AIM
To determine the population access to salt/iodized salt during and after the armed conflict in south Sudan and to illustrate geographical variations in population consumption of iodized salt in south Sudan after the armed conflict.
METHODS
The sources of data for the conflict period were the 2004 Toward a Baseline: Best Estimates of Social Indicators for Southern Sudan study report and the 2000 Multiple Indicators Cluster Survey, and for the post-conflict period the 2005 Sudan Household Health Survey (SHHS) data set.
RESULTS
After peace agreement, population access to salt increased by 6.8% (Z=5.488, P<0.001) and the consumption of iodized salt increased by 32.9% (Z=24.668, P<0.001). More than 73% of families were using iodized salt but geographical differences existed between states.
CONCLUSION
Peace had positive impact on population access to iodized salt in south Sudan. Public health authorities in south Sudan need to establish quality monitoring and surveillance systems to track progress toward Universal Salt Iodization goal defined by the World Health Organization, United Nations Children's Fund, and the International Council for the Control of Iodine Deficiency Disorders.
目的
确定苏丹南部武装冲突期间及冲突后民众获取食盐/加碘盐的情况，并说明武装冲突后苏丹南部民众食用加碘盐的地理差异。
方法
冲突期间的数据来源是《2004年迈向基线：苏丹南部社会指标最佳估计》研究报告和《2000年多指标类集调查》，冲突后时期的数据来源是《2005年苏丹家庭健康调查》数据集。
结果
和平协议达成后，民众获取食盐的比例增加了6.8%（Z=5.488，P<0.001），加碘盐的食用量增加了32.9%（Z=24.668，P<0.001）。超过73%的家庭使用加碘盐，但各州之间存在地理差异。
结论
和平对苏丹南部民众获取加碘盐产生了积极影响。苏丹南部的公共卫生当局需要建立质量监测和监督系统，以跟踪实现世界卫生组织、联合国儿童基金会和国际碘缺乏病控制理事会确定的全民食盐加碘目标的进展情况。
