Abstract:

This study suggests that there is no relationship between the clinical assessment of disease severity and serum levels of thyroid hormone in untreated Grave’s disease. Potential variables such as cellular responsiveness to thyroid hormone and/or catecholamines and their resultant effect to produce hyperthyroid symptoms could contribute to the lack of a linear relationship between serum thyroid hormone levels and severity of thyrotoxic symptoms.
