Investigations Into Obesity and the Risk of Malignant Disease in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader Investigations Into Obesity and the Risk of Malignant Disease in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules via JAMA Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery Online First To the Editor It is with great interest that we read the recent contribution from Ivanova et al, in which the authors found no association between body mass index z-score (BMIz) and the risk of malignant disease in pediatric thyroid nodules. The authors' findings contrast with our own study, in which we found BMIz to be a significant and independent predictor of pediatric thyroid cancer. We want to highlight a few differences between the studies, which may explain variance in the results. View on Web
