finding the relationship between ophthalmopathy disease with some clinical, subclinical, and TRAb concentrations in graves desease
Overview
Abstract:
Objectives: To find out the relationship between
ophthalmopathywith some clinical, subclinical features,
TRAb concentration in Graves desease. Subjects and
methods: It including 82 patients with Graves'
ophthalmopathy. They were admited at the National
Hospital of Endocrinology.Research method was used
a descriptive cross-sectional study. Results: Male
were 3.72 times more likely to develop moderate to
life-threatening ophthalmopathy disease than female.
There was a relationship between TRAb and FT4
concentrations with the clinical activity of Graves'
ophthalmopathywith OR 1.13 and 1.03, respectively, p
< 0.01 and p < 0.05. Increased TRAb concentration
was associated with exophthalmoson orbital computer
tomography with OR 1.07, 95% CI from 1.02 to 1.13,
p < 0.05. Conclusion: Men have a higher risk
ofsevere ophthalmopathy disease than women. There
was a relationship between TRAb concentration and
Graves' ophthalmopathy.
