Abstract:
Objective To master the iodine nutritional status of residents and to evaluate the effect of iodine nutrition improvement on residents health after the adjustment of salt iodine concentration. Methods According to the method of population proportion sampling, 30 county-level monitoring sites were selected in 2014, a primary school was selected from each county (city, district) by the method of simple random sampling and 50 students aged 8 - 10 (half males and half females) were selected in each school, B ultrasound was used to detect thyroid volume, arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometry (WS/T 107-2006) was used to detect urinary iodine, direct titration was used to detect salt iodine; At the same time, 20 pregnant women were selected from each town and urinary iodine was determined. All results were compared with the results of 2011 to evaluate the effect of iodine nutrition improvement on resident's health after the adjustment of salt iodine concentration. Results A total of 1 437 edible salt samples were tested, the median of salt iodine concentration was 24.1 mg/kg. Based on the new standard (18 - 33 mg/kg), the coverage rate of iodized salt was 95.4%(1 371/1 437), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 80.3%(1 101/1 371), the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 76.6% (1 101/1 437). A total of 1 496 urine samples of children and 630 urine samples of pregnant women were tested, the median of urinary iodine of children and pregnant women was 224.6 and 177.1 μg/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those of 2011 (274.6, 279.6μg/L), the differences were statistically significant (H=70.10, 153.50, all P<0.05). The proportion of counties which iodine nutrition of children and pregnant women in suitable range was 36.7% (11/30) and 56.7% (17/30), which were higher than those of 2011 [6.5%(2/31), 25.8%(8/31)], the differences were statistically significant (χ2 = 7.88, 5.00, all P < 0.05). Totally 1 552 children were examined thyroid in Shanxi Province, the rate of goiter was 4.4% (69/1 552). Conclusion The new standard of iodine concentration makes it possible to maintain a sustainable elimination of iodine deficiency disorders, and it can improve the iodine nutrition of children aged 8-10 years and pregnant women to more reasonable level.
