"Diseases of the thyroid gland occur more frequently in women": this statement has been used in textbooks for decades; however, is this equally true for all thyroid gland diseases and can conclusions be derived from this for a different disease relevance and prognosis in men and women? Is possibly even a sex-specific treatment needed? These questions are taken up and subsequently the epidemiological data and studies that have investigated the influence of gender on the course of thyroid gland diseases are taken into consideration. It is shown that the data situation is much more restricted than is to be expected for frequent diseases in the general population.
“甲状腺疾病在女性中更为常见”:这一说法已在教科书中沿用数十年;然而,对于所有甲状腺疾病而言,情况是否都是如此?能否据此得出男女在不同疾病相关性和预后方面的结论?甚至是否可能需要针对性别进行治疗?本文将探讨这些问题,随后会考虑流行病学数据以及研究性别对甲状腺疾病病程影响的各项研究。结果表明,与普通人群中常见疾病的预期情况相比,相关数据极为有限。
