Filter by:The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare letrozole alone versus letrozole plus levothyroxine for ovulation induction in infertile women with both PCOS and subclinical hypothyroidism. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is letrozole plus levothyroxine superior to letrozole alone in achieving ovulation in these patients? Does combining levothyroxine with letrozole lead to higher pregnancy and live birth rates compared to letrozole alone? Participants will be randomized into two groups: Group 1 will receive letrozole only, starting at 2.5 mg daily from day 3 to 7 of the menstrual cycle. The dose will be increased up to 7.5 mg if no ovulation occurs, for a maximum treatment period of 6 months or until pregnancy is achieved. Group 2 will receive letrozole at the same doses as group 1 plus 25 mcg levothyroxine daily.
Chronic inflammation in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be the result of dysregulation of cytokine production (due to insulin resistance, excess visceral fat and hyperandrogenemia), i.e., overproduction of pro-inflammatory factors (e.g. TNF, IL-1, IL-6) in relation to anti-inflammatory ones (IL-10). This condition may be an important link between obesity and insulin resistance, which is crucial in the etiopathogenesis of the syndrome. However, it is not known whether it results from the tendency to accumulate adipose tissue or is a feature of the syndrome itself. Concomitant endocrinopathies, i.e. obesity, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, diabetes and thyroid diseases, may additionally influence the activity of chronic inflammation. There is no data indicating the relationship between chronic inflammation and PCOS phenotypes, the severity of metabolic disorders, ovarian reserve and the influence of thyroid function on its activity in PCOS.
Females with sub-clinical hypothyroidism may exhibit frequent cognitive problems especially if they are elderly
this study may help the physicians to evaluate the practice of universal screening of sub-clinical hypothyroidism and thyroid-stimulating hormone level. Detection of sub-clinical hypothyroidism early in pregnancy through thyroid-stimulating hormone sampling in the first trimester will allow achieving proper management and better maternal and neonatal outcome of these patients.
The human gut microbiome has been associated with many health factors but variability between studies limits the exploration of effects between them. This study aims to systematically characterize the gut microbiota of various critical chronic diseases, compare the similarities and differences of the microbiome signatures linked to different regions and diseases, and further investigate their impacts on microbiota-based diagnostic models.
Dietary intervention with Únicla dairy products, naturally enriched with selenium and omega-3 fatty acids, may improve thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels in women with subclinical hypothyroidism
Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is common among the elderly population and has been associated with neuromuscular impairment. Muscular symptoms such as weakness, myalgia and cramps are more often reported by SCH patients compared to euthyroid controls. Sarcopenia is the age-related loss of muscular mass and function and its assessment includes three dimensions (muscle quantity, muscle strength and physical performance). To date, evidence is lacking about the effect of thyroid hormone replacement on skeletal muscle impairment in SCH patients. The aim of the study is therefore to evaluate the impact of levothyroxine therapy on sarcopenia measures in SCH. This is a nested substudy within two large international multicenter randomized controlled trial of elderly participants with SCH (TRUST Study, clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT 01660126; and IEMO Study, Netherland Trial Register ID NTR3851). Those two trials shared a very similar study design. The cohorts will therefore be analyzed as a single study population.
The investigators propose the following hypothesis: discontinuation of levothyroxine (LT4) for veterans with subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) will be feasible, acceptable, and safe and will not negatively affect their Quality of Life (QoL). The investigators aim to evaluate the feasibility of LT4 discontinuation among veterans with SCH and determine the changes in QoL measures, lipids, and adverse events.
This study aims to recognize the effects of subclinical hypothyroidism on bone mineral density, Not many studies were done on this subject
2. Aim/ Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical, laboratory and echocardiographic findings in children with SCH. To investigate the effect of replacement therapy with levothyroxine on cardiovascular risk factors in children with SCH.
