Effects of Vitamin D deficiency treatment on metabolic markers in Hashimoto thyroiditis
patients
Background: The aim of the current trial was to investigate the effect of Vitamin D treatment on metabolic markers in people with Vitamin D deficiency and thyroid autoimmunity. Materials and Methods: In this double‑blind, randomized, placebo‑controlled clinical trial, 65 Vitamin D deficient euthyroid or hypothyroid patients with positive TPO‑Ab were enrolled. They randomly allocated into two groups to receive oral Vitamin D3 (50000 IU weekly) and placebo for 12 weeks. Serum concent...
Meta-Analysis of the Association between Vitamin D and Autoimmune Thyroid Disease
Abstract: Although emerging evidence suggests that low levels of vitamin D may contribute to the development of autoimmune disease, the relationship between vitamin D reduction and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), which includes Graves’ disease (GD) and Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT), is still controversial. The aim was to evaluate the association between vitamin D levels and AITD through systematic literature review. We identified all
studies that assessed the association between vitamin D and AITD ...
