    Removal of dental Amalgam decreases anti-TPO and anti-Tg autoantibodies in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis.
    Sterzl I1, Prochazkova J, Hrda P, Matucha P, Bartova J, Stejskal V.
    Author information
    Erratum in
    Neuro Endocrinol Lett. 2007 Oct;28(5):iii.
    Abstract
    OBJECTIVES:
    The impact of dental amalgam removal on the levels of anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) and anti-thyroglobulin (anti-Tg) antibodies was studied in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) with and without mercury allergy.
    METHODS:
    Thirty-nine patients with AT were tested by an optimized lymphocyte proliferation test MELISA for allergy (hypersensitivity) to inorganic mercury. Patients were divided into two groups: Group I (n = 12) with no hypersensitivity to mercury and Group II (n = 27) with hypersensitivity to mercury. Amalgam fillings were removed from the oral cavities of 15 patients with hypersensitivity to mercury (Group IIA) and left in place in the remaining 12 patients (Group IIB). The laboratory markers of AT, anti-TPO and anti-Tg autoantibodies, were determined in all groups at the beginning of the study and six months later.
    RESULTS:
    Compared to levels at the beginning of the study, only patients with mercury hypersensitivity who underwent amalgam replacement (Group IIA) showed a significant decrease in the levels of both anti-Tg (p=0.001) and anti-TPO (p=0.0007) autoantibodies. The levels of autoantibodies in patients with or without mercury hypersensitivity (Group I and Group IIB) who did not replace amalgam did not change.
    CONCLUSION:
    Removal of mercury-containing dental amalgam in patients with mercury hypersensitivity may contribute to successful treatment of autoimmune thyroiditis.

    Summary:

    • IF, and only IF, you are hypersensitive to ingredient X, then your health will benefit if you reduce exposure to ingredient X.
    • If you are NOT hypersensitive to ingredient X, then reducing your exposure to ingredient X will have no effect at all on your health.

    Somehow, this doesn’t sound like a new discovery…

    Mercury and thyroid autoantibodies in U.S. women, NHANES 2007-2008.
    Gallagher CM1, Meliker JR.
    Author information
    Abstract
    Associations between positive thyroid autoantibodies and total blood mercury in women were evaluated using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 2007-2008. Women are at increased risk for autoimmune disorders, mercury exposure has been associated with cellular autoimmunity and mercury accumulates in the thyroid gland. We used multiple logistic regression to evaluate the associations between total bloodmercury and thyroglobulin autoantibody antibody positivity and thyroid peroxidase autoantibody positivity in non-pregnant, non-lactating women aged 20 and older not currently using birth control pills or other hormone therapies, adjusted for demographic factors, menopausal status, nutrient intake and urine iodine (n=2047). Relative to women with the lowest mercury levels (≤0.40 μg/L), women with mercury >1.81 μg/L (upper quintile) showed 2.24 (95% CI=1.22, 4.12) greater odds for thyroglobulin autoantibody positivity (p(trend)=0.032); this relationship was not evident for thyroid peroxidase autoantibody positivity. Results suggest an association between mercury and thyroglobulin autoantibody positivity.

    Summary:

    • There are many materials that are poisonous. Poisonous materials have adverse effects on the body.
