Thyroid function and thyroid homeostasis parameters are associated with increased urinary albumin excretion in euthyroid individuals over 60 years old from NHANES.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The relationship between thyroid function/homeostasis parameters and renal function has been extensively studied. However, the relationship between thyroid function and thyroid homeostasis parameters with albuminuria among elderly individuals remains unclear.

Methods

The population was divided into an albuminuria group and a non-albuminuria group for baseline characteristic difference analysis. Multivariable logistic regression was used to test the association between thyroid function, and thyroid homeostasis parameters and albuminuria. The nonlinear relationship was explored with restricted cubic splines. Meanwhile, we investigated whether the relationship also existed in the diabetes and hypertension subgroups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves we
