“…IL-6 and TNF-a, which are pro-inflammatory cytokines, and increased ACE2 expression in the vascular endothelium are the underlying mechanisms of post-COVID thyroid disturbances. COVID-19 thyroid involvement can manifest as sick euthyroid syndrome, subacute thyroiditis (SAT), Graves' disease, postpartum thyroiditis, Hashimoto's disease, and silent thyroiditis [54][55][56]. SARS-CoV-2 may catalyze SAT.…”
