The association between ICM volume and thyroid is still unclear. We sought to evaluate the long-term influence of ICM on thyroid dysfunction and disease in patients received PCI. Methods: This single-center retrospective study included consecutive coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. A covariance (ANCOVA) model was performed to evaluate the change of serum TSH, FT3 and FT4 before and one-year after the PCI procedure. Restricted quadratic splines and logistic regression were performed to evaluate the association between ICM volume and thyroid disease. Results: 2062 patients met inclusion criteria (1381 patients in the low-volume group and 681 patients in the high-volume group). The serum TSH of the high-volume group was 0.154 ± 0.078 MIU/L lower (P = 0.048), and the serum FT4 was 0.238 ± 0.092 pmol/L higher than the low-volume group (P = 0.010). Restricted cubic splines show that there were linear dose-response relationships for ICM volume and composite endpoint and hyperthyroidism. In all models, there were significant differences in composite endpoint between the two groups. (OR 1.75, 95% CI (1.05, 2.92), P = 0.032, OR 1.73, 95% CI (1.01-2.96), P = 0.032 and OR 1.83, 95% CI (1.09-3.06), P = 0.022, respectively). The positive results were also showed for hyperthyroidism in all models (OR 2.35, 95% CI (1.14-4.84), P = 0.021, OR 10.36, 95% CI (1.20-89.00), P = 0.033 and OR 2.35, 95% CI (1.13-4.87), P = 0.022, respectively). Conclusion: The present analysis gives an overview that ICM volume is associated with an increased risk of thyroid dysfunction and thyroid disease.
