Methodology In this work we analyse longitudinal UK Biobank data to assess all-cause mortality and comorbidity risks associated with the main treatment modalities for 793 participants with hyperthyroidism, specifically antithyroid drugs (ATDs), RAI and thyroidectomy. Results Participants treated with RAI showed reduced all-cause mortality compared with those treated with ATD alone (time to event ratio 1.8, 95% CI 0.9 - 3.6), albeit the result did not reach statistical significance, as did those treated by thyroidectomy (time ratio 2.0, 95% CI 1.1 - 3.9). For treated patients odds ratios were generally elevated for osteoporosis, cardiovascular events and atrial fibrillation, but again did not reach statistical significance except for those patients treated by ATDs with an odds ratio for atrial fibrillation of 2.2 (95% CI 1.2 - 4.1) versus controls. Conclusion Our findings were consistent with those previously reported in the literature, and do not reveal any evidence from the UK Biobank to contradict the safety of RAI being offered as a first-line treatment. The data are also suggestive, however, that treatments do not fully eliminate risks of complications related to hyperthyroidism.
