Association between endocrine function and radiation exposure %K %X Background: To observe the relationship of change in endocrine function within radiation exposure and try to evaluate the correlated factors about thyroid function and glucose metabolism. Methods: A total of 1,784 subjects from physical examination organization for occupational health from year 2015 to 2016 were investigated. Results: The abnormal proportion of T3 and T4 of female were higher than male. Glucose level showed a significant increase in overweight (5.35±1.01) and decrease in underweight group (4.77±0.47) compared with normal group (5.05±0.85). Subjects whose exposure time longer than 3 years were likely to get higher T4 level than those less than 3 years (P Conclusions: Changes in thyroid function and glucose metabolism may appear after long time exposure to radiation. %U https://jphe.amegroups.org/article/view/3810 %V 1 %P %@ 2520-0054
