Establishment of reference intervals of thyroid-related hormones for adults with normal liver function in Zhejiang Province by indirect method

This research successfully establishes refined RIs for thyroid-related hormones within the Chinese coastal area populations, taking into account critical demographic factors such as gender and age. These tailored RIs are anticipated to significantly enhance the diagnostic accuracy for thyroid diseases, addressing the previously noted discrepancies with manufacturer-provided data and underscoring the importance of regionally and demographically adjusted reference intervals in clinical practice.
