Influence of body mass index on the clinicopathological features of 13,995 papillary thyroid tumors.

摘要: This retrospective study aimed to assess the association between obesity, gender, and specific clinicopathological features in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) whether diagnostic ultrasonography (US) is adversely affected by obesity these patients. retrospectively analyzed 13,995 adult PTC from a single medical center China. Data stratification was performed of US aggressive different models according World Health Organization Body Mass Index (WHO-BMI) Chinese BMI classification (CN‐BMI). The odds ratio (OR) malignant calculated binary logistic regression models. BMI, ratio, features, pathological characteristics males were significantly higher than those females. After adjusting for confounding factors, found be sex-dependent. Next, have an “interfering effect” on assessment (OR = 0.754, 95% CI 0.609–0.932, P = 0.009) women. Among both sexes, increased risk tumor size (ORmale = 1.539 ORfemale = 1.521) multifocality (ORmale = 1.659 ORfemale = 1.449). However, did not increase capsular invasion or staging males. above results are consistent CN-BMI. In addition, age evaluation nodules sexes. our confirm that associated PTC. Gender differences present ratios being men.
