AI Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the causal relationship between acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and thyroid function-related diseases, specifically disorders of the thyroid gland (DTG) and hypothyroidism, using Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis.
- Univariate MR (UVMR) identified DTG and hypothyroidism as risk factors for ARDS, with results confirmed by sensitivity analysis, whereas multivariate MR (MVMR) found no interaction effects due to these factors acting independently.
- The findings provide strong evidence that DTG and hypothyroidism are connected to ARDS, suggesting the need for further research into their relationships to understand their implications on respiratory health.
Article Abstract
Background: Previous studies have shown an association between acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and thyroid function. However, their causal relationship remains unspecified. Therefore, this study aims to explore the causal relationship between ARDS and thyroid function-related diseases with Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis.
Methods: ARDS dataset finn-b-J10_ARDS, finn-b-E4_THYROID dataset of disorders of the thyroid gland (DTG) and finn-b-E4_HYTHYNAS of hypothyroidism were acquired from public database. In univariate MR (UVMR), causal effects between DTG, hypothyroidism and ARDS were investigated using 5 types of algorithms, and reliability was validated by sensitivity analysis. Moreover, multivariate MR (MVMR), enrichment and interaction network analyses of genes corresponding to SNPs of DTG and hypothyroidism were carried out. Significant level was chosen as p<0.05.
Results: UVMR identified DTG and hypothyroidism ( < 0.05, > 1) as risk factors, and were causally related to ARDS. Reliability of UVMR results was confirmed through sensitivity analysis, and results were stable and reliable. However, DTG and hypothyroidism had no effect on ARDS in MVMR, possibly because these factors had independent effects on ARDS. Ultimately, 96 and 113 genes corresponding to SNPs of DTG and hypothyroidism were found closely related to immune-related pathways.
Conclusions: UVMR and MVMR analysis revealed a causal connection between DTG and hypothyroidism as risk factors with ARDS, providing robust evidence for investigation into relationship of hypothyroidism on ARDS and between DTG and ARDS.

Unlabelled: Radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) is a test used to differentiate hyperthyroidism from thyroiditis and to calculate the radioiodine dose for treatment of Graves' disease. We aimed to evaluate the predictive role of 24h RAIU with respect to the outcome of radioiodine therapy in patients with diffuse toxic goiter (DTG).
Methods: Case records of patients with DTG treated with radioactive iodine were reviewed retrospectively.
Aim: To compare the possible pathogenetic and clinicodiagnostic value of antithyroid autoantibodies (autoAB) different in specificity, such as monospecific ones to thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase (anti-TG and anti-TPO autoAB) and bispecific ones to thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase simultaneously (anti-TGPO autoAB), in patients with autoimmune thyroid diseases.
Materials And Methods: The sera from 240 patients with autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) and from 124 with diffuse toxic goiter (DTG) were examined. The sera from 40 healthy donors served as a control.
A comparative analysis of thyrotoxicosis in 180 males and 121 females has shown that during the recent 15 years the number of males operated upon for diffuse toxic goiter (DTG) has become 2.6 times greater. Thyrotoxicosis in men is characterized by an aggressive course, is followed by cardiac complications, ophthalmopathy, impaired sexual function, appearance of foci of malignant growth, spread of diffuse hyperplasia of the thyroid gland behind the breast bone and trachea.

Complex of measures performed before and after operation for reduction of hypothyroidism rate is developed. Histology examination during operation permits to determine volume of residual thyroid tissue.
