From the Guidelines

For appraisal of hyperthyroidism management, a journal may include case studies evaluating the efficacy of methimazole (10-20mg daily for 12-18 months) versus propylthiouracil (100-200mg daily for 6-12 months) in achieving euthyroidism, as recommended by the American Thyroid Association 1.

Key Considerations

  • The journal may assess the outcomes of radioactive iodine ablation (3.7-7.4 MBq) in patients with Graves' disease, including the incidence of hypothyroidism and the need for subsequent levothyroxine replacement (50-200mcg daily) 1.
  • The journal may also examine the role of beta blockers, such as propranolol (20-40mg daily), in managing symptomatic hyperthyroidism, particularly in patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism 1.

Relevant Journals

Some examples of journals that may be relevant for appraisal of hyperthyroidism management include:

  • Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism
  • Thyroid
  • Journal of Thyroid Research
  • European Thyroid Journal These journals may publish studies on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of hyperthyroidism, including the use of antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine ablation, and beta blockers.
