A Conservative vs an Ablative Approach for Treatment of Hyperthyroidism in Patients With Graves'...

Graves' Orbitopathy

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.

Clinical Feasibility of Disease Managing Mobile App for Hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism

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.

Povidone Iodine Irrıgation at Hip-Knee Arthroplasty

OsteoarthritisHyperthyroidism1 more

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.

Evaluation of Patients With Thyroid Disorders

HyperthyroidismHypothyroidism1 more

Participants in this study will be patients diagnosed with or suspected to have a thyroid function disorder. These conditions may include: hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroid hormone resistance, Graves' Dermopathy, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) secreting pituitary adenomas. The main purpose of this study is to further understand the natural history, clinical presentation, and genetics of thyroid function disorders. Many of the tests performed are in the context of standard medical care that is offered to all patients with thyroid function disorders. In addition, blood and tissue samples may be taken for research and genetic studies.

Prospective, Observational Study on the Carotid Intima-media Thickness in Patients Undergoing Thyroid...

Plummer DiseaseMultinodular Goiter5 more

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.

Resting Heart Rate Monitoring for Optimized Treatment and Surveillance of Hyperthyroidism

HyperthyroidismGraves Disease

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.
