RESUMO

Iodine-containing formulations have been widely used to treat iodine deficiency and as antiseptics. Lecithin-bound iodine (LBI) has been approved to treat allergic diseases in Japan; however, its underlying mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we show that LBI ameliorated disease symptoms in an ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic rhinitis mouse model. LBI suppressed OVA-specific IgE production by attenuating germinal center (GC) reaction in the draining lymph nodes. The antiallergic effect of LBI is most likely attributed to increased serum iodine levels but not thyroid hormone levels. In vitro treatment of activated B cells with potassium iodide induced ferroptosis by increasing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ferrous iron in a concentration-dependent manner. Accordingly, LBI diets increased ROS levels in GC B cells of the draining lymph nodes. This study suggests that iodine directly promotes ferroptosis in activated B cells and attenuates GC reactions, leading to the alleviation of allergic symptoms.

RESUMO

An adequate maternal iodine intake during pregnancy and lactation is essential for growth and mental development in fetuses and newborns. There are limited data on perinatal iodine metabolism in mothers and infants, as well as the effect of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) antiseptics used in cesarean delivery. The urinary iodine concentration (UIC), serum iodine, thyrotropin (TSH), free thyroxine (FT4), and breast milk iodine concentration (BMIC) were measured consecutively in a total of 327 mothers and 249 term-infants in two prospective studies. The maternal median UIC was 164 µg/L in the third trimester, increased to 256 µg/L at 44 h after birth, and then decreased to 116 µg/L 1 month later. The BMIC on the 4th and 32th postpartum days was 17.6 and 13.5 µg/100 g, respectively. In neonatal infants born to the mothers unexposed to PVP-I, the median UIC was 131 µg/L in the first voiding urine and increased to 272 µg/L on day 4 and then slightly decreased to 265 µg/L on day 28 suggesting sufficient iodine reserve at birth. PVP-I antiseptics containing 1 g of iodine for skin preparation at cesarean delivery transiently increased maternal serum iodine concentration (1.9-fold), UIC (7.8-fold) at 41 h after surgery and BMIC, while it had little effect on maternal TSH, FT4, and neonatal UIC, TSH, or FT4. The iodine status of pregnant women and their infants was adequate in this population; however, the UIC in lactating mothers at one postpartum month was low enough to suggest iodine deficiency or near iodine deficiency. Further studies are necessary.

RESUMO

Selenium (Se), molybdenum (Mo), and iodine (I) are essential trace elements or nutrients and their adequate intake is essential for human health. These elements in foods are easily absorbed from the digestive tract and excreted predominantly into the urine, and their nutritional status is reflected in urinary excretion; however, information on the variability of urinary excretion is limited. To characterize the urinary Se, Mo, and I concentrations and their intra- and inter-individual coefficients of variation (CV), correlation, and seasonal change, spot urine samples were collected from 24 healthy university students, 10 males and 14 females, with the mean age of 20.6 years, for 10 consecutive days in each of the four seasons according to a defined schedule of an interval of 3 months throughout 1 year. The median Se, Mo, and I concentrations for all urine samples (n = 947) were 52.8, 127.0, and 223 µg/L, respectively. The Se and Mo intakes were highest in summer and lowest in spring, while the I intake was highest in autumn and lowest in summer. In all three elements, the intra-individual CVs were smaller than their inter-individual CVs. The log-transformed intra- and inter-individual CVs were 10.5 and 14.7% for Se, 12.3 and 15.1% for Mo, and 15.5 and 18.1% for I. There was no gender difference in Se and I concentrations, while Mo and Mo/Cr values in males were higher than those in females. Our results suggest adequate nutritional status of Se, Mo, and I with a relatively smaller variability of dietary intake except for I in this population.

RESUMO

Thyroid diseases in pregnant and lactating women may result in adverse outcomes for both mothers and infants. A reference range for thyroid function is required in different areas; however, few studies on the gestational change or reference ranges of thyrotropin (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4) concentrations for Japanese pregnant women have been reported. To establish the gestational trimester-specific reference ranges of serum TSH and FT4 concentrations, our previously published data on 481 pregnant women with the mean age of 30.8 years who provided serum samples as early as gestational week (GW) 6 was compiled by using their percentile values. The overall median urinary iodine concentration (UIC) during pregnancy was 201 µg/L suggesting adequate iodine intake. The prevalence of positive serum thyroid autoantibody (ThAb), i.e., antithyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and antithyroglobulin antibody (TgAb), was 11.4%. The reference ranges (2.5-97.5th percentile) of serum TSH and FT4 concentration calculated for samples with negative TgAb and TPOAb were 0.04-6.06 mIU/L in the first trimester (T1), 0.31-3.11 mIU/L in the second trimester (T2) and 0.48-3.93 mIU/L in the third trimester (T3) for TSH, and 1.10-1.87 ng/dL (T1), 0.76-1.56 ng/dL (T2) and 0.76-1.14 ng/dL (T3) for FT4. Compared to published data around the world in the 2017 American Thyroid Association (ATA) guideline, both the upper and lower limits of our TSH and FT4 reference ranges in the first trimester were higher than those in other countries. Further research is necessary in larger samples.

