초록

목적: 고용량 스테로이드 주사 후 임상 활동도 점수(clinical activity score, CAS), 안구돌출도, 눈꺼풀각막반사간거리1 (margin-reflex distance 1, MRD1), 자가항체 수치 변화를 확인하고자 하였다. 대상과 방법: 갑상샘눈병증 진단 후 고용량 정맥 스테로이드 주사한 83명의 환자에 대해 후향적 연구가 이루어졌다. 안구돌출도, MRD1, CAS, 갑상샘자극항체(thyroid-stimulating antibody, TSAb), 갑상샘자극호르몬수용체항체(thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody, TSHR Ab)는 치료 시작 전 기저 수치, 치료 시작 6주, 12주 후, 치료 종료 2개월 후 평가되었다. 또한 기저 혈청 셀레늄수치가 치료 예후와의 관계를 확인하기 위해 평가되었다. 결과: TSAb, TSHRAb 그리고 CAS는 치료 종료 2개월 후까지 지속적인 감소를 보였으며, 각각 443.2 specimen-to-reference control ratio (SRR%)에서 341.03 SRR%, 22.18 IU/L에서 7.91 IU/L, 3.37에서 1.88 (p<0.0001)로 나타났다. 안구돌출도는 기저 수치와비교하여 유의미한 효과를 보이는 시점은 없었으며, MRD1은 치료 시작 12주째 감소를 보였으나, 치료 종료 2개월 후에는 차이가 확인되지 않았다. 기저 혈청 셀레늄 수치와 안구돌출도, MRD1, TSAb, TSHR Ab, CAS의 변화 간 상관관계는 보이지 않았다. 결론: 고용량 정맥 스테로이드 치료는 TSAb, TSHR Ab 및 CAS의 개선에 있어 효과적이며 치료 종료 2개월째까지도 지속된 효과를보여준다. 하지만 눈꺼풀뒤당김 및 안구돌출도의 완화 측면에 있어서는 한계가 확인되며, 기저 셀레늄 수치는 임상 양상 변화와 상관관계를 보이지 않았다.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of intravenous steroid therapy on the clinical activity score (CAS), exophthalmos, margin-reflex distance 1 (MRD1), and autoantibody levels in patients with thyroid eye disease. Methods: In this retrospective observational study, we enrolled 83 patients diagnosed with thyroid eye disease treated with intravenous steroid therapy. We assessed exophthalmos, MRD1, CAS, thyroid-stimulating antibody (TSAb), and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TSHR Ab) levels at baseline, 6 and 12 weeks after initiating therapy, and 2 months after therapy termination. Additionally, baseline serum selenium levels were examined to determine their impact on treatment efficacy. Results: TSAb, TSHRAb, and CAS levels showed a continuous decline from 443.22 to 341.03 specimen-to-reference control ratio (SRR%), 22.18 to 7.91 IU/L, and 3.37 to 1.88, respectively (p < 0.0001), up to 2 months following therapy termination. Exophthalmos did not show significant changes at any assessed time point up to 2 months after therapy termination. MRD1 decreased until 12 weeks after therapy initiation but showed no significant change 2 months later. No correlation was found between baseline serum selenium levels and changes in exophthalmos, MRD1, TSAb, TSHR Ab, or CAS. Conclusions: Intravenous steroid therapy was effective in reducing TSAb, TSHR Ab, and CAS levels up to 2 months after therapy termination. However, it had limited positive impact on exophthalmos or eyelid retraction. Baseline selenium levels did not correlate with the changes in any of the examined parameters.
