Autoimmune Thyroiditis

Men who consumed more dietary vitamin E may be less likely to develop subclinical hypothyroidism and autoimmune thyroiditis, though no associations were observed among women, according to findings published in Thyroid.

Among children with thyroid nodules, those with autoimmune thyroiditis have a higher risk for developing thyroid cancer compared with those without autoimmune thyroiditis, according to a study published in Thyroid.

Increased genetic risk for Graves’ disease, autoimmune thyroiditis or hyperthyroidism is not associated with low bone mineral density or fracture risk, according to an analysis of UK Biobank data.
