Urinary iodine concentrations of pregnant women in Ukraine [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (CCLM), 2012
Abstract Background: Iodine requirements increase during pregnancy and previous studies have reported the inadequate iodine status of pregnant women in areas that have achieved iodine sufficiency in the general population. We examined the urinary iodine (UI) concentrations of pregnant women in Ukraine, where the iodine

Lebanese children are iodine deficient and urinary sodium and fluoride excretion are weak positive predictors of urinary iodine [PDF]

European Journal of Nutrition, 2015
To assess iodine and fluoride status among Lebanese children.A nationally representative cross-sectional study of 6- to 10-year-old schoolchildren was conducted using multistage cluster sampling. Spot urine samples were collected from 1403 children, and urinary iodine, fluoride, creatinine and sodium levels were measured. Salt samples from markets (n =

Biomonitoring Equivalents for interpretation of urinary iodine

Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2018
Iodine is an essential nutrient whose deficiency or excess exposure can cause adverse health effects. The primary sources of iodine exposure in the general population are iodized salt, dairy products, bread and sea food. Urinary iodine concentrations (UIC) have been measured by Canadian Health Measures Survey (CHMS) and US National Health and Nutrition

Urinary iodine excretion and optimal time point for sampling when estimating 24-h urinary iodine. [PDF]

Br J Nutr, 2023
AbstractIodine deficiency may cause thyroid dysfunction. The iodine intake in a population is measured by urinary iodine concentration (UIC) in spot samples or 24-h urinary iodine excretion (24UIE). 24UIE is considered the gold standard and may be estimated using an equation including UIC, urinary creatinine concentration, sex and age (e24UIE).

A study on the differences in urinary iodine and serum iodine in relation to children's iodine nutrition and lipids. [PDF]

Lipids Health Dis
The safe intake range for iodine is narrow, and abnormal nutritional status (deficiency or excess) may affect children's lipid metabolism by interfering with thyroid function. Following the widespread implementation of iodized salt in China, urinary iodine levels in children in some regions have exceeded the appropriate range.