RESUMO

Iodine is an essential component of thyroid hormones and a dietary micronutrient for humans, and adequate iodine intake is necessary to maintain thyroid function. A population's iodine intake and nutritional status are assessed based on urinary iodine excretion. There are few studies on iodine nutritional status for all age groups residing in the same area in Japan. Between 2010 and 2017, a total of 769 healthy subjects aged 6.4-73 years in three sites in Yokohama City, were enrolled in the survey. The urinary iodine concentration (UIC), iodine to creatinine (Cr) ratio (UI/Cr) and estimated 24-h urinary iodine excretion (UIE) in single spot urine samples were measured, and habitual dietary iodine intake was assessed by food frequency questionnaires. The estimated 24-h UIE was calculated using individual predicted 24-h creatinine excretion by the validated equations developed for healthy Japanese children and adults which vary by age, gender and anthropometry. The median UIC for all participants was 219 µg/L, suggesting adequate iodine intake for this population. There was an increasing trend in median UI/Cr and estimated 24-h UIE by age. A significant correlation between UIC and UI/Cr (r = 0.6378), UIC and estimated 24-h UIE (r = 0.6804), and UI/Cr and estimated 24-h UIE (r = 0.5756) were observed. These estimates can be feasible, convenient and alternative methods to 24-h urine collection in order to assess iodine status in some populations such as ethnically or racially homogeneous and well-nourished people. Additional studies are required to validate these findings.

RESUMO

Iodine-based mouthwash and throat sprays contain povidone iodine (PVP-I) for disinfection. PVP-I mouthwash has been commonly used for decades in Japan and other countries and frequent and/or prolonged use of PVP-I mouthwash can induce transient hypothyroidism. To assess the amount of iodine ingested from an oral rinse, 22 healthy adult volunteers (mean age: 48.1, 29-70 years) were recruited for the study. The subjects were instructed to rinse for 15 s three times with 20 mL of commercially available PVP-I mouthwash diluted into 0.23% or pure water. This method is a standardized method of gargling recommended by the manufacturers. The total iodine in the PVP-I mouthwash was measured with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Although the 7% PVP-I mouthwash contains 7 mg of effective iodine/mL, 24.3 mg/mL of iodine was detected in the solution. The median value and ratio of the total iodine ingested were 5.0 mg (range: 2.6-10.8 mg) and 20.5% (range: 10.6-44.5%), respectively. The iodine species released from the PVP-I mouthwash are effective iodine (PVP・nHI3, I3-, and I2) and I-; however, the amount and types of iodine actually absorbed into the bloodstream are unknown. PVP-I mouthwash should be used carefully since around 5 mg of iodine could theoretically enter the body with one gargle which exceeds the tolerable upper intake level of iodine for adults. This study was prospectively registered to University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) on March 29, 2021, with the study ID of UMIN000043770.

RESUMO

The daily consumption of iodine in Japan is higher than in most countries, and there are few reports on iodine metabolism and variance of habitual iodine ingestion in an iodine-sufficient area. To elucidate the patterns of short-term urinary iodine excretion (UIE) and long-term variability of habitual iodine intake, the urinary iodine excretion process after a high dietary iodine load of 3 mg was observed in eight Japanese adults under strict supervision with complete urine collections for three days. In addition, estimated UIE and dietary iodine intake (DII) were assessed in 24 university students using repeated spot urine samples of ten consecutive days and a food frequency questionnaire in each of the four seasons. Approximately 50, 75 and 90% of orally ingested iodine was excreted into the urine at 8, 13 and 22 hours after ingestion, respectively. Almost an equal amount of ingested iodine in meals was cleared within 33.5 h after eating with a maximum excretion rate at 3-4 h. There was a high fluctuation in the UIE and DII in the university students. The intra- and inter-individual crude coefficients of variation were 123 or 294.7% for UIE, and 58.3 or 88.7% for DII, respectively, indicating a higher variance of habitual iodine intake than in other countries. The frequency of occurrence for UIE above 3 mg was every 43 days. Rapid renal clearance of iodine and high variability as well as low frequency of dietary iodine intake might prevent people from being exposed to an excess iodine intake over the long term in Japan.

