While iodine deficiency is recognized as a risk factor for goiter, its association with thyroid nodules remains controversial. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the relationship between iodine intake and the development of thyroid nodules.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A systematic literature search was conducted in Medline (via PubMed), the Cochrane Library, and guideline registries (AWMF, GIN) for studies published between 2012 and 2023. Inclusion criteria focused on studies examining the association between iodine intake and thyroid nodule. Systematic review has been conducted whereas study quality was assessed using the checklists of Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP). A meta-analysis was performed for studies reporting odds ratios based on WHO-defined iodine categories.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A total of 31 studies were included. Most studies (n = 23) were cross-sectional, limiting causal conclusions. The most used method for assessing iodine intake was urinary iodine concentration (UIC), though measurement approaches varied. N = 10 studies compared median UIC between groups with and without thyroid nodules, with n = 8 reporting significant differences. However, the iodine levels in both groups often remained within the WHO-defined adequate iodine range. N = 8 studies examined odds ratios for iodine intake and thyroid nodule risk, with n = 5 identifying iodine deficiency (< 100 μg/L) as a significant risk factor. However, results for more than adequate (> 200 μg/L) and excessive iodine intake (> 300 μg/L) were inconsistent. N = 3 studies suggested a U-shaped relationship between iodine and thyroid nodule prevalence, but meta-analysis findings did not confirm this hypothesis. The pooled odds ratio for iodine deficiency was 1.24 (95% CI [1.16-1.33], I<sup>2</sup> = 0.00), while more than adequate and excessive iodine intake showed no significant association.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This systematic review and meta-analysis indicate that iodine deficiency increases moderately the risk of developing thyroid nodules, while more than adequate and excessive iodine intake does not show a consistent effect.

However, radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC) is difficult to treat with radioactive iodine because of the decreased sodium iodide symporter (NIS) activity. Patients with RAIR-DTC derive limited benefit from RAI therapy, necessitating the exploration of new treatment options. In the current study, we aimed to explore the mechanism underlying thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and to provide new targets for RAIR therapy. We established a RAIR thyroid cancer cell line which was verified by the colony formation ability under radioiodine-131 treatment at doses up to 100 µCi. As expected, higher expressions of cancer stem cell genes, SOX2, CD133, and OCT4 A were found in RAIR cells compared to non-RAIR cells. Correspondingly, the expression of iodine-handling genes such as NIS, TPO, and Pendrin were downregulated. Interestingly, we discovered that the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) activity of TERT was also upregulated in RAIR cells, evidenced by the upregulation of phosphorylated telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), BRG1 and CDK1. Moreover, miR-146b-5p, transcribed by TERT gene, was likewise upregulated. RdRP inhibitor lomibuvir treatment downregulated miR-146b-5p level in RAIR cells, resulting in the upregulation of NIS gene expression. Lomibuvir not only restored the expressions of TPO and NIS but also downregulated the elevated ALDH1A1 and CD133 in RAIR cells. Consequently, the uptake of radioiodine-131 was significantly enhanced in these RAIR cells.
