Filter by:The aim of the study was to investigate the functional and morphological effects of Anethum graveolens L. in patients with thyroiditis and nodular goiter by evaluating hormone levels, anti-Inflammatory markers and comparing thyroid nodule sizes measured by ultrasonography for 90 days. The effect of Anethum graveolens L. was evaluated in euthyroid goiter patients diagnosed with benign thyroid nodule via fine needle aspiration biopsy. Aerial parts of Anethum graveolens L. were dried and grinded to yield a fine powder. Size 1 hydroxypropyl methylcellulose capsules were filled with 300 mg powder. Placebo was prepared in the same manner using maltodextrin. Patients were suggested to take 3 pills a day. Blood samples were collected at the initial and the final day for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO), anti-thyroglobulin (Anti-Tg) and C-reactive protein (CRP) analysis. Nodule sizes were also measured at the beginning and at the end of the trial with ultrasonography to identify the changes and effectiveness of dill dosage forms. After 90 days in the study, the status of TSH, fT3, fT4, anti-TPO and CRP levels were examined in the group with and without Anethum graveolens L.. Again, after the study, the size of thyroid nodules was evaluated in the group who received and did not receive Anethum graveolens L. by ultrasonography.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is effective in decreasing the level of autoantibodies of patients with autoimmune thyroiditis. The investigators hypothesize that processing traumatic memories from events that happened before the illness onset will have a positive impact first on the psyche (a) by decreasing the level of dissociation, alexithymia, anger, and (b) by increasing the quality of life and emotional regulation, than those in the control group. Secondly, it will have an impact on the biological level, by decreasing the level of autoantibodies, antithyroglobulin antibody (anti-Tg) and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (anti-TPO), which are the main antibodies detected in chronic autoimmune thyroiditis.
The most common and feared complications of total thyroidectomy are vocal cord paralyses and hypocalcemia. However, post-thyroidectomy dysphagia is not uncommon and has important consequences on the quality of life (QoL). It should be taken seriously by all clinicians.
This study series consists of four related studies and aims to explore and describe many important elements of alopecia areata over three key areas: (1) the current epidemiology of alopecia areata, (2) the prevalence and incidence of psychiatric co-morbidities in people with alopecia areata, (3) the prevalence and incidence of autoimmune and atopic conditions in people with alopecia areata, and (4) the incidence of common infections in people with alopecia areata.
This case control study aims to determine whether spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is associated with autoimmune diseases and to update the incidence of SCAD in a population-based cohort.
At present, attention to thyroid disease during pregnancy is increasing at home and abroad, but there is relatively little concern about postpartum thyroid disease, especially high incidence of postpartum thyroiditis (PPT). This observational study is to investigate the relationship between different levels of thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and postpartum thyroiditis (PPT) in early pregnancy (1-12 weeks of pregnancy), and to explore whether PPT can be predicted by different TPOAb levels. According to the TPOAb level in early pregnancy, the postpartum of pregnant women was followed up, PPT was detected early, and intervention was performed according to thyroid dysfunction.
The study is aimed at assessing IGF-1R-Abs in patients with Graves' disease, with or without GO, compared with healthy subjects and patients with autoimmune thyroiditis in a cross-sectional investigation.
Autoimmune thyroiditis (AITD) mainly includes Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Grave's disease (GD). Studies have shown that autoimmune thyroiditis is closely related to microbial disorders such as autoimmune thyroiditis However, there is no report on the relationship between oral microecology and autoimmune thyroiditis. Therefore, our group will study the correlation between oral microbiota and AITD.
The aim of the work is to determine whether the use of immunomodulatory drugs could improve the reproductive of outcome of infertile patients who have autoimmune thyroiditis with positive autoimmune antibodies undergoing IVF-ET.
Autoimmune diseases represent a heterogeneous group of pathologies whose etiopathogenic mechanisms are most often unknown. Autoimmune diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in young women and autoimmune thyroid diseases are the most common. Viral infections are the main environmental factors suspected of triggering autoimmune diseases. Several viruses are certainly involved, all of which are possibly capable of triggering an autoimmune response. However, the precise identification of the viruses involved remains to be established. It has been shown for the first time by the 2005 PHRC that enteroviral RNA is present in perioperative specimens of thyroid tissue. However, this case-control study did not show any difference between the thyroid group and the group other thyroid pathologies It has been recently published that Parvovirus is possibly involved in thyroiditis: the parvoviral genome is present in the thyroid tissue of Hashimoto thyroiditis operated and more precisely is present within the thyrocytes itself.
