Abstract:
Objective To monitor the level of urinary iodine in pregnant women in Xiaogan area,to understand the iodine nutri-tional status of pregnant women during pregnancy,and to provide theoretical basis for scientific guidance of iodine intake in preg-nant women.Methods The urine iodine levels of 2 956 pregnant women in Xiaogan Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University of Sci-ence and Technology from March 2016 to May 2017 were examined and analyzed.Results In Xiaogan area,the median concentra-tions of urinary iodine in the early,middle and late stages of pregnant women were 145.73 μg/L,176.88 μg/L and 170.37 μg/L. 996 pregnant women were with urinary iodine concentration of over 150 μg/L,accounting for 33.69%;1372 pregnant women were with urinary iodine concentration of 150-249 μg/L,accounting for 46.41%;556 pregnant women were with urinary iodine concen-tration of 250-499 μg/L,accounting for 18.81%;32 pregnant women were with urinary iodine concentration of over 500 μg/L,ac-counting for 1.08%.The incidence rates of iodine deficiency in pregnant women at early,middle and late stage were 42.86%, 32.95% and 40.00%,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence rate of iodine deficiency was 32.33%in pregnant women with age ≤ 30 years old,the incidence of iodine deficiency was 36.89% in pregnant women with age > 30 years old,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion At this stage,in Xiaogan,there are no overall maternal i-odine deficiency,but there was iodine malnutrition in pregnant women in early pregnancy,and some pregnant women lack awareness of iodine.
