Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
The epidemiology and demographics of toxic multinodular goiter is as below:[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Incidence
- The incidence of toxic multinodular goiter is estimated to be 4.8 cases per 100,000 population per year.
- The incidence of toxic multinodular goiter may be related to the degree of iodine sufficiency.
- Correction of mild iodine deficiency has beneficial effects on the incidence of hyperthyroidism.
- In 1988-89, the correction of mild iodine deficiency led to a steady decline in the total incidence to reach 44% of the control level.
- The decline in total incidence was attributed to a decrease in the incidence of toxic nodular goiter.
Prevalence
- The prevalence of hyperthyroidism is estimated to be 2000 cases per 100,000 population.
- The prevalence of toxic multinodular goiter is 100 cases per 100,000 population and accounts for 5% of all patients with hyperthyroidism.
- The prevalence of toxic adenomas in United States was estimated to be 1.6% of 2846 thyrotoxic patients in a research done in Cleveland. In other words, the prevalence of toxic adenomas in United States is 1580 cases per 100,000 population.
- The prevalence of toxic thyroid nodules was significantly higher in an iodine-deficient population when compared with an iodine-sufficient population.
- In iodine deficient areas, such as some areas of Italy (Pescopagano, in southern Italy), nodular goiter is present in 25-33% of the population.
Age
- Toxic multinodular goiter commonly affects individuals older than 60 years of age.
- Hyperthyroidism associated with an autonomous nodule occurred in 57% of patients aged more than 60 years, whereas 13% of those younger than 60 years were hyperthyroid.
- Toxic multinodular goiter frequency increases with age.
Gender
- Females are more commonly affected by toxic multinodular goiter than men.
- The female to male ratio is 4:1 for toxic multinodular goiter.
Region
- Toxic multinodular goiter is a common disease that tends to affect African nations.
- In developed nations, European countries tend to have a higher prevalence of toxic multinodular goiter as compared to the United States.
- Toxic multinodular goiter is less common in United States. This can be attributed to iodination of table salt.
- Moreover in United States the intake of iodised salt (200 to 600 μg/day) is almost double in quantity as compared to European nations(25 to 100 μg/day ).
