Introduction: Thyroid hormone imbalances are known to significantly affect cardiovascular health, contributing to conditions such as arrhythmias, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Given the increasing prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and its potential impact on cardiovascular outcomes, early diagnosis and intervention are crucial, particularly within specific regional populations.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of thyroid hormone imbalance on cardiovascular health outcomes in patients at Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar, over a 24-month period.

Introduction: Known risk factors for new-onset atrial fibrillation/flutter (NOAF) include thyrotoxicosis and subclinical hypothyroidism. While prior research has predominantly explored the link between thyrotoxicosis and NOAF, the presence of subclinical hypothyroidism among patients presenting with acute NOAF in the emergency department (ED) remains an underexplored area of inquiry. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of undiagnosed thyrotoxicosis and subclinical hypothyroidism in patients with acute NOAF diagnosed in the ED.

The recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients after successful radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) appears to be an unresolved clinical issue and needs to be clearly elucidated. There are many factors associated with AF recurrence, such as duration of AF, male sex, concomitant heart failure, hemodynamic parameters, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, hyperthyroidism, smoking and obesity. However, the inflammatory changes are strongly associated with electrical and structural cardiac remodeling, cardiac damage, myocardial fibrotic changes, microvascular dysfunction and altered reparative response.

Background: Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO) ocular abnormalities can persist even after treatment, negatively impacting patients' psychological and social health. The Indonesian Graves' Ophthalmopathy Quality of Life (GO-QoL) Questionnaire has not been validated, hence it cannot measure patient quality of life, which is crucial to GO treatment. We aimed to provide a reliable Indonesian GO-QoL Questionnaire and identify an association between patient quality of life and clinical activity and the severity of GO.

Numerous thyroid diseases can impact patients' lives, one of which is Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). Graves' ophthalmopathy is a progressive thyroid-related disease that causes eye symptoms due to an autoimmune reaction targeting thyrotropin/thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) receptors in the orbital space. This condition can be easily recognized by the patient, including exophthalmos, pain, swelling, double vision, and impaired vision.
