The incidence of treated thyrotoxicosis in Northern Ireland has been estimated by the technique of "therapeutic auditing" for the periods (a) three years preceeding the start of the present civil unrest and (b) the ensuing three years. No change in incidence was found, which supports the concept that environmental stress is not important in the pathogenesis of this disease.
