Clinical Relevance of Environmental Factors in the Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Thyroid Disease.

Endocrinology and metabolism (Seoul, Korea)

Wiersinga WM.
PMID: 27184015
Endocrinol Metab (Seoul). 2016 Jun;31(2):213-22. doi: 10.3803/EnM.2016.31.2.213. Epub 2016 May 13.

Genetic factors contribute for about 70% to 80% and environmental factors for about 20% to 30% to the pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD). Relatives of AITD patients carry a risk to contract AITD themselves. The 5-year risk can...

Neutrophil extracellular traps in the host defense against sepsis induced by Burkholderia pseudomallei (melioidosis).

Steroids or orbital irradiation are effective in approximately 60% of patients with severe Graves' ophthalmopathy; the improvement of proptosis and extraocular muscle dysfunction, however, is limited. Better results are obtained by the combination of orbital irradiation and systemic steroids....

Gut Microbiome Modulation by Antibiotics in Adult Asthma: A Human Proof-of-Concept Intervention Trial.

Clinical gastroenterology and hepatology : the official clinical practice journal of the American Gastroenterological Association

Van Engelen TSR, Yang J, Haak BW, Bonta PI, Van Der Poll T, Wiersinga WJ.

Timeliness of antibiotics for patients with sepsis and septic shock.

Journal of thoracic disease
