Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between the longitudinal trajectory of perioperative changes in TSH and recovery after microwave ablation of benign thyroid nodules.Methods:251 BTN patients admitted to our hospital from October 2021 to October 2024 were selected as the study subjects,and the group-based trajectory mod-eling(GBTM)model grouping principle was applied to determine the development trajectory of TSH levels.Multiple lin-ear regression was used to analyze the relationship between thyroid function and serum inflammatory factors before and after surgery in patients with different TSH level development trajectories;Cox regression was used to analyze the relationship between TSH level change trajectories and therapeutic efficacy and trend test was performed;binary log-binomial regression model was applied to calculate the relative risk(RR)of postoperative complication rates in different groups of patients.Results:In patients with BTN,four different trajectories of TSH level development were identified:low-stable(90 cases),low-growth(47 cases),medium-growth(63 cases),and high-growth(51 cases).There was a sta-tistically significant difference in surgical efficacy between the developmental trajectories of different TSH levels(P<0.05),and the low-stable type had the highest apparent and overall efficacy rates,followed by the low-growth type.The postoperative and preoperative thyroid function indexes and serum inflammatory factors of patients with different TSH level development trajectories showed statistical differences(P<0.05),the postoperative index levels of FT3 and FT4 were lower than preoperative,and the postoperative index levels of IL-8,hs-CRP,and TNF-α were higher than the preoperative ones,and the postoperative indexes of thyroid function(FT3,FT4)and serum inflammatory factors of the four groups of patients(IL-8,hs-CRP,TNF-α)showed statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The results of multiple linear regression showed that TSH levels were negatively correlated(P<0.05)with thyroid function indices(FT3,FT4)and positively correlated(P<0.05)with serum inflammatory factors(IL-8,hs-CRP,TNF-α).The results of COX re-gression analysis showed that the difference in trend test was statistically significant(P<0.001)among low-growth,medium-growth,and high-growth types,using low-stable type as a reference.The difference in the total postopera-tive complication rate among the four groups was statistically significant(P<0.05),and the risk of total postoperative complications was elevated in patients with low-growth,medium-growth,and high-growth types compared with low-stable types(RR>1,P<0.05).Conclusion:TSH levels were closely associated with recovery after microwave ablation of benign thyroid nodules,TSH levels were negatively correlated with FT3 and FT4,and positively correlated with IL-8,hs-CRP,and TNF-α.The low-stabilized type had the highest apparent and total efficiency,followed by the low-growth type.
