Abstract:
Objective:To learn about the current status of iodine nutrition of key populations in Shiyan City, Hubei Province, and to provide basis for guiding key populations to supplement iodine scientifically.Methods:According to the requirements of the "National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Surveillance Program (2016 Edition)", pregnant women and school-age children aged 8 - 10 (age balanced, half male and half female) in 8 counties (cities, districts) under the jurisdiction of Shiyan City, Hubei Province were selected from 2017 to 2020. Their household edible salt samples and urine samples were collected to detect salt iodine and urinary iodine contents, respectively. At the same time, the thyroid gland of children was examined by B-ultrasonic and the goiter rate was calculated.Results:In total, 3 198 household edible salt samples of pregnant women were tested, the median salt iodine was 23.7 mg/kg, the coverage rate of iodized salt was 99.9% (3 196/3 198), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 96.0% (3 068/3 196), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 95.9% (3 068/3 198). Totally 2 898 urine samples of pregnant women were tested, and the median urinary iodine was 198.2 μg/L. In total, 6 363 household edible salt samples of children were tested, the median salt iodine was 23.8 mg/kg, the coverage rate of iodized salt was 99.8% (6 352/6 363), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 95.5% (6 067/6 352), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 95.3% (6 067/6 363). Totally 5 764 urine samples of children were tested, and the median urinary iodine was 259.8 μg/L. Totally 2 188 children were examined, and the goiter rate was 0.4% (9/2 188).Conclusions:From 2017 to 2020, the coverage rates of iodized salt (≥95%), consumption rates of qualified iodized salt ( > 90%) of key populations and the goiter rate of children ( < 5%) in Shiyan City of Hubei Province are in line with the national standards for eliminating iodine deficiency disorders. Pregnant women are generally at an appropriate level of iodine (150 - 249 μg/L) and children are generally at the super appropriate level of iodine (200 - 299 μg/L). It is necessary to continue to strengthen the monitoring of iodine nutrition in key populations and implement the strategy of "adjusting measures to local conditions, classified guidance and scientific iodine supplementation".
