TSH – thyroid-stimulating hormone; FT3 – free triiodothyronine; FT4 – free thyroxine. Normal weight: body mass index (BMI) 18.5 to 23.9 kg/m. Overweight: BMI 24.0 to 27.9 kg/m. Obese: BMI ≥28 kg/m. The dividing point for serum thyrotropin (TSH) was 1.52 mIU/L; for FT3, it was 5.33 pmol/L; for FT4, it was 16.36 pmol/L; and for FT3/FT4, it was 0.33. Model 1: Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using logistic regression models without adjustment for variables. Model 2: OR and 95% CI were calculated using logistic regression models and adjusted for age and sex. * ** |
