| Definitions |
[NICHD Definition]: An autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation and lymphocytic infiltration of the thyroid gland, sometimes associated with reduced thyroid function. [NCIt Definition]: An autoimmune disorder caused by the production of autoantibodies against thyroid tissue. There is progressive destruction of the thyroid follicles leading to hypothyroidism. [CSP Definition]: Progressive enlargement of the thyroid gland, often associated with hypothyroidism. [NCI-GLOSS Definition]: An autoimmune condition of the thyroid gland (a gland located beneath the larynx). It is caused by the formation of antibodies that attack the thyroid gland and it usually causes hypothyroidism (too little thyroid hormone). Symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, constipation, dry skin, depression, and the inability to exercise. It is more common in females and can run in families. [RADLEX Definition]: Chronic autoimmune thyroiditis, characterized by the presence of high serum thyroid autoantibodies; goiter; and hypothyroidism. [MeSH] [GARD Definition]: Hashimoto’s syndrome, also known as Hashimoto thyroiditis, is part of a group of diseases known as autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs). The immune system attacks the thyroid gland causing inflammation and damage of the gland, which results in reduced thyroid function or “hypothyroidism,” meaning the gland doesn’t make enough thyroid hormone for the needs of the body. Symptoms of Hashimoto’s syndrome may include goiter, a feeling of fullness in the throat, tiredness, weight gain, cold intolerance, and a slowed heart rate. Hashimoto’s syndrome is the most common cause of hypothyroidism in the United States. It is more common in women than in men, and it commonly appears between age 40 and age 60. The cause is still unknown. A person with Hashimoto’s syndrome may not always need treatment. When it is needed, the condition is treated with synthetic thyroid hormone. - this information is from GARD/ORDR/NCATS. [MSH Definition]: Chronic autoimmune thyroiditis, characterized by the presence of high serum thyroid AUTOANTIBODIES; GOITER; and HYPOTHYROIDISM. [HPO Definition]: A chronic, autoimmune type of thyroiditis associated with hypothyroidism. [HPO:probinson] |
