek breast cancer patients, in 100 women with benign breast disease and in 190 women without any breast disease, by submitting them to clinical examination, ultrasound thyroid evaluation, serum thyroid antibody determination and fine needle aspiration (FNA) of the thyroid ...

Although TBII methods based on recombinant human TSH receptor are now available and may have a higher diagnostic sensitivity for Graves’ disease, they do not appear to offer improved specificity or sensitivity for predicting response to anti-thyroid drug (ATD) therapy (297,299).

Thyroid disease has been considered one of the most common autoimmune diseases since its two major clinical diseases, hypothyroidism (often caused by Hashimoto’s disease) and hyperthyroidism (mainly by Grave’s disease) are caused by auto antibodies.1 Thyroid disease is mainly associated with decreased quality of life, Grave’s ophthalmopathy and dermopathy, osteoporosis, cardiovascular ...
