Objective To understand the awareness level of iodine deficiency (ID) impairments and the attitude on edible iodized salt,and its consumption among doctors and nurses in cities,in order to provide scientific evidence for health education on iodine deficient disorders (IDD) in the future.Methods The questionnaire was self-designed,and spread through the web page of Wenjuanxing,an online server company,from May 6 to June 6,2017.At the end of the survey,a total of 481 valid questionnaires were reclaimed,in which ratio of gender was female 63.8％ (307/481),male 36.2％ (174/481).The data were analyzed by SPSS 22.0,including logistic regression analysis with backward according to the statistical significant level of P ＜ 0.05.Results Among doctors and nurses,90.4％ (435/481) knew ID impairments;72.8％ (350/481) answered intelligent disability as the most serious problem of ID;55.5％ (267/481)misunderstood that the areas in which they lived were not ID areas,although all cities surveyed were ID areas;41.0％ (197/481) of doctors and nurses misunderstood that coastal residents did not need to consume iodized salt.About the evaluation of iodine nutrition status of current population,15.6％ (75/481) of respondents judged as iodine excess.About consuming edible salt,76.3％ (367/481) selected iodized,9.6％ (46/481)non-iodized,and 14.1％ (68/481) both iodized and non-iodized.The results of logistic regression analysis showed the factors that prevents health care workers from choosing iodized salt were:"living in coastal areas","think him or her as iodine adequate","know that iodine deficiency can affect the development of children but still adhere to the consumption of non-iodized salt";the factors that promoted the choice of iodized salt for medical staff were "insist on buying iodized salt,and do not choose non-iodized salt",and 75.8％ (238/314)of them knew that intelligent disability as the most serious problem of ID.Conclusions Most doctors and nurses have high level of knowledge on ID and its control.But lack of information,as well as misunderstanding of "coastal areas iodine adequate" and worry about "excess iodine causes thyroid diseases and cancer",which would hinder the active consumption of iodized salt.Health education for them should be conducted through professional ways,stressing on the threaten of ID environment,sharing the information about national and local progress on control of IDD and iodized salt safety,and clarifying the relationship between iodine salt or iodine and thyroid cancer and nodules.

Objective To explore the role of visual oculomotor-vestibular eye balance function in the diagnosis of central and peripheral vertigo. Methods From January 2015 to June 2016,one hundred and sixty-two patients with central vertigo who were treated at Kailuan General Hospital were enrolled in the study, including 124 males and 38 females, aged ( 64. 09 ± 10. 98 ) years old; there were 166 cases of peripheral vertigo,75 males and 91 females,aged (52. 13±12. 20) years old. Spontaneous nystagmus test,gaze test,position test, saccade test, smooth visual tracking test, visual single-speed test, visual sinus test, swivel chair rotation- emergency stop test using infrared video nystagmus and static balance posture instrument,open-closed eye hard plate erect test, open-closed eye sponge soft bottom erect test balance function electrophysiological test were conducted. Results The detection rate of pathological spontaneous nystagmus and pathological gaze nystagmus was higher in the central vertigo group than that in the peripheral vertigo group (χ2=5. 674,16. 458,P<0. 05) . The occurrence rate of positional nystagmus was higher in peripheral vertigo group than that in central vertigo group (χ2=48. 896,P<0. 001). The abnormal rate of scanning test,stable visual tracking test,visual movement single speed and sinusoidal test,and static balance posture test were higher in the central vertigo group than those in the peripheral vertigo group (χ2 =137. 169, 166. 972, 150. 877, 150. 877, 27. 273, P<0. 001 ) , while the abnormal rate of rotating chair sudden stop test was higher in the central vertigo group than that in the peripheral vertigo group (χ2=51. 000,P<0. 001) . The abnormal results were mainly scanned underflush and slow scan in central vertigo group (χ2=103. 846,4. 296,P<0. 05),stable visual tracking curve (χ2=147. 389,4. 296,P<0. 05) in type III-IV,and the gain of nystagmus decreased unilaterally and bilaterally (χ2=47. 531,44. 477, 52. 529,53. 255,P<0. 001) . Anomalies of proprioception in reverse and vertical nystagmus and static balance posture were induced by rotating chair sudden stop test (χ2=11. 847, 23. 778, P<0. 001 ) , while peripheral vertigo group showed unilateral decrease of nystagmus gain induced by rotating chair sudden stop test. (χ2=79. 771, P < 0. 001 ) . Conclusion The patients with peripheral vertigo have obvious body position spontaneous vestibular response and vestibular oculomotor system dysfunction, while the patients with central vertigo mainly have visual and oculomotor system dysfunction,and may be accompanied by vestibular oculomotor system and vestibular spinal reflex dysfunction.
