Abstract:
Objective:To master the situation of iodine deficiency disorders and iodine nutrition status of the population in Hebei Province, and to evaluate the effect of salt iodization intervention.Methods:According to "National Surveillance Program on iodine deficiency disorders", in 2018, iodine deficiency disorders surveillance was carried out in 162 counties (cities, districts). Each monitoring county (city, district) was divided into 5 sampling areas according to its locations of east, west, south, north and middle. One township/street was selected in each area, 1 primary school was selected in each township/street, and 40 non-boarding students aged 8 - 10 were selected from each primary school. In each monitoring county, 20 pregnant women were selected from each of the 5 townships/streets. Both children and pregnant women were collected urine and salt samples for detection of iodine levels. The thyroid volume of students was detected by B-ultrasound.Results:A total of 31 883 urine samples were collected from children aged 8 - 10 years in 162 counties (cities, districts), with the median urinary iodine of 193.13 μg/L. There was one county (cities, districts) with a median urinary iodine below 100 μg/L, and the median urinary iodine in 150 counties (cities, districts) was 100 - 299 μg/L. A total of 8 941 children aged 8 - 10 years were tested thyroid by B-ultrasound. A total of 232 cases of goiter were detected, and the rate of goiter was 2.59% (232/ 8 941). A total of 15 569 urine samples of pregnant women were tested, the median urinary iodine was 164.86 μg/L, and the number of counties (cities, districts) with a median urinary iodine below 150 μg/L was 67. A total of 47 455 salt samples were tested across the province, including 31 883 salt samples from children's homes and 15 572 salt samples from pregnant women's homes. The iodized salt coverage rate was 88.79%, and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 81.69%.Conclusions:The iodized salt coverage rate and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt in Hebei Province are all below 90%. The iodine nutrition of children aged 8 - 10 years is at an appropriate level. The thyroid enlargement rate of children is below the national standard, and the iodine nutrition of pregnant women is generally at an appropriate level. But pregnant women in 67 counties (cities, districts) have a risk of iodine deficiency.
