Objective We aimed to evaluate goiter prevalence and iodine nutritional status in areas with high levels of water iodine;to monitor the prevalence of iodine deficiency disorders(IDD)in areas at high risk of IDD;and to compare the prevalence of goiter and urine iodine(UI)concentrations between children living in the two areas.Methods Based on surveillance from 2012-2014,we analyzed the concentration of UI and prevalence of goiter in 8-10-year-old children from 12 high-risk IDD provinces,and from 8 provinces and municipalities with excessive water iodine.We calculated goiter prevalence for each UI level according to World Health Organization(WHO)standards and constructed predictive prevalence curves.Results The goiter prevalence and median UI of children from areas with high water iodine were not optimal,being above the WHO standards(5%and 100-199μg/L,respectively),whereas those in high-risk areas fell within the standard.UI and goiter prevalence exhibited a U-shaped relationship in high-risk endemic areas and a parabolic relationship in areas of iodine excess.Conclusion Iodine surplus in high-iodine areas leads to high goiter prevalence and UI.However,in high-risk areas,UI was optimal and goiter prevalence met the national criteria for IDD elimination.

Methods Based on surveillance from 2012-2014, we analyzed the concentration of UI and prevalence of goiter in 8-10-year-old children from 12 high-risk IDD provinces, and from 8 provinces and municipalities with excessive water iodine. We calculated goiter prevalence for each UI level according to World Health Organization (WHO) standards and constructed predictive prevalence curves. Results The goiter prevalence and median UI of children from areas with high water iodine were not optimal, being above the WHO standards (5% and 100-199 μg / L, respectively), those those high-risk areas fell within the standard. UI and goiter prevalence exhibited a U-shaped relationship in hig h-risk endemic areas and a parabolic relationship in areas of iodine excess. Confound Iodine surplus in high-iodine areas leads to high goiter prevalence and UI. Despite, in high-risk areas, UI was optimal and goiter prevalence met the national criteria for IDD elimination.
