“…As shown in Table 1, LT-ATD treatment is favored for the treatment of Graves' hyperthyroidism to RAI treatment, because it provides more sustained euthyroidism (8)(9)(10)(11)(12) and less chance of variations in serum TSH, causing lower occurrences of both subclinical and clinical hypo-and hyperthyroidism during long years of management (8,(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). In addition, RAI therapy is strongly associated with the worsening of thyroid orbitopathy (11,(18)(19)(20), increased BMI, and derangement of lipid profile (21)(22)(23)(24)(25). Furthermore, the quality of life is decreased in RAI versus LT-ATD-treated subjects (8,26).…”
