Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the incidence of thyroid nodule in population of Yangzhou City and analyze the related influencing factors, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating prevention and control strategies for thyroid nodule.Methods:From January to August 2023, permanent residents (≥8 years old) of 36 towns/streets in 6 counties (cities and districts) of Yangzhou City were randomly selected as the survey subjects. A total of 2 033 subjects were included in the study for questionnaire survey, thyroid nodule was examined by B-ultrasound, and urinary iodine and salt iodine level were determined. SPSS 26.0 software was used for χ 2-test and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:Among 2 033 survey subjects, 705 patients with thyroid nodule were detected, the detection rate was 34.68%. The detection rate of thyroid nodule in female (40.37%, 480/1 189) was significantly higher than that in male (26.66%, 225/844), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 = 40.97, P < 0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that women [odds ratio ( OR) = 2.07], age (40 - 59 and ≥60 years old: OR = 1.60, 3.17), hypertension ( OR = 1.62) and immediate family members with goiter/nodule ( OR = 2.77) were all positively correlated with the risk of thyroid nodule ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:The detection rate of thyroid nodule in population of Yangzhou City is relatively high, and special attention should be paid to women, those with hypertension, the elderly, and immediate family members with goiter/nodule.
