Thyroid Surgery's heart impact study pulled before start
NCT ID NCT05774535
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to see if thyroid surgery changes the thickness of the carotid artery, which is a sign of heart disease risk. It planned to measure artery thickness before and after surgery in adults with various thyroid conditions. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
