Early warning signs of thyroid autoantibodies seroconversion: A retrospective cohort study.

Clin Chim Acta

May 2023

Department of Laboratory Medicine, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, Shenyang, Shenyang, Liaoning, People's Republic of China. Electronic address:

Background: Serum anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (anti-TPO) and anti-thyroglobulin antibody (anti-Tg) levels are key indicators for the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, especially autoimmune thyroiditis. Before the thyroid autoantibodies turn from negative to positive, it is unknown whether any clinical indicators in the body play a warning role.

Purpose: To establish an early prediction model of seroconversion to positive thyroid autoantibodies.
