Endemic goiter involves about 15% of the population of Vietnam. To define the role of various factors which contribute to endemic goiter in Vietnam, we surveyed 935 people in Vancon, a lowland commune with goiter appearing only in the past decade, and 619 people in Dich Giao, a highland commune with endemic goiter treated erratically with iodized salt.

Endemic goiter and endemic thyroid disorders
World Journal of Surgery, 1991AbstractThe primary role of iodine deficiency in goitrogenesis and the prevention and treatment of endemic goiter by iodine supplementation is firmly established. Unfortunately, implementation of iodine prophylaxis programs has met with considerable technical and socioeconomic difficulties.

This paper is the result of an analysis of a publication by Munoz, Perez, and Scrimshaw in this Journal and of another by the same authors. The former lists the findings in 22 entire departments in Guatemala; the latter, the observations in each of the 105 localities in which the survey was conducted.

The most prominent clinical manifestation of iodine deficiency is goiter, a disease which has widespread prevalence throughout the Pacific area. In the countries to the east from Alaska to the southern tip of Chile, in those areas which border the western shores, as well as in Australia, New Zealand and the many islands of the Pacific, goiter has been ...

[Endemic goiter in Nepal. Comparisons with endemic goiter in the Piedmont].
Minerva medica, 1977Comparison of certain features of endemic goitre in the Khumbu district of Nepal and Piedmont is reported. Cases in the younger generations were observed in both areas. In Khumbu, the incidence of goitre in schoolchildren was 75% and cases were even noted in children who had been receiving iodine prophylactic management (injections of iodised oil: 500 ...

Electroencephalogram in Juvenile Endemic Goiter and in Acute Goiter
Confinia Neurologica, 2007EEG were taken in 27 cases of juvenile endemic goiter and in 5 cases of acute goiter in endemic areas. These conditions, which may be equated nosologically, are virtually always marked by bioelectric changes, which continue even after the thyroid swelling has subsided.

Pathophysiology of Himalayan endemic goiter
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1974Goiter prevalence and iodine metabolism were studied in areas of endemic goiter in the Himalayas in India and Nepal. Similar studies were also made in Ceylon. The results are compatible with the hypothesis that severe environmental deficiency of iodide is the primary factor responsible for endemic goiter in these areas.
