State of iodine supply in children with chronic gastroduodenitis

Objective — to study the state of iodine supply in children with chronic gastroduodenal pathology.
 Materials and methods. The included 23 gastroduodenitis: 13 girls (56 %) 10 boys (43.5 aged 8 18 years. control group consisted 11 matched age sex. All patients underwent endoscopic examination upper digestive tract. H. pylori infection was tested a rapid urease breathing test «Helik‑test». determination level single portions urine using cerium‑arsenite method Sandell‑Koltoff modified by Dunn, following calculation median.
 Results. frequency deficiency gastroduodenitis 60.9 ± 10.2 %, which significantly exceeded this parameter (8.7 8.6 %; p < 0.01). A mild degree noted 43.5 10.3 % patients, also higher than (9.09 0.05). Moderate observed only main (21.7 8.5 %). Severe not found among all children. median ioduria 81.9 mg/l, lower (183.7 mg/l; Analysis level, taking into consideration picture gastrointestinal tract lesions, showed that both (p 0.05) 0.05), more severe inflammation gastric mucosa duodenum had worst indices supply. In infected often uninfected children.
 Conclusions. pathology, significant is revealed, increases severity inflammatory changes mucous membrane presence infection. Determination pathology advisable prevent development concomitant diseases, primarily thyroid dysfunction.
