Background: Thyroid dysfunction is common in critical illness and may influence prognosis. However, the value of TSH in patients with severe diseases remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between TSH and the clinical prognosis of critically ill patients. Methods: This retrospective study identified patients who were admitted to the ICU in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV) database (version 2.2). A total of 6432 patients were divided into four groups based on TSH quartiles (Q1, 3.10 mIU/L). The clinical outcomes were defined as all-cause 7-, 30-, and 90-year mortality after ICU admission. Restricted cubic splines (RCSs) for nonlinear associations were generated to visualize the relationship between TSH levels and clinical outcomes. The survival differences among the four groups were also analyzed using Kaplan‒Meier curves and log rank tests. Univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression were further used to assess the association between TSH levels and clinical outcomes. Results: After multivariate adjustment, a U-shaped relationship was observed between TSH levels and all-cause 7-, 30-, and 90- mortality among patients with severe disease (all P |
