Summary: This study investigated the relationship between thyroid diseases (TDs) and Helicobacter pylori infection. The results showed that long-lasting H. pylori infection was significantly associated with autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD), but not with non-autoimmune TD.

Summary: Hyperthyroidism is a condition characterized by excessive production of thyroid hormones, with Graves' disease being the most common cause. Disease models have been established, and novel treatments for Graves' disease and Graves' orbitopathy have been discovered. Potential therapeutic targets have also been identified in mouse models of Graves' orbitopathy. Human placental mesenchymal stem cells, fucoxanthin, and icariin may provide alternative therapies in addition to existing drugs.

Summary: The study found that the oral microbiota of male patients with treated and untreated hyperthyroidism differ, while the treatment method has no impact on the oral microbiota. By conducting extensive multicenter studies to identify the core oral microbiota and long-term monitoring of hyperthyroidism, important data for understanding the pathogenesis of the disease may be obtained.

Summary: Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease, is associated with an increased risk of hypothyroidism. Metabolomics was applied to analyze 21 metabolites in Hashimoto's thyroiditis, revealing the impact of phospholipids and different metabolic pathways in the pathogenesis of the disease. The study suggests the potential of SM, LPC, and PC as biomarkers for identifying patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis in different clinical stages.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the local symptoms of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and their prevalence. The common local symptoms in HT patients include neck pain, voice changes, throat discomfort, shortness of breath, dysphagia, and goiter-related symptoms. These symptoms should be identified in the clinic and included in the early diagnosis and management of HT.

Summary: Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Graves' disease (GD) have a modest genetic relationship, with genetic factors playing a more significant role in men's susceptibility to HT compared to women.

Summary: This study compared the fecal microbiota in patients with hyperthyroidism caused by Graves disease (GD) and varying severity of Graves orbitopathy (GO) with healthy controls. The results showed an increase in Actinobacteria and a decrease in Bacteroidetes in GD/GO patients compared to controls. A higher Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratio was observed in GD/GO. Longitudinal analysis revealed a correlation between the presence of certain bacteria (Clostridiales) at diagnosis and the persistence of thyroid antibodies even after antithyroid drug treatment.

Summary: Maternal Graves' disease can cause various thyroid dysfunctions in newborns, including hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. This study found that transient hyperthyroidism was the most common thyroid dysfunction in newborns with neonatal hyperthyroidism, but central hypothyroidism can also occur.

Summary: Radioactive iodine is commonly used for the treatment of thyroid diseases, with EANM and ICRP developing pre-therapeutic procedures and biokinetic models. Combining the EANM method and ICRP model provides more accurate patient-specific dosimetry estimates and absorbed dose estimates including most organs.

Summary: This study reveals that abnormal interactions between immune cells in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Graves' disease (GD) activate relevant immune pathways, exacerbating the immune response and potentially leading to the targeting of thyroid tissue and disease development.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the incidence, evaluation, and management of interferon and endocrine side effects. The study found a higher incidence of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism in patients treated with interferon, particularly in combination with ribavirin.

Summary: This study aims to selectively suppress anti-thyroglobulin IgG antibody-producing B lymphocytes in Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients using a chimeric protein molecule. The results show that this treatment method can reduce B-cell autoreactivity and promote apoptosis in targeted cells.

Summary: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is associated with autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD) in children, and the prevalence of infection in this study cohort was 19.44%. While there were no differences in thyroid hormone levels and antithyroid antibodies, the infection may lead to impairment in the thyroid hormonal balance.
