The incidence of HL-A8 was significantly increased in 64 Caucasian patients with thyrotoxicosis compared with 700 Australian blood donors (42% versus 24%). No significant correlation was observed between HL-A8 and autoantibodies to thyroid components in thyrotoxic patients; thus the association of HL-A8 must be either with the disease itself, or possibly with immune responses not tested for this study.
与700名澳大利亚献血者相比,64名患有甲状腺毒症的白种人患者中HL - A8的发生率显著增加(42%对24%)。在甲状腺毒症患者中,未观察到HL - A8与甲状腺成分自身抗体之间存在显著相关性;因此,HL - A8与疾病本身相关,或者可能与本研究未检测的免疫反应相关。
