In 12 malnourished Senegalese children iodine intake and excretion were measured on admission for 4 consecutive days. All subjects were in negative iodine balance, averaging -20·5 μg iodine/day. One month later, after nutritional rehabilitation, 7 children resubmitted to comparative balance study showed a strongly positive balance of +19·3 μg iodine/day. Protein-calorie malnutrition is characterized by a continuous impoverishment of the thyroid's iodine content, while clinical recovery is accompanied by a progressive restoration.
对12名营养不良的塞内加尔儿童连续4天在入院时测量碘摄入量和排泄量。所有受试者碘平衡均为负,平均每天碘摄入量为 -20.5微克。一个月后,营养康复后,再次接受对比平衡研究的7名儿童碘平衡呈强阳性,平均每天碘摄入量为 +19.3微克。蛋白质 - 热量营养不良的特征是甲状腺碘含量持续减少,而临床康复则伴随着碘含量的逐步恢复。
