The silent connection: anxiety, depression, and thyroid nodules explored
Thyroid nodules are prevalent in Eastern China, particularly among females, older individuals, and those with lower education. TNs show a significant correlation with anxiety and depression disorders in females, although not in the general population. This study emphasizes the significance of examining gender differences in the link between thyroid nodules and mental health, and calls for additional research in this domain.
