Iodine-deficiency disorders

Lancet, The, 2008
2 billion individuals worldwide have insufficient iodine intake, with those in south Asia and sub-Saharan Africa particularly affected. Iodine deficiency has many adverse effects on growth and development. These effects are due to inadequate production of thyroid hormone and are termed iodine-deficiency disorders.

Iodine deficiency disorders

2011
Abstract Iodine (atomic weight 126.9 g/mol) is an essential component of the hormones produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones, and therefore iodine, are essential for mammalian life (1). The native iodine content of most foods and beverages is low, and the most commonly consumed foods provide 3–80 μg/serving (1).

Iodine deficiency and thyroid disorders

The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology, 2015
Iodine deficiency early in life impairs cognition and growth, but iodine status is also a key determinant of thyroid disorders in adults. Severe iodine deficiency causes goitre and hypothyroidism because, despite an increase in thyroid activity to maximise iodine uptake and recycling in this setting, iodine concentrations are still too low to enable ...

Iodine deficiency disorders in Bangladesh

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1996
An extensive iodine deficiency disorders survey was conducted in Bangladesh in 1993 to assess the latest iodine nutriture status of the country.

Thyroid Disorders in Mild Iodine Deficiency

Thyroid, 2000
Comparative epidemiologic studies in areas with low and high iodine intake and controlled studies of iodine supplementation have demonstrated that the major consequence of mild-to-moderate iodine deficiency for the health of the population is an extraordinarily high occurrence of hyperthyroidism in elderly subjects, especially women, with risk of ...

Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD)

2019
Iodine deficiency can impair human health severely and cause iodine deficiency disorders (IDD), including endemic goiter, endemic cretinism, endemic subclinical cretinism, and so on. From 2838 to 2698 BC, China had made effort to control endemic goiter.

The Iodine Deficiency Disorders

1993
The term “iodine deficiency disorders” (IDD) is now used to denote all the effects of iodine deficiency on growth and development, particularly brain development, that can be prevented by correction of iodine deficiency . In the past, the term “goitre” has been used for many years to describe the effects of iodine deficiency.

The Disorders Induced by Iodine Deficiency

Thyroid, 1994
This paper reviews present knowledge on the etiology, pathophysiology, complications, prevention, and therapy of the disorders induced by iodine deficiency. The recommended dietary allowances of iodine are 100 micrograms/day for adults and adolescents, 60-100 micrograms/day for children aged 1 to 10 years, and 35-40 micrograms/day in infants aged less ...
