Treatment Guidelines for Patients With Hyperthyroidism and Hypothyroidism
Abstract
Objective To develop a set of minimum clinical guidelines for use by primary care physicians in the evaluation and management of patients with hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. Participants Guidelines were developed by a nine-member ad hoc Standards of Care Committee of the American Thyroid Association (the authors of this article). The participants were selected by the committee chair and the president of the American Thyroid Association on the basis of their clinical experience. The committee members represented different geographic areas within the United States, in order to take into account different practice styles. Evidence Guidelines were developed on the basis of expert opinion of the participants, as well as on available published information. Consensus process Input was obtained from all of the participants, each of whom wrote an initial section of the document. A complete draft document was then written by three participants (P.A.S., D.S.C., and E.G.L.) and resubmitted to the entire committee for revision. The revised document was then submitted to the entire membership of the American Thyroid Association for written comments, which were then reviewed (mainly by P.A.S., D.S.C., and E.G.L.). Many of the suggestions of the American Thyroid Association members were incorporated into the final draft, which was then approved by the Executive Council of the American Thyroid Association. The entire process, from initial drafts to final approval, took approximately 18 m…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
