Comparison of age-adjusted Tr frequency (per 100 cells) among the three groups after adjustment for sex and a history of CT examination. (A) Number of individuals in each group with a history of CT examination. (B) After adjusting for sex and a history of CT examination, comparison of age-adjusted Tr frequency showed no significant difference between the thyroid cancer and thyroid-related disease groups (p = 0.0951), between the thyroid cancer and control groups (p = 0.0657), and between the thyroid-related disease and control groups (p = 0.6354). (C) In those who had undergone CT examination, comparison of age-adjusted Tr frequency after adjustment for sex showed no significant difference between the thyroid cancer and thyroid-related disease groups (p = 0.1730), between the thyroid cancer and control groups (p = 0.0598), and between the thyroid-related disease and control groups (p = 0.3690). See note on Fig. 1 for figure description.
