Summary

Aim of the study: This study aimed to evaluate 8-OHdG and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1 alpha) levels in patients with hypoactive thyroid nodules (toxic multinodular goiter, Graves' disease, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis), as these parameters may be related to oxidative stress and the pathogenesis of cancer.
