Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

In this study, the dose of methimazole was adjusted according to the different states of thyroid function, and the effects of conventional therapy and intensive therapy on the cumulative recurrence of Graves' hyperthyroidism after two years of drug withdrawal were evaluated. At the same time, the changes of immune indexes and inflammatory factors in the regulation process were evaluated. This study is a phase IV clinical study designed and carried out by the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University (Jiangsu Province Hospital), which is a randomized, open and routine treatment group with parallel control.
