What does hyperthyroidism affect and what factors affect hyperthyroidism?

Hyperthyroidism, or hyperthyroidism, is caused by a variety of causes, manifested as an endocrine disease with increased levels of thyroid hormone in the blood circulation, and is clinically characterized by hypermetabolic symptoms, goiter, proptosis, and dysfunction of the nervous and cardiovascular systems. The main causes of hyperthyroidism are immunological factors, genetic factors, and other factors.

1. Immune factors: mainly the body's lymphocytes produce an autoantibody against the thyroid gland, which can bind to the thyroid-stimulating receptor of thyroid follicular epithelial cells, causing excessive proliferation of thyroid follicular epithelium and secretion of thyroid hormones, thereby causing hyperthyroidism;

2. Genetic factors: familial hyperthyroidism is not uncommon, identical twins have hyperthyroidism up to 30%-60%, frezy twins are only 3%-9%, there is a familial genetic tendency, may be autosomal recessive inheritance, or autosomal dominant inheritance, etc.;

3. Other reasons: such as thyroid hyperfunctional adenoma, multinodular toxic goiter, etc. In addition, subacute thyroiditis, chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, ** thyroiditis, etc. can be associated with hyperthyroidism, and exogenous iodine increase may also cause hyperthyroidism.

Although hyperthyroidism is an endocrine disease, the prognosis is generally good after the system, and patients with undetected and active** hyperthyroidism can lead to multi-organ involvement and even death due to disease progression. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, the patient should pay attention to it and actively seek medical attention and**.

Dr. Ma from the Thyroid Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Chongqing National Defense Hospital introduced the harm caused by hyperthyroidism

1. Cause hyperthyroidism, eyelid closure or double vision and other eye lesions, and patients with severe hyperthyroidism may be blind later.

2. Emotional instability, tantrums at every turn, resulting in neuroticism, insomnia and other mental disorder symptoms.

3. When taking antithyroid drugs, it will be complicated by mumps, fever or joint pain.

4. Diseases that cause metabolic abnormalities, such as diabetes and liver dysfunction.

5. How can the digestive system of hyperthyroid patients be damaged, which will cause diarrhea or other gastrointestinal dysfunction.

6. Excessive metabolism causes calcium loss and bone becomes fragile, so fractures are more likely to occur.

7. Patients with hyperthyroidism will have symptoms of heart disease such as arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation or heart weakness due to long-term rapid heartbeat.

8. Women will suffer from infertility, miscarriage or stillbirth or premature birth due to this disease.

Big appetite and big voice. Other diseases such as diabetes can also be caused by thyroid and other related diseases.

1. Mental nervous system dysfunction may occur, 2. Arrhythmia, affecting cardiac function, etc.

Dangers of hyperthyroidism:

1. Hyperthyroidism can lead to complications such as muscle weakness and muscle atrophy.

2. Hyperthyroidism can lead to complications such as impaired liver function, hepatocyte necrosis and degeneration, increased aminotransferases, hepatomegaly, cholestatic jaundice, gastrointestinal dysfunction, and extreme weight loss.

3. Hyperthyroidism can lead to tachycardia, arrhythmia, increased blood pressure, heart enlargement, heart failure, angina, myocardial infarction and other hyperthyroid heart diseases.

There is still a lot to know, this disease is likely to cause dizziness, which may cause the neck to become more and more swollen, may also cause the thyroid gland to become more and more serious, may cause the eyeballs to become more and more prominent, and will also affect the quality of sleep.

If you have some understanding, it will bring serious harm to the body, seriously affect the condition of the body, affect the health of the body, and make the body sick, which will lead to some other complications.

Hyperthyroidism will cause a swollen neck, short temper, patients with hyperthyroidism, must pay attention to the regulation of mood, is a good relief effect for patients with hyperthyroidism, but also affects personal sleep, diet will also be greatly affected, the whole body becomes weaker.

Hyperthyroidism is very harmful to the body, it is very easy to cause low immunity, and hyperthyroidism will also make people's body particularly swollen, which is very easy to cause some chronic diseases, especially affecting kidney function and liver function, if hyperthyroidism is particularly serious, it will also cause some diseases.

The hazards of hyperthyroidism include bad mood, periodic paralysis, proptosis, etc., which will affect the normal life of patients and endanger their physical health.

1.Bad mood. Due to the increase of free thyroid hormones in patients with hyperthyroidism, the body's metabolism will be accelerated, and symptoms of sympathetic nervous excitement will appear, such as irritability, irritability, insomnia, palpitations, fatigue, and excessive sweating.

These symptoms may cause patients with hyperthyroidism to have conflicts in their daily interactions with others, affecting their normal life.

2.Periodic paralysis. Patients with hyperthyroidism are induced by strenuous exercise, high carbohydrates and other triggers, potassium ions are transferred from the blood to the cells, and hypokalemia with abnormal distribution of potassium ions occurs, resulting in abnormal cell electrophysiology, unable to produce action potentials, and periodic paralysis, which is manifested as weakness of the lower limbs.

3.Exophthalmos. Infiltrative exophthalmos caused by hyperthyroidism is caused by swelling of the soft tissues in the orbit, connective tissue hyperplasia that makes the eye protrude obviously, and eye movement is restricted.

And the protruding eyeball is prone to secondary bacterial infection, which can lead to keratitis and blindness in severe cases.
