Abstrakt: Objective: To evaluate the frequency and the clinical relevance of thyroid disease in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) patients.
Methods: A total of 305 AAV patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between October 2010 and December 2023 were analyzed. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were compared between AAV patients with and without thyroid disease. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with thyroid disease in AAV patients.
Results: Among the 305 AAV patients, 52 (17.0%) had concurrent thyroid disease. In univariate analysis, gender, coronary artery disease, renal involvement, anti-Ro/SSA antibodies, anti-Ro52 antibodies, anti-thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb), and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb) exhibited significant differences between AAV patients with and without thyroid disease (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that female gender (odds ratio (OR) = 2.423, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.241, 4.729; P = 0.009), concurrent coronary artery disease (OR = 2.998, 95% CI 1.280, 7.019; P = 0.011), and positive anti-Ro/SSA antibodies (OR = 4.697, 95% CI 1.960, 11.257; P = 0.001) were associated with thyroid disease in AAV patients.
Conclusion: AAV patients have a higher incidence of thyroid disease. Regular monitoring of thyroid function is advised for AAV patients, particularly for women, those with coronary artery disease, and those who are positive for anti-Ro/SSA antibodies. Key Points • AAV patients have a higher incidence of thyroid disease. • The potential clinical relevance of AAV patients with thyroid disease was explored. • Regular monitoring of thyroid function is advised for AAV patients.
