Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the iodine nutritional status of key population in waterbrone high iodine areas in Shandong Province and provide scientific basis for adjustment of control strategy.Methods:In 2018, the county (city, district, county for short) shall be the unit to carry out the monitoring work, and the administrative villages shall be the unit to determine the monitoring sites in the designated high-iodine areas. According to the results of the 2017 survey on drinking water iodine for residents of Shandong Province, each monitoring county sorted the administrative villages with a median water iodine above 100 μg/L according to the water iodine value and adopted a systematic sampling method. Each county took 5 administrative villages, and if there were less than 5 administrative villages, they were all extracted (if there were administrative villages with median water iodine above 300 μg/L, ensured at least one extraction). Among the monitoring sites, water iodine, children urinary iodine, salt iodine and thyroid volume, pregnant urinary iodine, and salt iodine were investigated. The "Arsenic Cerium Catalytic Spectrophotometry Method" (WS/T 107-2006) was used to detect the water iodine and urinary iodine contents; the B-ultrasound method was used to examine the thyroid volume of children; the semi-quantitative method was used to detect the salt iodine level of residents.Results:A total of 341 water samples were collected, the median water iodine was 131.15 μg/L, ranging from 7.10 to 1 054.00 μg/L. A total of 7 555 urine samples of children were tested and the median urinary iodine of children was 289.20 μg/L. The rate of goiter of children was 3.10% (234/7 555). A total of 1 996 urine samples of pregnant women were tested and the median urinary iodine of pregnant women was 179.90 μg/L. A total of 9 551 edible salt samples were collected from children and pregnant women, including 8 238 non-iodine salt samples and the consumption rate of non-iodine salt was 86.25% (8 238/9 551).Conclusions:The pregnant women are in a suitable state of iodine nutrition, the children's urinary iodine is at a higher than suitable level in waterbrone high iodine areas in Shandong Province. Therefore, it is still necessary to strengthen the efforts to improve water and reduce iodine, and strengthen the monitoring of iodine nutrition status of key populations.
