The results showed: 1) The percentage of subjects with TSH levels equal to or greater than 5 mIU/L in the neonate group was 38.9% while the percentages in the other groups were 0-3.3% (P<0.01); 2)The TSH levels of the neonates were inversely related to the urinary iodine values of their mothers (pregnant women). (r=-0. 5, P<0. 01);3)97.6% of the inhabitants in Guiyang ingested salt with less than 20mg/kg iodine. The results indicate that iodine deficiency remains a problem in Guiyang. Neonates are the only ideal population for monitoring iodine deficiency.展开更多
