Ўзбекистон Республикасида йод етишмовчилиги: муаммонинг ҳозирги ҳолати, йодланган туз билан қамров ва сийдикдаги йод концентрациясининг аҳамияти (адабиётлар шарҳи)

Iodine deficiency disorders remain a relevant public health problem in the Republic of Uzbekistan despite the implementation of universal salt iodization programs. This review analyzes domestic and international studies, including research conducted at the Republican Specialized Scientific and Practical Medical Center of Endocrinology named after Academician Y. Kh. Turakulov, as well as data from national and regional surveys. Household coverage with iodized and adequately iodized salt, and its relationship to urinary iodine concentration, the principal biomarker of iodine intake, are discussed. The analysis demonstrates that a high reported rate of iodized salt use does not always ensure adequate iodine status, as evidenced by reduced median urinary iodine concentrations in several regions, particularly among pregnant women and children. Key determinants of persistent iodine deficiency and priority directions for improving preventive strategies are highlighted.
