Metabolomics for Prediction of Relapse in Graves' Disease: Observational Pilot Study

Background: There is a lack of biochemical markers for early prediction of relapse in patients with Graves' disease [GD], which may help to direct treatment decisions. We assessed the prognostic ability of a high-throughput proton NMR metabolomic profile to predict relapse in a well characterized cohort of GD patients. Methods: Observational study investigating patients presenting with GD at a Swiss hospital endocrine referral center and an...
