Abstract:
Objective: To measure the iodine nutritional status of students in Zhoushan Islands and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of iodized salt prophylaxis. Methods: A comparative study was carried out in 12 classes which were selected from Dinghai(iodized salt district) and Daishan(non-iodized salt district) of Zhoushan Islands by random sampling. Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the urinary iodine concentration and dietary iodine intake of the two groups. Spearman correlation was used to look for the correlation between urinary iodine concentration and dietary iodine intake in the two groups. Ordinal regression was used to analyze the factors that affect the urinary iodine concentration. Poisson regression was used to analyze the risk factors of goiter.Results: The urinary iodine concentration in non-iodized salt district was 129 ?g/L,which was lower than 169 ?g/L in iodized salt district(u=6.302,P=0.000) , whereas the daily iodine intake in the two groups was 105 ?g/d and 184 ?g/d respectively, the difference was also significant(u=4.710,P=0.000). The influence of sex and iodized-salt intake was significant in the final regression model (P0.05). The effect of sex and iodized-salt intake on the development of goiter was significant in the Poisson model (P
