Increasing evidence suggests overt and subclinical hyperthyroidism are associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This work prospectively investigated the hypothesis that poor outcome may be related to persisting cardiovascular abnormalities, particularly atrial fibrillation (AF). Cardiovascular symptoms, signs and haemodynamic disturbances were common in overt hyperthyroidism and persisted both during and after effective antithyroid therapy. AF was more prevalent in overt hyperthyroidism and persisted during and after effective antithyroid therapy. Cardiac autonomic...
