About this study
Official title: The Influence of Reducing Diets on Changes in Thyroid Parameters in Women Suffering From Obesity and Hashimoto's Disease
Hashimoto's disease is listed among the most common endocrine causes of obesity. As treatment of obesity in women with Hashimoto's disease is frequently unsuccessful, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two different reducing diets and their influence on changes in thyroid parameters in the female patients. A six-month observational/interventional study was performed on 100 women aged 18-65 years, previously diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease and obesity and receiving L-thyroxine. The women were randomly assigned to the test group (group A, n=50) following elimination/reducing diets, and the control group (group B, n=50) following reducing diets with the same caloric content (without elimination). Anthropometric and thyroid parameters were evaluated at the beginning, after 3 months and after 6 months of treatment.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Individually balanced elimination/reducing dietsBehavioural
Participants received diets in the range of 1400-1600 kcal/day (with a deficit of about 1000 kcal/day, depending on the resting metabolism and energy expenditure during the day). At the initial visit and every subsequent month, the women received individually balanced elimination/reducing diets, in accordance with the previously performed food sensitivity tests for 6 months. Laboratory tests for type III food sensitivity in the IgG1-3 class using the ELISA method were performed in an accredited medical laboratory. Diets were designed by a qualified dietitian using the Aliant (Poland) diet calculator. Each diet had the same macronutrient content - 25% protein, 30% fat, and 45% carbohydrate, and met the daily requirements for micro and macro elements for the given age group.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Hashimoto's disease is listed among the most common endocrine causes of obesity. As treatment of obesity in women with Hashimoto's disease is frequently unsuccessful, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two different reducing diets and their influence on changes in thyroid parameters in the female patients. A six-month observational/interventional study was performed on 100 women aged 18-65 years, previously diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease and obesity and receiving L-thyroxine. The women were randomly assigned to the test group (group A, n=50) following elimination/reducing diets, and the control group (group B, n=50) following reducing diets with the same caloric content (without elimination). Anthropometric and thyroid parameters were evaluated at the beginning, after 3 months and after 6 months of treatment.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Effect of reducing/elimination diets based on IgG1-3 food sensitivity tests and standard balanced reducing diets on body weight changes in patients from obesity and Hashimoto's disease. (time frame: This measurement was repeated during 3 visits every 12 weeks.). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04752202, which also lists 8 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Feb 2021.
