View clinical trials related to Hyperthyroidism.
Filter by:Hypothyroidism (HoT) treatment involves lifelong thyroxine replacement therapy and regular monitoring. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of clinical pharmacist (CP) intervention in managing drug-related problems (DRPs) on outcomes among hypothyroid patients receiving levothyroxine (LT4) therapy.
A prospective randomised controlled open label, single centre study. subjects will be randomised into lithium or carbimazole arms in a 1:1 ratio. Lithium arm will receive tab Lithium Carbonate 300mg daily while Carbimazole arm will receive tab Carbimazole 10mg daily for a duration of two months prior to radioactive iodine treatment. Changes in the thyroid hormone levels at 2 months of treatment and at months 1,3 and 6 following radioactive iodine will be evaluated.
The thyroid gland has been shown to be a common target for COVID 19 virus. Babies born to mothers positive for COVID 19 infections were noticed to have elevated thyroid stimulating hormone ( TSH ) levels on screening. Thyroid function tests were monitored in these babies to determine presence of temporary or permanent thyroid disorders following COVID 19 infections during pregnancy.
During July 2019 to August 2020, a single-blind clinical trial was done to 36 patients with Graves' disease. At the beginning of the study, subjects were accommodated into 2 groups, 17 into PTU groups and 19 into methimazole groups. There were 24 subjects who finished the study, 13 from PTU group and 11 from methimazole group. Blood serum was collected for HOMA-IR, LDL-R, NFĸB, sICAM-1, sVCAM-1 and sE-selectin examination. Meanwhile stiffness and thickness of carotid artery was measured using PWV and cIMT.
The study series consists of three studies with the aim to assess the incidence, prevalence, risk factors, comorbidities and management of patients with alopecia areata in Czech Republic based on the patients and registry of a dermatology clinic of a metropolitan hospital.
The main focus of the study is the assessment of hormonal function in the course of COVID-19 infection with special regard for trends predicting clinical events defined as primary endpoints of the study.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the potential of a new large field CZT gamma camera to estimate the thyroid uptake (TU) on Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and SPECT/CT images in comparison with standard planar scintigraphy. The secondary objective is to analyze the diagnostic contribution of SPECT/CT imaging.
The investigators want to investigate if a continuous heart rate monitoring with a wrist worn fitnesstracker can be useful in the treatment and surveillance of patients suffering from Graves' disease.The aim of our research project is two-fold: First, to evaluate the use of continuous heart rate monitoring as a potential substitute for hormone measurements during treatment of hyperthyroidism. Second, to use continuous heart rate monitoring as a tool for early detection of relapse after discontinuation of antithyroid drugs.
This project will examine the role of the whole body, PET and SPECT imaging before, during and after radionuclide treatment for 177Lu-Dotatate therapy, whole body and SPECT imaging for 131-I for thyroid cancer therapy, and whole-body imaging for 131I for hyperthyroidism therapy. Whole-body and SPECT images will be linked to personal dosimeter readings to determine whether - Current radiation protection advice for patients receiving radionuclide treatment is appropriate. - Radiopharmaceutical retention and/or SUV change in patients undergoing repeated radionuclide treatments. - Data combined from early (quantitative imaging) and late (whole-body dose rate measurements) could support individual treatment planning for patients undergoing repeated cycles of molecular therapy.
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate physical activity level and functional exercise capacity in patients with hyperthyroid. The secondary aim of the study is assessment of respiratory function, peripheral and respiratory muscle strength, respiratory muscle endurance, fatigue, depression, anxiety, stress, sleep and quality of life in patients with hyperthyroid and compare them with healthy controls.
