متن کاملUrinary iodine excretion correlates with milk iodine content in seven British towns.

A random sample of 96 women aged 25-64 was drawn from general practitioners' lists in each town, and catch specimens of early morning urine were collected by post from 194 subjects in February and from 186 subjects in May. Median milk iodine concentration was sign...
متن کاملPerchlorate, iodine supplements, iodized salt and breast milk iodine content.
This study was undertaken to determine if increasing maternal iodine intake through single dose tablets will decrease breast milk concentrations of the iodine-uptake inhibitor, perchlorate, through competitive inhibition. We also sought to determine if the timing of supplementation influences the fraction of iodine excreted in milk versus urine and to compare the effectiveness of iodized salt a...
متن کاملStudy on the effect of high calcium intake on serum protein bound iodine and urinary excretion of iodine
Iodine deficiency remains a major health problem in the world, including some parts of Iran. It has been recognized that there is usually a close and inverse relationship between iodine in the soil and water and presence of endemic goiter. Calcium has been suggested as one of goitrogens, though the definite role, extent and mechanism particularly in human have not been studied. Serum protein-...
