  • Incidence of hyperthyroidism in Sweden
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Endocrinology. - 0804-4643 .- 1479-683X. ; 165:6, s. 899-905

    • Introduction: The incidence of hyperthyroidism has been reported in various countries to be 23-93/100000 inhabitants per year. This extended study has evaluated the incidence for similar to 40% of the Swedish population of 9 million inhabitants. Sweden is considered to be iodine sufficient country. Methods:All patients including children, who were newly diagnosed with overt hyperthyroidism in the years 2003-2005, were prospectively registered in a multicenter study. The inclusion criteria are as follows:clinical symptoms and/or signs of hyperthyroidism with plasma TSH concentration below 0.2 mIE/l and increased plasma levels of free/total triiodothyronine and/or free/total thyroxine. Patients with relapse of hyperthyroidism or thyroiditis were not included. The diagnosis of Graves' disease (GD), toxic multinodular goiter (TMNG) and solitary toxic adenoma (STA), smoking, initial treatment, occurrence of thyroid-associated eye symptoms/signs, and demographic data were registered. Results:A total of 2916 patients were diagnosed with de novo hyperthyroidism showing the total incidence of 27.6/100 000 inhabitants per year. The incidence of GD was 21.0/100 000 and toxic nodular goiter (TNG=STA+TMNG) occurred in 692 patients, corresponding to an annual incidence of 6.5/100 000. The incidence was higher in women compared with men (4.2:1). Seventy-five percent of the patients were diagnosed with GD, in whom thyroid-associated eye symptoms/signs occurred during diagnosis in every fifth patient. Geographical differences were observed. Conclusion:The incidence of hyperthyroidism in Sweden is in a lower range compared with international reports. Seventy-five percent of patients with hyperthyroidism had GD and 20% of them had thyroid-associated eye symptoms/signs during diagnosis. The observed geographical differences require further studies.

  • Impaired Quality of Life After Radioiodine Therapy Compared to Antithyroid Drugs or Surgical Treatment for Graves’ Hyperthyroidism : A Long-Term Follow-Up with the Thyroid-Related Patient-Reported Outcome Questionnaire and 36-Item Short Form Health Status Survey
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Thyroid. - : Mary Ann Liebert. - 1050-7256 .- 1557-9077. ; 29:3, s. 322-331
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Hyperthyroidism is known to have a significant impact on the quality of life (QoL) at least in the short term. The purpose of the present study was to assess QoL in patients at 6-10 years after treatment for Graves' disease (GD) with radioiodine (RAI) to those treated with thyroidectomy or antithyroid drugs (ATD) as assessed with both a thyroid-specific (ThyPRO) and general (SF-36) QoL surveys.METHODS: We evaluated 1186 GD patients in a sub-cohort from an incidence study 2003-2005 which had been treated according to routine clinical practice at seven participating centers. Patients were included if they had returned the ThyPRO (n=975) and/or the SF-36 questionnaire (n=964) and informed consent at follow-up. Scores from ThyPRO were compared with scores from a general population sample (n=712), using multiple linear regression adjusting for age and gender as well as multiple testing. Treatment related QoL outcome for ATD, RAI and surgery were compared including adjustment for the number of treatments received, sex, age and co-morbidity.RESULTS: Regardless of treatment modality, patients with GD had worse thyroid-related QoL 6-10 years after diagnosis compared with the general population. Patients treated with RAI had worse thyroid-related and general QoL than patients treated with ATD or thyroidectomy on the majority of QoL-scales. Sensitivity analyses supported the relative negative comparative effects of RAI treatment on QoL in patients with hyperthyroidism.CONCLUSIONS: Graves' disease is associated with a lower QoL many years after treatment compared to the general population. In a previous, small RCT we did not show any difference in patient satisfaction years after ATD, RAI or surgery. We now report that in a large non-randomized cohort, patients who received RAI had adverse scores on ThyPRO and SF-36. These findings in a Swedish population are limited by comparison to normative data from Denmark, by older age and possibly a more prolonged course in those patients who received radioiodine, and a lack of information regarding thyroid status at the time of evaluation. The way RAI may adversely affect QoL is unknown but since the results may be important for future considerations regarding treatment options for GD they need to be substantiated in further studies.