RESUMO

CONTEXT: Japan has been regarded as a long-standing iodine-sufficient country without iodine fortification; however, data on nationwide iodine status are lacking. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to characterize the iodine status in Japan. METHODS: From 2014 through 2019, a nationwide school-based survey was conducted across all districts in Japan. Urinary iodine concentration (UIC), creatinine (Cr) concentration, and anthropometry were assessed in healthy school-aged children (SAC) aged 6 to 12 years. Their iodine status is regarded as generally representative of the nation's iodine status. RESULTS: A total of 32 025 children participated. The overall median UIC was 269 µg/L, which was within the World Health Organization's adequacy range. There was a regional difference in UIC values within 14 regions, and the lowest and highest median UICs were found in Tanegashima Island (209 µg/L) and Nakashibetsu, Hokkaido (1071 µg/L), respectively. The median UIC ≥ 300 µg/L was observed in 12 of 46 regions. By using estimated 24-hour urinary iodine excretion (UIE), the prevalence of SAC exceeding the upper tolerable limit of iodine for Japanese children was from 5.2% to 13.7%. The UIC values did not change with age, body surface area and body mass index percentile, whereas the Cr concentration simultaneously increased suggesting the effect of urinary creatinine on UI/Cr and estimated 24-hour UIE values. CONCLUSIONS: The iodine intake of Japanese people is adequate, but in some areas it is excessive. The incidence and prevalence of thyroid disorders associated with iodine intake should be obtained, especially in the areas where high amounts of iodine are consumed.

RESUMO

Iodine is an essential nutrient for thyroid hormone synthesis, and iodine deficiency especially in pregnant and lactating women results in serious damage to their infants. To characterize iodine nutrition throughout gestation by using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and urinary iodine concentration (UIC) measurement, and to establish appropriate gestational age-specific reference ranges for serum TSH and FT4 in thyroid autoantibody (ThAb) negative euthyroid Japanese women, a total number of 563 pregnant women including 422 subjects with negative ThAbs, 105 postpartum women and their 297 newborn infants were included in the study. Dietary iodine intake (DII) was evaluated by FFQ. Serum TSH, FT4 and UIC were sequentially determined in the three trimesters of pregnancy and at the 31st postpartum day. The overall median UICs throughout pregnancy and in the postpartum period were 224.0 and 135.0 µg/L, respectively, suggesting sufficient iodine nutrition. The median DII was 842.4 µg/day in pregnant women. The median UIC in the first trimester (215.9 µg/L) significantly decreased in the second trimester (136.0 µg/L). The prevalence of pregnant women with a UIC below 150 µg/L was 31.6% and that in lactating women with a UIC below 100 µg/L was 33.3%. The pattern of gestational change in serum TSH and FT4 was comparable to that in iodine-sufficient areas. A substantial percentage of women might be at risk for iodine deficiency if there is a restriction of iodine-rich foods. However, iodine supplementation for pregnant women must be carefully balanced against the risk of iodine excess particularly in Japan. Further research in larger samples is needed.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Iodine deficiency in pregnant and lactating women results in serious damage to their fetuses, newborns, and weaning infants. The effect of dietary iodine intake on maternal and infantile thyroid function has not been well studied in iodine-sufficient areas, and there are few data on appropriate gestational age-specific reference ranges for urinary iodine excretion during pregnancy and lactation. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to characterize the gestational change of urinary iodine excretion in Japanese women and to assess the effects of iodine status on thyroid function in mother and infant. METHODS: A total of 934 Japanese women and their 722 newborn infants were enrolled in the study. Iodine and creatinine concentrations were determined in spot urine samples in the three trimesters of pregnancy and the postpartum period at 34.0 d after delivery. Serum thyroperoxidase antibody and thyroglobulin antibody, TSH, and free T(4) were measured in each trimester, and neonatal TSH was measured on postnatal d 4. RESULTS: The overall median urinary iodine concentration (UIC) during pregnancy was 219.0 µg/liter, higher than that in postpartum women (135.0 µg/liter). The prevalence of pregnant women with low UIC less than 100 µg/liter or high UIC greater than 500 µg/liter was 16.1 and 22.2%, respectively. Urinary iodine excretion decreased from 221.0 µg/liter in the first trimester to 208.0 µg/liter in the second trimester to 193.0 µg/liter in the third trimester, and then remained at 135.0 µg/liter postpartum. [corrected]. The maternal UIC correlated positively with serum TSH during pregnancy. There was no significant difference in UIC between subjects with positive thyroid autoantibodies and those with negative antibodies. CONCLUSIONS: Iodine intake assessed by UIC in Japanese pregnant women is regarded as sufficient and not excessive according to World Health Organization criteria. Although the data are local, our results provide additional information on the reference range for UIC throughout gestation in iodine-sufficient areas.

