Abstract

Graves' disease is a common autoimmune condition that affects the thyroid gland, leading to hyperthyroidism and significant effects on quality of life, such as psychiatric symptoms, incapacity for work, and increased risk of death. This article addresses the epidemiological aspects, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of Graves' disease (GD), emphasizing the importance of effective management of this condition. The objective is to improve clinical practices and reduce the impact of the disease on the affected population. The methodology used was a systematic review of the literature, examining experimental and non-experimental studies in databases such as PubMed, Medline, SciELO, and Google Scholar. The selection of articles was based on criteria that included direct relevance to the topic and full availability in English. The data found indicate that GD manifests through symptoms such as weight loss, anxiety, and tachycardia, often exacerbated by emotional stress and environmental factors. Differential diagnosis is crucial to exclude other causes of hyperthyroidism, and laboratory tests, such as thyroid hormone levels and anti-thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAB), are essential in the investigation. Treatment involves the use of antithyroid medications, radioactive iodine therapy and, in some cases, surgery, in addition to continuous monitoring of thyroid function. Evidence-based practices are essential to optimize clinical outcomes and minimize the consequences of this condition in the population
