OBJECTIVES
To assess the current iodine status among school children in Terai region of Nepal.
METHODS
A cross sectional study was conducted in 2012 among the school children aged 6-12y in three Terai districts (Siraha, Saptari and Jhapa) of eastern Nepal. A total of 1105 casual urine samples were collected from children of different schools of above districts. Urinary iodine excretion was estimated using ammonium persulphate digestion method.
RESULTS
The median urinary iodine excretion in school children was 226.33μg/L (234.16μg/L, 229.25μg/L and 210.67μg/L in Siraha, Saptari and Jhapa districts respectively). About 12.7% (n = 140) children were found to be iodine deficient and 34.2% (n = 378) children had excessive iodine nutrition.
CONCLUSIONS
There was good improvement in iodine nutrition among children in Terai region, with a large part of population showing excessive iodine nutrition.
目的
评估尼泊尔特莱地区学童目前的碘营养状况。
方法
2012年在尼泊尔东部三个特莱地区（西拉哈、萨普塔里和贾帕）对6至12岁的学童进行了一项横断面研究。从上述地区不同学校的儿童中总共收集了1105份随意尿样。采用过硫酸铵消化法估算尿碘排泄量。
结果
学童尿碘排泄中位数为226.33μg/L（西拉哈、萨普塔里和贾帕地区分别为234.16μg/L、229.25μg/L和210.67μg/L）。约12.7%（n = 140）的儿童被发现碘缺乏，34.2%（n = 378）的儿童碘营养过剩。
结论
特莱地区儿童的碘营养状况有了良好改善，大部分人群碘营养过剩。
