RESULTS OF EPIDEMIOLOGICAL DATA CONDUCTED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SOH DISTRICT OF FERGANA REGION

Despite the measures taken, a high prevalence of iodine deficiency diseases (IDD) remains in the Republic of Uzbekistan. If in 1998 the optimal concentration of iodine in the urine (100–300 µg/l) was observed in 5.6% of the population, then in 2016 this figure increased to 77%. The share of iodized salt (15.0–55 µg/g potassium iodate) was 7.6% in 1998 and increased to 81% in 2016 among the population. The prevalence of endemic goiter decreased from 70% in 1998 to 31% in 2016 among the population of Uzbekistan. Thus, there is a noticeable improvement in IDD indicators compared to previous years. However, the targets have not yet been reached. Employees of the RSNPMCE MH named after Academician Y.Kh. Turakulova, as a result of several epidemiological studies in the Fergana region in 1998 and 2004, 2010, to assess the severity of iodine deficiency using a random sampling method, found that iodine deficiency remains severe. In 1998, the prevalence of endemic goiter (EG) among children was 69.8%. After 5 years, in 2004, according to the results of epidemiological studies, it was found that the prevalence of EC among children was 59.8%. In 2010, monitoring of iodine deficiency diseases showed that the prevalence of ED in the Fergana region was 39.9%, which indicates a dynamic decrease compared to 1998 and 2004, although the severity of iodine deficiency (ID) remains severe. But among the above epidemiological studies, there were no studies in the Sokh region. The purpose of this study was - for the first time to study the prevalence of iodine deficiency diseases among the population of the Fergana region, Sokh district of the Republic of Uzbekistan. It has been established that the prevalence of iodine deficiency conditions is critical in the Sokh region.
