Association of iodine nutritional status with thyroid nodules and papillary thyroid carcinoma in women from an iodine-sufficient region in Brazil: A cross-sectional center study
In an iodine-sufficient area, UIC values ≥ 300 µg/L suggested an association with the presence of TNs and PTC. A high frequency of iodine excessive status was observed in patients with follicular subtype. However, none of the patients with presence of the BRAFV 600E mutation presented excessive iodine status.
