ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on understanding the mental health of patients with thyroid cancer, specifically looking at how common anxiety and depression are in this group. Researchers also want to learn more about how thyroid cancer affects the overall quality of life for these patients. The study is currently not recruiting participants, but it aims to include adults aged 18 and older who do not have a history of other mental health issues and are willing to take part in the research.

If you are eligible, you will be asked to share your experiences and feelings about living with thyroid cancer. This could help doctors and researchers better understand the emotional challenges faced by patients and improve support for future patients. It's important to note that individuals with previous mental health conditions or substance abuse issues won't be included in the study. Your participation could make a difference in how thyroid cancer care is approached in the future!
