Thyroid Function in Hemodialysis Patients
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study checks thyroid function in people who are on long-term hemodialysis for kidney failure. It aims to see how common thyroid issues are in this group, which could help improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have end-stage kidney disease and have been on regular hemodialysis for at least 3 months.
- You did not have a thyroid problem before starting dialysis.
- You have not taken any thyroid medications in the last 6 months.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have other illnesses or take medications that could affect thyroid tests (like corticosteroids or lithium).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how often people with chronic kidney disease have irregular heartbeats. It compares people on dialysis with those not on dialysis to understand the risk and improve care.
This study looks at whether two simple blood tests (D-dimer and CRP) can help predict heart problems in people on dialysis. If you join, they would check these markers in your blood and see if they relate to your heart health.
This study looks at how thyroid problems (both overactive and underactive) may affect liver function tests. It aims to help researchers understand the link between thyroid and liver health.
This study looks at how well the thyroid gland works in people who are on regular dialysis for kidney failure. By checking thyroid hormone levels, researchers hope to understand thyroid problems in this group and potentially improve their care.
This trial tests whether taking a thyroid hormone supplement helps people who are on hemodialysis and have borderline-high thyroid lab results (high TSH but normal FT4). It’s studying whether treatment changes thyroid-related outcomes or health while on dialysis.
This study looks at thyroid function, cholesterol (lipid profile), and uric acid levels in people on hemodialysis. It aims to understand how these are connected, which could help improve monitoring and care for dialysis patients.
