CLINICAL THYROIDOLOGY FOR THE PUBLIC
VOLUME 11 ISSUE 8

In this issue, the studies ask the following questions:

• Can we predict the likelihood of developing neonatal Graves' disease prior to the onset of symptoms?
• Are thyroid levels in the mother associated with child scores on standardized tests?
• How much do thyroid tests change in individuals without thyroid disease?
• Is NIFTP a benign subtype of papillary thyroid cancer?
• Should NIFTP still be considered a cancer?
  
• Is active surveillance appropriate for small, low risk thyroid cancers?
  

We welcome your feedback and suggestions. Let us know what you want to see in this publication.

As patients with thyroid disease navigate the challenges to their quality of life and researchers and physicians look for more effective directions, we at the ATA have our own destination– funding for critical thyroid research, prevention, and treatment. For 95 years, the ATA has led the way in thyroidology. It's a daily obstacle course to find new drugs, better treatments, advanced surgical methods, and more rapid diagnoses for the 20 million Americans who have some form of thyroid disease.

Through your generous support and donations, research takes the lead and hope is on the horizon. Will you join us in our campaign to raise $1.5 million for thyroid research, prevention, and treatment? Find out More....
