Subclinical Thyrotoxicosis and Cardiovascular Risk: Assessment of Circulating Endothelial Progenitor Cells, Proangiogenic Cells, and Endothelial Function

BackgroundSubclinical thyrotoxicosis (SCT) is defined by low or undetectable thyroid-stimulating hormones and normal thyroid hormones. The treatment of SCT is uncertain despite being associated with increased cardiovascular risk (CVR) and mortality. Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (cEPCs) a...
