ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how COVID-19 affects patients who have hyperthyroidism, specifically those with a condition called Graves disease. The researchers want to understand how COVID-19 might change the symptoms of hyperthyroidism and how it impacts the mental health of these patients, looking at levels of anxiety and depression before and after they contract the virus. They will also explore whether providing psychological support can help improve their well-being after dealing with COVID-19.

To be eligible for the trial, participants must be diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and have also tested positive for COVID-19. The study is open to all adults aged 18 and older. If you join, you will have regular check-ups over a year where your thyroid function and other health indicators will be monitored. This study aims to help doctors better understand the relationship between these two conditions and improve care for patients facing both hyperthyroidism and COVID-19.
