Iodine Status Assessment in Campania (Italy) as Determined by Urinary Iodine Excretion

open access: yesNutrition, 2009
Mild iodine deficiency was first documented in Campania in the 1990s. We assessed the urinary iodine nutritional status of schoolchildren in Campania before the introduction of legislation for salt iodization and compared the findings with previous results to evaluate to what extent "silent" iodine prophylaxis, which accompanies socioeconomic advances,

Controversies in Urinary Iodine Determinations [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Biochemistry, 2002
Iodine deficiency (ID) is associated with increased prevalence of goiter, increased risk for neurodevelopmental disorders, and is the world's leading cause of intellectual deficits. Iodine nutritional status of a population is assessed by measurements of urinary iodine concentrations which are also used to define, indicate, survey and monitor iodine ...

Automated Measurement of Urinary Iodine

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1973
Abstract We describe a simplified, automated method for screening urinary iodine. Digestion with strong acid is avoided by dialyzing urine and then directly analyzing iodine in the dialysate with the ceric ion—arsenious acid system.

Urinary Iodine, Thyroid Function, and Thyroglobulin as Biomarkers of Iodine Status. [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2016
The accurate assessment of population iodine status is necessary to inform public health policies and clinical research on iodine nutrition, particularly the role of iodine adequacy in normal neurodevelopment. Urinary iodine concentration (UIC) directly reflects dietary iodine intake and is the most common indicator used worldwide to assess population ...

Iodine Deficiency Among Italian Children and Adolescents Assessed Through 24-Hour Urinary Iodine Excretion. [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2019
Iodine is an essential micronutrient for intellectual development in children. Information on iodine intakes based on 24-h urinary iodine excretion (UIE) is scant, because iodine status is only assessed by the measurement of urinary iodine concentration (

Urinary iodine: an update

Annales de biologie clinique, 2015
L’iode urinaire en bref : donnees physiologiques, cliniques et epidemiologiquesL’iode est un nutriment essentiel a la production des hormones par la glande thyroidienne. Il est associe a des pathologies par exces et plus frequemment a des troubles par carence communement nommes TDCI (troubles dus a la carence en iode).En 2012, l’Organisation mondiale ...

Interlaboratory variability of urinary iodine measurements

Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (CCLM), 2017
Abstract Background: The iodine status of populations is usually assessed by median urinary iodine concentrations (UIC) in population-based studies, but it is unclear to which extent UIC are comparable across different laboratories.

A Dietary Iodine Questionnaire: Correlation with Urinary Iodine and Food Diaries

Thyroid, 2007
It has been difficult to determine the sources of U.S. dietary iodine. This study was designed to validate a self-administered questionnaire about dietary iodine sources.We constructed a questionnaire to assess iodine intake in 46 healthy Boston-area adult volunteers. Questionnaire information was correlated with subjects' 24-hour food diaries.
