Abstract Objective To investigate whether the mRNA expression of thyroglobulin ( TG ) and TSH receptor TSHR in lymph node could be used to diagnose metastasis patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Subjects methods Around 156 paraffin samples nodes from 89 PTC after surgery were collected, expressions detected by nested qPCR. Results Compared results confirmed histopathology, 86 out 87 tissues ectopically expressed mRNA, while 66 69 non‐metastasis did not express mRNA. The specificity...

Attenuated insulin-sensitivity (IS) is a characteristic of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and closely linked to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In recent years, many surrogate markers IS have emerged predict NAFLD. A natural log transformation the glucose disposal rate (loge GDR) has been proposed as new model for in patients with T2D. Our aim explore correlation between loge GDR NAFLD normoalbuminuric total 1227 T2D were involved our study. was evaluated by ultrasound. Biochemical...

ABSTRACT Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and hypertension often coexist, insulin resistance (IR) plays an important role in their pathological progression. An increasing number of studies have focused on the relationship between different IR indices hypertension. A natural log transformation glucose disposal rate (log e GDR) has been proposed as a new model for sensitivity patients with T2D. The study aimed to explore GDR T2D patients. This cross‐sectional included 1544 Chinese Clinical biochemical...

Diabetes is an independent risk factor for thyroid nodules (TNs), however, the influencing factors of TNs have not been fully clarified under condition diabetes. Previous studies shown a connection between pituitary-thyroid hormone (TH) functions and in different populations. However, potential link euthyroid patients with diabetes unclear. We aimed to explore correlates type 2 (T2D) patients. This cross-sectional study included 1965 adults T2D. Clinical biochemical data, including TH...

Aims Studies confirm that microalbuminuria (MAU) can not only predict diabetic kidney disease (DKD) but also indicate of systemic vascular endothelial injury. Thyroid hormones (TH) have been reported to be associated with various cardiovascular diseases and cell damage. Currently, few studies the association between free thyroxine (FT4) triiodothyronine (FT3) ratio MAU. The purpose this study was investigate FT4/FT3 MAU in euthyroid patients type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods This...

We assessed the correlation between visceral adiposity index (VAI; a useful indicator of adipose distribution and function) homeostatic model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in participants with normal waist circumference. A cross-sectional study was conducted, which included 1834 Chinese adults. The blood pressure, anthropometric measurements, fasting postprandial glucose, insulin, lipid profiles were measured. VAI HOMA-IR calculated. Participants divided into 4 groups according to...

Substantial evidence has established a strong association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and insulin resistance (IR). Insulin metabolic score (METS-IR) is new more effective comprehensive indicator for measuring IR. Our aim was to investigate the relationship METS-IR NAFLD in T2DM population.

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and serum uric acid (UA) in Chinese children adolescents with idiopathic short stature (ISS).A cross-sectional 91 ISS performed. Anthropometric measurements biochemical parameters were tested. standard deviation score IGF-1 (IGF-1 SDS) calculated.A univariate analysis displayed a significant positive correlation SDS UA (P = 0.004). In multivariate piecewise linear regression, levels increased...

Elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in childhood have recently been found to be the strongest predictive risk factor for coronary artery disease adulthood. There is an increased level of LDL-C children and adolescents with short stature. However, underlying factors associated stature are unknown. In addition, insulin-like growth 1 (IGF-1) short-stature population usually below normal reference range. The aim this study was investigate relationship between IGF-1...
