Anti-TPO antibody positivity was markedly higher in the SCH group (46.3%) than in the euthyroid group (13.9%), and this association was highly significant (p<0.001).
Anti-TPO antibody positivity was markedly higher in the SCH group (46.3%) than in the euthyroid group (13.9%), and this association was highly significant (p<0.001).
Although this difference was statistically significant in unadjusted analysis (p=0.049), it approached but did not achieve significance in the adjusted model (adjusted OR: 1.76, 95% CI: 0.97-3.19, p=0.064).
Although shift work did not reach statistical significance in adjusted models, its biological relevance remains well supported by existing endocrine literature.
