Brief summary (registry, in English)

Previous studies have proved that the lytic reactivation of latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was significantly associated with the onset of Graves'disease (GD), however, the morbidity of GD and recurrence rate of hyperthyroidism after antithyroid drugs treatment due to lytic reactivation of EBV is not understood. We will recruit patients with newly diagnosed GD and recurrence of hyperthyroidism after antithyroid drugs treatment. In order to confirm lytic reactivation of EBV, the number of EBV DNA copies,mRNA and protein expression of immediate-early, early and late lytic EBV genes,EBV +TRAb+cells will be tested. The proportion of lytic reactivation of EBV in newly diagnosed GD and recurrence of hyperthyroidism was evaluated.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Patients with subacute thyroiditis, hyperfunctioning thyroid nodules, iodine hyperthyroidism, drug-induced hyperthyroidism, or other causes of hyperthyroidism were also excluded. The exclusion criteria for both patients with GD included diabetes, infectious diseases, other chronic diseases, and cancer.

Who the study is looking for

  • The clinical evaluation included patient history, physical examination, and thyroid ultrasonography. Laboratory and diagnostic testing included determination of serum levels of free thyroxine (FT4), T3 ( FT3), thyrotropin (TSH), TPOAb, TGAb, and serum levels of thyrotropin receptor antibody (TRAb).

Age in the registry: 18 years to 70 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
