Значення антитиреоїдних антитіл у діагностиці та прогнозування перебігу захворювань щитоподібної залози

Abstract

The aim of examination of 26 patients with thyroid diseases (autoimmune thyroiditis, diffuse toxic goiter, hypothyrosis) was to generalize the notion about antithyroid antibodies, accentuating their pathogenic, diagnostic and prognostic value. It was established, that increased level of antibodies to microsomal antigen and thyroglobulin can be considered as the marker of subclinical thyroid disorders, the feature of autoimmune process. The decrease of concentration of antibodies 0000against thyroglobulin can indicate the transformation of autoimmune thyroiditis into hypothyrosis. Thus, immunocorrectors must be included to the complex therapy of thuroid diseases.
