We performed multivariable\u2010adjusted regression analyses for healthcare utilisation (length of hospital stay, hospital charges and discharge destination) and clinical outcomes (blood transfusion; prosthetic fracture, dislocation or infection; inpatient mortality), adjusted for age, sex, race, income, comorbidity, insurance payer, elective surgery, hospital bed size, census region and teaching status.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Between 2016 and 2020, we identified 2,922,075 adults who underwent primary TKA with an underlying diagnosis of OA, of whom 447,875 (16%) had hypothyroidism.
