DiscussionThis cross-sectional study showed that after PSM, the level of TPOAb was higher in the DKD group than in the NDKD group. Similarly, we found that the TPOAb level was high in the incipient proteinuria group after PSM. Moreover, the rates of TPOAb and TgAb positivity were relatively high in the DKD group. Especially, DKD was positively associated with TPOAb-positive status in the model analysing thyroid function, after adjusting for confounding factors.
