| Abstract | The authors have used data from a random sample of school children in order to assess iodine status (through urine sample), thyroglobulin (through dried blood spots) and goiter through palpation by an expert endocrinologist. In addition, iodine content of salt samples at local selling points was assessed. The authors showed that iodine deficiency among children in this area remains as a health issue, as well as that salt is not adequately iodised in this area. |
