OBJECTIVE
Few population-based studies have described the epidemiology of subtypes of hyperthyroidism.
DESIGN
A prospective population-based study, monitoring two well-defined Danish cohorts in Aalborg with moderate iodine deficiency (n=311 102) and Copenhagen with only mild iodine deficiency (n=227 632).
METHODS
A laboratory monitoring system identified subjects with thyroid function tests suggesting overt hyperthyroidism (low s-TSH combined with high s-thyroxine or s-triiodothyronine…

Race/Ethnicity and the prevalence of thyrotoxicosis in young Americans.

There are race/ethnicity differences in the prevalence of thyrotoxicosis in Americans aged 12-49 years, and future studies should address whether these differences are due to heritable factors, environmental exposures, or a combination of both.
High age predicts low referral of hyperthyroid patients to specialized hospital departments: evidence for referral bias.
- MedicineThyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association
- 2013
Hyperthyroid patients referred to a specialized hospital unit were younger (GD+MNTG) and had more severe biochemical hyperthyroidism (GD) compared to nonreferred patients, suggesting referral bias may influence hospital-based studies of hyperthyroxine patients, and may hamper external generalization of such studies.
Excess Mortality in Treated and Untreated Hyperthyroidism Is Related to Cumulative Periods of Low Serum TSH

Cumulative periods of decreased TSH increased mortality in both treated and untreated hyperthyroidism, implying that excess mortality may not be driven by lack of therapy, but rather inability to keep patients euthyroid.
