Predictive value of IGF-1/IGFBP-3 ratio for thyroid nodules in type 2 diabetic mellitus
The combination of IGF-1, IGFBP-3, and the serum IGF-1/IGFBP-3 molar ratio may have a better predictive value for TNs in T2DM patients than using any single marker alone. The duration of diabetes, age, FPG, FINS, TSH, IGF-1, IGFBP-3, and the serum IGF-1/IGFBP-3 molar ratio levels were independently associated with thyroid nodules in patients with T2DM.
