SCREENING OF METAL IONS AMONG PATIENTS WITH AUTOIMMUNE THYROID DISEASES A PILOT STUDY
View through CrossRef
Background: Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs) are organ specific disorders of unknown etiology. Metal ions have been implicated in induction of autoimmunity.
Methods:This analytical cross sectional pilotstudy of 100 patients with AITDs(73females and 27 males; mean age of 34.6+14.7 years) and 100 normal healthy individuals (mean age 38.1+9.4 years; 66 females and 34 males) was performed at King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh. Serumnickel sulfate, titanium and chromiumwere measured by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) instrument (Perkin-Elmer).
