Alterations of sleep quality and circadian rhythm genes expression in elderly thyroid nodule patients and risks associated with thyroid malignancy

Abstract To study the alterations of sleep quality and circadian rhythm genes expressions upon elderly thyroid nodule patients, the risk factors associated with thyroid malignancies, and the potential relationship involved. The elderly people enrolled in our study were divided into three groups acco...
