Although previous meta-analysis showed a dose-response relationship between body mass index (BMI) and thyroid cancer risk, the evidence in Asian populations is very limited
.
Recently, a research article was published in Thyroid, an authoritative journal in the field of thyroid diseases.
Researchers aimed to assess the association between BMI and thyroid cancer risk in Asian populations of underweight that is more common than in other regions, and conducted the Asian Cohort Alliance.
Summary analysis
.
The researchers measured the baseline height and weight of 5 cohorts and self-reported in 8 cohorts
.
The incidence of thyroid cancer is determined by linking with the local cancer registry
The study involved 538,857 men and women from 13 cohorts in China, South Korea, Japan, and Singapore
.
During the average follow-up period of 15.
It can be seen that although higher BMI is associated with an increased risk of thyroid cancer in men and women, the association between underweight and thyroid cancer risk may vary by gender and histological subtype
