Abstract:
Objective To compare the value of 7 different thyroid imaging reporting and data systems(TI-RADS)for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules under the context of Hashimoto thyroiditis(HT).Methods A total of 338 thyroid nodules in 200 HT patients were enrolled,including 167 benign and 171 malignant ones.Kwak-TIRADS,American Thyroid Association(ATA)guideline,American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists(A ACE)/American College of Endocrinology(ACE)/Associazione Medici Endocrinologi(AME)guideline,K-TIRADS of Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology,EU-TIRADS of European Thyroid Association,American College of Radiology(ACR)-TIRADS and 2020 Chinese guidelines for malignant risk stratification of thyroid nodules by ultrasound proposed by the superficial organs and vessels group of the ultrasound medicine branch of the Chinese Medical Association(C-TIRADS)were used for grading of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.Taken pathological results as gold standards,the diagnostic efficacy of 7 kinds of TI-RADS were analyzed.Results The sensitivity of Kwak-TIRADS,ATA guideline,A ACE/ACE/AME guideline,K-TIRADS,EU-TIRADS,ACR-TIRADS and C-TIRADS for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules under the context of HT was 97.08％,98.25％,99.42％,95.91％,99.42％,90.06％and 99.42％,respectively,the specificity was 88.02％,83.23％,82.04％,88.02％,82.04％,86.83％and 84.43％,respectively,and the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.946,0.913,0.907,0.934,0.909,0.916 and 0.960,respectively.The sensitivity of C-TIRADS,EU-TIRADS and A ACE/ACE/AME guideline were all higher than that of K-TIRADS and ACR-TIRADS(all P＜0.05),and the specificity of Kawk-TIRADS and K-TIRADS were both higher than that of C-TIRADS,ATA guideline,EU-TIRADS and AACE/ACE/AME guideline(all P＜0.05),while AUC of C-TIRADS and Kawk-TIRADS were both higher than that of the rest 5 kinds of TI-RADS(all P＜0.05).According to Kwak-TIRADS,ATA guideline,AACE/ACE/AME guideline,K-TIRADS,EU-TIRADS,ACR-TIRADS and C-TIRADS,the malignant rate of different grades nodules identified with the same TI-RADS were significant different(all P＜0.05),which all raised with the increase of TI-RADS grade.Conclusion C-TIRADS and Kawk-TIRADS had better value for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules under the context of HT,among which C-TIRADS had higher sensitivity and Kawk-TIRADS had higher specificity.
