“…However, available evidences on the risk factors of thyroid cancer were limited and heterogeneous. Tobacco use and alcohol consumption were associated with a slightly reduced risk of thyroid cancer in several cohort studies [ 24 , 25 ]. Diabetes and excess weight have been recognized as risk factors for increased the incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer [ 26 ].…”

In the past three decades, the thyroid cancer incidence has surged globally. Herein, the Taiwan National Health Insurance database was used to identify thyroid cancer patients and to estimate the prevalence and incidence of thyroid cancer during 1997-2012. The Taiwan Cancer Registry and the National Death Registry databases were crosslinked to obtain information on the histological subtypes and survival rates. Joinpoint regression analysis was used for estimating the average annual percentage changes (APCs) in prevalence, incidence, and survival. The age-standardized incidence of thyroid cancer increased from 5.66 per 100,000 person-years in 1997 to 12.30 per 100,000 person-years in 2012, with an average APC of 5.1 (6.9 in males, 4.6 in females). Thyroid cancer was more prevalent in patients with high socioeconomic status and in urban areas. Papillary carcinoma was the most abundant subtype, with a 2.9-fold increase of incident cases noted during 1998-2012 (from 80.6% to 89.8% of all cases). Among the different treatments, partial thyroidectomy increased the most (average APC, 17.3). The overall survival rates by sex and subtype remained stable over time, with 5-year survival rates of 90.2% in 1997 and 92.4% in 2010. In conclusion, 2.2- and 4.2-fold increases in the incidence and prevalence of thyroid cancer, respectively, were observed during 1997-2012 in Taiwan. The surging incidence of thyroid cancer but stable survival rates, and mainly increased in the papillary subtype, altogether imply enhanced detection of subclinical lesions. A true increase due to environmental carcinogens might also be responsible, but warrant further investigations.

“…In contrast to the increased risk of the several cancers with alcohol consumption, the risk of thyroid cancer decreases with light and moderate alcohol intake ( 8 , 18 , 46 ). Alcohol intake may have a protective effect on developing thyroid cancer by decreased levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone, the growth factor associated with thyroid cancer ( 47 ).…”

“…According to IARC, 770,000 (5.5%) of the 14.1 million new cancer cases reported worldwide in 2012 were attributable to alcohol consumption ( 4 , 7 ). In contrast, consumption of mild to moderate quantities of alcohol has an inverse association with risk of thyroid cancer ( 8 ).…”

IntroductionAlcohol consumption has been identified as a risk factor for many cancers but less attention has been paid to the fraction of those cancers that are attributable to alcohol consumption. In this study, we evaluated the incidence and population attributable fraction (PAF) of cancers associated with alcohol consumption in Nigeria.MethodsWe obtained data on incidence of cancers from two population-based cancer registries (PBCRs) in Nigeria and identified cancer sites for which there is strong evidence of an association with alcohol consumption based on the International Agency for Research on Cancer Monograph 100E. We computed the PAF for each cancer site by age and sex, using prevalence and relative risk estimates from previous studies.ResultsBetween 2012 and 2014 study period, the PBCRs reported 4,336 cancer cases of which 1,627 occurred in males, and 2,709 occurred in females. Of these, a total of 1,808 cancer cases, 339 in males and 1,469 in females, were associated with alcohol intake. The age standardized incidence rate (ASR) of alcohol associated cancers was 77.3 per 100,000. Only 4.3% (186/4,336) of all cancer cases or 10.3% (186/1,808) of alcohol associated cancers were attributable to alcohol consumption. Some 42.5% (79/186) of these cancers occurred in males while 57.5% (107/186) occurred in females. The ASR of cancers attributable to alcohol in this population was 7.2 per 100,000. The commonest cancers attributable to alcohol consumption were cancers of the oral cavity and pharynx in men and cancer of the breast in women.ConclusionOur study shows that 4.3% of incident cancers in Nigeria can be prevented by avoiding alcohol consumption. While the incidence of cancers associated with alcohol intake is high, the proportion attributable to alcohol consumption is much lower suggesting that the number of cancers that may be prevented by eliminating alcohol intake in this population is relatively low.

“…Маловивченим на сьогодні залишається асоціація акромегалії (Ам) зі ЗНЩЗ, адже єдиної точки зору на рахунок впливу підвищених рівнів IGF-1 та соматотропного гормону (СТГ), якими супроводжується акромегалія, не існує. Проведені в 2014 та 2017 р. дослідження Wolinski K. et al свідчать, що поширеність ЗНЩЗ коливалася від 0,8% до 11,8%, а ризик їхнього розвитку серед пацієнтів з АМ був у 4 рази вищим та статистично значущим, ніж в осіб без наведеної ендокринопатії [74,75].

“…Sen A. et al (2015) [79],Wang X. et al (2016) [75]), Hwang Y. et al (2016) демонструють, що в той час як легке та помірне вживання алкоголю пов'язано зі зменшенням ризику розвитку диференційованого РЩЗ, надмірна кількість (> 151 г) міцних напоїв прийнята в один прийом, навпаки, суттєво та статистично збільшує його як у чоловіків (ОR=2,21), так і у жінок (ОR=3,61). Крім того, алкозалежність протягом 31-40 років відзначалася двократним зростанням ризику диференційованих форм РЩЗ[80].…”

The morbidity of thyroid carcinoma (TC) tends to annual growth. The results of the multifactorial studies of the development of thyroid carcinogenesis testify the insufficient knowledge about the influence and significance of certain TC factors, which requires systematization in order to improve the oncoepidemic situation in the country.The objective: of this study was to conduct an analytical systematic review of literature to resume risk factors of TC in the last 10 years.Materials and methods. The generalization of literary sources, founded by key words in Google Scholar, PubMed and eLIBRARY.ru for 2007 to 2017 was carried out. We analyzed the value of the odds ratio (OR), the relative risk (RR), the hazard ratio (HR), standardized incidence ratio (SIR) and an excess relative risk (ERR) with respective confidence intervals (95% CI), as well as the reliability value (p).Results. The most significant risk factors for TC are: ionizing radiation (increases the incidence in 1,3–5 times); previous thyroid disease (associated with TC in 30–94% cases, most goiter, adenoma and AIT – in 29,7%, OR=2,12; RR=1,4), heredity (presence of TC in I degree relatives increases the chance of occurrence in > 4-times), systemic autoimmune disease (SLE increases the risk 1,8 times), diabetes (TC risk increases on 18–20%), menstrual and reproductive factors (increased risk in 1,2–2,4 times), anthropometric factors (high height – increases the risk in 1,2–1,6 times, BMI ≥30 kg/m2 – in 1,35–1,7 times, and the waist >90 cm in women – in 1,3 times); benign breast disease (TC risk is higher on 38–56%), breast cancer (TC risk increases in 1,4–2,3 times), deficiency of vitamin D (TC risk increases 2–6 times), the persistence of virus, insufficient iodine intake, lifestyle – the use of certain products and physical activity, anthropogenic and occupational factors.Conclusion. The primary care physician should take into account the current understanding of the risk ТС factors in patients, especially in high-risk groups.