RESUMO

Iodine deficiency disorders (IDDs) are serious global public health problems and approximately 2 billion people are at risk of IDD complications. Urine iodine and thyroid size by ultrasound in school-age children are important indicators for assessing IDD in a population. Interpretation of sonographically measured thyroid volume requires valid reference criteria from iodine-sufficient populations, and in 2003 WHO (World Health Organization)/ICCIDD (International Council for the Control of Iodine Deficiency Disorders) proposed new international reference values for thyroid volume in children aged 6-12 years. To establish a normative reference of thyroid volume and characterize the current status of iodine nutrition in Japanese schoolchildren in Tokyo, where iodine deficiency has never existed, a total of 654 subjects aged 6-12 years (317 girls and 337 boys) in three primary schools were enrolled in the study in 2002. Thyroid volume was determined by using the standardized method recommended by WHO/ICCIDD and the iodine concentration in spot urine samples and the anthropometric measurements were evaluated. Thyroid volume was positively correlated with the children's age, height, weight, or BSA. Regardless of gender the computed median and 97th percentile thyroid volumes based on age or BSA in Japanese children were generally lower than the corresponding values recently reported in iodine-sufficient areas, although these values were slightly higher (5-13%) than those in the 2003 WHO/ICCIDD international reference. The computed median value of urinary iodine concentration was 281.6 microg/L (303.7 microg/gCre) and extremely high values exceeding 1,000 microg/L were found in 16% of the subjects. The present study clearly indicated a high iodine intake in Japanese schoolchildren and also established reference values for thyroid volume that might be applicable to countries in the Far East as a population-specific local reference.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Although endemic goiter had been recognized in most parts of the country, there are few available data on iodine-deficiency disorders (IDDs) in Mongolia. This study aimed to characterize the current status of iodine deficiency in Ulaan Baatar, Mongolia's capital city. DESIGN: Cross-sectional, observational study designed and performed according to the surveillance methods for IDD prevalence recommended by WHO/UNICEF/ICCIDD. SUBJECTS: A total of 505 schoolchildren aged 9-14 years (237 girls and 268 boys) and 138 mothers and their neonatal infants were selected to clinical and biochemical examination of the thyroid in 1996 and 1999. MEASUREMENTS: The anthropometric measurements, thyroid volume determined by ultrasound, blood TSH and FT4 concentrations, urinary iodine concentration and iodine content of salt consumed in households. RESULTS: Median thyroid volumes based on age were generally higher than those in iodine-sufficient areas and comparative to those reported in mild iodine-deficiency areas. Application of the updated WHO/ICCIDD reference values in iodine-replete European schoolchildren to the Mongolian children aged 10-12 years resulted in a goiter prevalence of 43.3%. The median value of urinary iodine concentration was 152.5 micro g/l (1.20 micro mol/l) and 40.3% of children excreted iodine below 100 micro g/l. Iodized salt (> 40 ppm) was consumed in 63.1% of households and in the children using noniodized salt their urinary iodine concentration was lower than those using ionized salt. In postpartum women, median thyroid volume and urinary iodine concentration were 11.3 ml and 107 micro g/l (0.84 micro mol/l), respectively, and 46% of women excreted less than 100 micro g/l (0.79 micro mol/l) of iodine. Of their neonates, 17.8% had elevated blood TSH levels (> 5 mU/l). In a 1999 survey, the goiter prevalence and ratio of low iodine excretion in schoolchildren decreased to 29.8% and 31.3%, respectively, while median urinary iodine concentration remain unchanged (160 micro g/l; 1.26 micro mol/l). CONCLUSION: The present study clearly indicates the presence of mild iodine deficiency in Mongolia. Enlarged thyroid gland and normal iodine excretion observed in schoolchildren living in Ulaan Baatar may result from the residual effects of iodine deficiency previously and presumably still exist in the city. Slight reduction in the rate of children with enlarged thyroid and low urinary iodine excretion after the onset of national iodinization programme suggests incomplete normalization of thyroid volume in children and that the correction of iodine deficiency is now in progress in Ulaan Baatar. Further nationwide surveys together with monitoring the progress of the national programme eliminating IDD are required in suburban areas surrounding the city and also in rural areas.
