Table 5.

Predictors for TSH, fT4 and fT3 (n = 289).

Dependent Variables ^a	Predictor Variables	Unadjusted/Adjusted Coefficient (95% CI) ^d	p	Stand Beta	R²
TSH	Tg mg/L	6.2 (3.9−8.5)	<0.001	0.297
	fT3 pmol/L	0.09 (0.02−0.15)	0.011	0.143	0.113
fT4 ^b	Tg ^c	0.3 (0.01, 0.5)	0.043	0.120	0.014
fT3	UIC follow-up mg/L	−0.04 (−0.06, −0.02)	<0.001	−0.260	0.067

^a The dependent variables TSH and fT3 were log (2) transformed, n = 286 for TSH, n = 284 for fT4 and n = 283 for fT3; ^b Ft4 is given in pmol/L; ^c Tg as a predictor variable was log(2) transformed due to a non-linear relation; ^d TSH model adjusted for Tg and fT3. In fT4 and fT3 models, unadjusted coefficients are shown.
