Abstract
The study was undertaken to establish the prevalence of iodine- def cient diseases and to evaluate the severity of iodine deficiency in the Tashtypsky District, Republic of Khakassia. Four hundred and forty-seven schoolchildren were examined in 5 settlements.33.8% of the examinees were Russian; 27.8%, Shortian; and 38.4%, Khakassian. The enlargement of the thyroid was determined by palpation and ultrasound study (USS), the functional state of the thyroid (serum levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone, thyroxine, and thyroglobulin by using the standard kits) was studied, the level of iodine was measured in single urine samples. The severity of iodine deficiency was evaluated by the classification proposed by ICCIDD and WHO.
