Kim and co-workers has recently presented a study which demonstrated an increase in
urinary 8-isoprostoglandin levels in patients with Graves’ hyperthyroidism [
[1]
]. They suggested that urinary 8-isoprostoglandin can be used as a biomarker in hyperthyroid patients.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
