Abstract:
Iodine nutrition surveillance of vulnerable population was conducted in 18 cities of Henan Province in 2015. The medians and quartiles of urinary iodine concentration in women of reproductive?age (n=3 318), pregnant women (n=36 366), lactating women (n=4 153), infants<2 years of age (n=1 017), and children aged 8-10 years (n=4 806) were 202.1(124.0, 310.0), 192.4(133.6, 262.4), 168.3 (119.1, 248.3), 214.2(156.1, 272.3) and 90.0 (121.8, 285.6) μg/L, respectively. Iodine status of the vulnerable populations was generally regarded as adequate in Henan Province. But the median of urinary iodine concentration of reproductive?age women were slightly above the adequate level. The proportions above iodine adequate level were 26.7% in reproductive?age women, 29.4% in pregnant women and 22.5% in children aged 8-10 years.
