Filter by:This is a pilot, single-center, prospective, open-label clinical investigation of a medical device (ambulatory gamma camera " MoTI " (Mobile Therapy Imager)) for patients with hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, toxic nodule and toxic multiheteronodular goiter) for whom 131I treatment is indicated. Its aim is to assess the feasibility of using this ambulatory gamma camera (MoTI) in the clinic in this patient population. The camera will be used to measure the 131I uptake/fixation rates during the thyroid scintigraphy. 20 patients will be included in the study.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the correlation between COVID-19 and hyperthyroidism in Patients with hyperthyroidism complicated with COVID-19. The main questions it aims to answer are: - The main research object is Graves disease (GD) patients. - Changes of hyperthyroidism in GD patients complicated with COVID-19 - Changes of anxiety and depression in GD patients before and after SARS-CoV-2 infection. - The effect of psychological intervention in GD patients after COVID-19. Participants will have regular follow-upfor one year to hyperthyroidism in our hospital, and the investigators will collect the thyroid function and related examination indexes of patients in the corresponding time period.
This randomized controlled study aims to investigate the effects of using a mobile app that integrates with wearable devices to monitor heart rate, check self-reported symptoms, provide disease-related information, and set medication reminders for patients with thyrotoxicosis. The study intends to evaluate how the use of the app affects disease progression, quality of life, and health-related behaviors associated with the disease.
The evaluation of carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) has become a possible predictor of the future risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Evidence to date shows that cIMT augmentation is correlated with the extent of atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries and with other risk factors for CVD. More recently, several studies have evaluated the association of cIMT with stroke, to determine whether this measure can also predict future cardiovascular events. Although the published evidence is scarce and fragmentary, the cIMT retains an increasingly interesting role as a marker of atherosclerotic pathology. The purpose of the study is to analyze cIMT in patients undergoing thyroidectomy to evaluate a possible correlation between the cIMT variation after the procedure and the cause of the thyroid disease, the levels of thyroid hormones, and the lipid or other markers of atherosclerosis levels. The primary endpoint will be the variation of the measure of the cIMT before and after surgery. Secondary endpoints will be: - major cardiovascular adverse events (death, major stroke, minor stroke, transient ischemic attack) in the short-term period (≤30 days after the procedure); - major cardiovascular adverse events (death, major stroke, minor stroke, transient ischemic attack) in the long-term period (>30 days after the procedure); - the technical success of the procedure; - the rate of postoperative complications. To date, there are no data that differentiate patients based on the causes of thyroid disease. The results of the present study will allow for correlating the variation of the cIMT to the causes of thyroid disease, the levels of thyroid hormones, and the levels of lipid and other markers of atherosclerosis. Results from the present study may provide insights into possible areas of quality improvement. It may also influence the economic impact associated with carotid revascularization techniques, in terms of hospital charges and discharges to skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities.
Povidone iodine (PI) solution is an antimicrobial solution that can be used at hip and knee arthroplasty cases. It contains iodine that may be absorbed by the body. This study aims to investigate any absorption caused by PI solution.
The purpose of this study is to compare treatment of hyperthyroidism with radiofrequency ablation or I-131 for solitary autonomous thyroid nodules.
The study aims to investigate the benefits of methimazole treatment in patients with hyperthyroidism, associated with supplementation of L-carnitine and Selenium.
This study aims to verify the clinical value of thyroid ultrasound with microvascular flow imaging in thyrotoxic patients for differential diagnosis between hyperthyroidism and thyroiditis. We intend to use the RS85 Ultrasound device manufactured by Samsung Medison. Graves' disease and painless thyroiditis/subacute thyroiditis are the main cause of thyrotoxicosis. Precise discrimination between Graves' disease and painless thyroiditis/subacute thyroiditis is clinically very important in determining treatment methods, such as the prescription of antithyroid drugs. Primary endpoint was to verify the value of vascularity index, defined by Blood pixel in range of image / Total pixel in range of image .Seondary endpoint was to verify the superiority value of Microvascular flow imaging to discriminate thyrotoxicosis patients compared with Color doppler/ Power doppler ultrasound imaging and conventional ultrasound imaging.
The purpose of this study is to assess if preoperative treatment with Lugol's solution prior to thyroidectomy can reduce the surgical complications hypoparathyroidism and laryngeal nerve palsy
Graves' disease (GD) is the most frequent cause of hyperthyroidism in iodine sufficient countries and Graves' orbitopathy (GO) is its most common extrathyroidal manifestation. Restoration and maintenance of euthyroidism are imperative in Graves' disease patients with GO. The main treatment options for Graves' hyperthyroidism are antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine (RAI), and surgery. Whether one or the other therapy for Graves' hyperthyroidism offers the best protection against GO is not established. The study is aimed at comparing the effects of a conservative approach (antithyroid drugs, ATDs, experimental arm) vs an ablative approach (radioiodine or total thyroidectomy) of thyroid treatment on the overall outcome of GO in patients with GD and moderate-to-severe and active GO treated with intravenous glucocorticoids.
