Association Between Iodine Status and Prevalence of Hypothyroidism, Autoimmune Thyroiditis, and Thyroid Nodule: a Cross-Sectional Study in Shandong Province, China
This study identified associations between different UIC levels and the prevalence of thyroid disorders, with low UIC (< 100 μg/L) posing a risk for TN, and the detection rate of TN and hypothyroidism was the lowest in UIC (200-299 μg/L) group. Therefore, the acceptable UIC range of 'adequate' iodine intake among adults can be widened from 100-199 µg/L to 100-299 µg/L.PMID:38619679 | DOI:10.1007/s12011-024-04179-4
