Prevalence of thyroid disorders in patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura and its impact on treatment
We investigate patients with ITP for screening of thyroid disorders and how to deal with it and effect of this on the ttt

prospective cross sectional study
Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
ITP patients will be classified as newly diagnosed, persistent and chronic based on duration less than 3 months, 3-12 months, and more than 12 months respectively.
Exclusion Criteria:
patients with history of thyroidectomy
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Patients known ITP either newly diagnosed, chronic, refractory Age 18 yrs and above Patients with thyrodiectomy will not be in our study
Diagnostic Test: Search for thyroid disorders · Diagnostic Test: Laboratory test · Drug: Steroid and eltrombopage
TSH , FT3 , FT4
Also known as: Laboratory test
Search for anti thyroid antibodies
See when we treat thyroid disorders, will patient respond to steroid or eltrombopage?
Also known as: Drugs used in ITP
Assess the frequency of thyroid disorders in patients with IT
Screening of thyroid disorders in patients with ITP
Time frame: Assess the frequency of thyroid disorders in patients with IT
Evaluate the treatment of thyroid disorders in improvement in platelets count.
Evaluate if patients have managed according to thyroid disorders, will this affect in their response to ITP management
Time frame: Evaluate the treatment of thyroid disorders in improvement in platelets count.
