Vitamin D, selenium in type 2 diabetes and Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Is it effective?

ABSTRACT

The study by Feng et al, explores treatment approaches for these coexisting conditions. It emphasizes the potential advantages of selenium and vitamin D supplementation but also raises methodological and patient selection concerns. Findings indicate a complex interplay between interventions and disease markers, prompting the need for further research. Despite limitations, the study offers valuable insights into managing the intricate relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The authors' contributions shed light on potential treatment avenues, although careful consideration of study design and patient characteristics is warranted for future investigations in this domain.
