Abstract

Abstract

Objective We aimed to analyze the relationship between thyroid volume and physical development in children aged 8-10 years, and to explore the suitable correction method for thyroid volume in children. Methods During 2020-2021, 3 732 children aged 8-10 years in Fujian Province were selected using the multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method. The thyroid volume was evaluated using the B-ultrasonic method, and urinary iodine levels along with the iodine content in their diet were measured. Correction of thyroid volumes was done using height volume index (HVI), weight height volume index (WHVI), body mass volume index (BMIV), and body surface volume index (BSAV). Results There was a statistically significant association between thyroid volume and age, height, weight, BMI and BSAV after HVI correction (all P<0.001). The HVI corrected thyroid volume had the strongest correlation with the original thyroid volume (r=0.918), followed by the BSAV (r=0.884). However the BSAV was not affected by body weight, and had a better fit. Conclusion The BSAV method is recommended as a calibration method for thyroid volume in children.
