Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of daily behavior,life habits,mental status of the resident population in Beijing City on thyroid nodules.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted using stratified sampling method to investigate the resident population in physical examination organization of Xicheng,Chaoyang,Mentougou and Shunyi districts,who lived in Beijing for more than 15 years,ages between 45-50 years old,and they did not know whether suffered from thyroid nodules.A 1:1 case-control study was used to analyze the relationships between thyroid nodules and mobile phone using time,exercise,sleep and mental stress in males and females.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze relationships between various factors and thyroid nodule in single factor analysis,and if the influence factors in the single factor analysis had statistical significance they will be further analyzed in the multiple factors analysis.Results The total prevalence of thyroid nodules was 35.06％ (331/944),males and females were 27.91％ (144/516) and 43.69％ (187/428),respectively.The prevalence of female was higher than that of male (x2 =25.60,P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that mental stress (males,females:OR =2.106,1.653,95％CI:1.158 ～ 3.831,1.042 ～ 2.622) and using the phone ＞ 3 h (males,females:OR =12.863,5.315,95％CI:1.540 ～ 107.444,1.359 ～ 20.794) were risk factors for thyroid nodules in the male and female populations.Conclusion The occurrence of thyroid nodules maybe related to mental status and using the phone for a long time,but its mechanism needs to be further explored.
