Abstract

PURPOSE: The primary aim was to study the risk of cardiovascular mortality in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). Secondary aims were to evaluate all-cause mortality and explore the relation between thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; also known as thyrotropin) level and these outcome parameters. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Subjects from two cohorts were retrospectively compared by Cox regression analyses; 524 patients with DTC and 1,572 sex- and age-matched controls from a large population-based study in the same geographic region. RESULTS: Mean age plus or minus standard deviation was 49 ± 14 years. Median follow-up was 8.5 years (interquartile range [IQR], 4.1 to 15.9 years) for patients with DTC and 10.5 years (IQR, 9.9 to 10.9 years) for controls. One hundred patients with DTC (19.1%) died, 22 (4.2%) as a result of cardiovascular disease, 39 (7.4%) as a result of DTC, and 39 (7.4%) as a result of other/unknown causes. Eighty-five controls (5.4%) died, 24 (1.5%) as a result of cardiovascular disease and 61 (3.9%) as a result of other/unknown causes. Patients with DTC had an increased risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality (hazard ratios [HRs], 3.35 [95% CI, 1.66 to 6.74] and 4.40 [95% CI, 3.15 to 6.14], respectively, adjusted for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors). Within the DTC group, TSH level was predictive for cardiovascular mortality; the adjusted HR was 3.08 (95% CI, 1.32 to 7.21) for each 10-fold decrease in geometric mean TSH level. CONCLUSION: The risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality is increased in patients with DTC, independent of age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors. A lower TSH level is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, supporting the current European Thyroid Association and the American Thyroid Association guidelines of tempering TSH suppression in patients with low risk of cancer recurrence. Furthermore, patients with DTC may benefit from assessment and treatment of cardiovascular risk factors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
