    The study developed and validated prediction models for assessing malignancy risk in C-TIRADS 3–4 thyroid nodules.

  • 2

    Data from 631 thyroid nodules at Yueyang People's Hospital and 193 at Hunan Cancer Hospital were analyzed.

  • 3

    Logistic regression achieved an AUC of 0.924 in internal validation and 0.929 in external validation, indicating strong predictive performance.

  • 4

    No significant differences were found between models in internal validation, but logistic regression outperformed others in external validation.

  • 5

    A nomogram was created for individualized malignancy risk assessment, demonstrating the model's clinical utility.
