Example Sentences:

(19) The development of AIT or AIH was not related to the extent of iodine overload or to the occurrence of de novo thyroid autoantibodies.
(20) Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) occurs most frequently in patients with underlying thyroid disease and is generally believed to be due to the iodine contamination of amiodarone and iodine released by the metabolism of the drug.
