Abstract:
Objective To understand the implementation of preventive measures for iodine deficiency disorders among residents in Yunnan Province.Methods Iodized salt monitoring database and reports from states (cities) of Yunnan Province from 2011 to 2015 were collected,and the coverage rate of iodized salt,the quality of iodized salt,the rate of qualified iodized salt consumption were evaluated.Results From 2011 to 2015,at the province level,the coverage rate of iodized salt was > 98%.The rate of qualified iodized salt consumption was > 97% from 2011 to 2012,and kept at higher than 95% from 2013 to 2015.At the county level,the county (city,district) coverage rate of qualified iodized salt that ≥90% accounted for 99.22% (128/129),98.44% (126/128),91.47% (118/129),92.25% (119/129) and 99.22% (128/129).The constitute ratio of salt containing 18-33 mg/kg iodine increased year by year,from 64.07% (24 297/37 923) in 2011 to 95.15% (36 930/38 813) in 2015.Conclusions In recent years,measures for control of iodine deficiency disorders are implemented well in Yunnan Province.After production of new standard iodized salt in 2012,the rate of qualified iodized salt consumption is decreased.After the four-year transition period,the new standard iodized salt has covered over the whole province.To rectify salt market,improve quality of iodized salt and enhance monitoring quality in order to consolidate the control achievements is the focus of prevention work in the future.
