Prevalence was studied of thyroid pathology under conditions of a moderate iodine deficiency in the Kolomyya District of Ivano-Frankovsk Region. Both pediatric and adult population (n = 1245) was examined, residing in the villages of Markivka and Rungury. The prevalence of diffuse goiter among children less than 14 years of age came up to 63.3% falling to 24.2% among those persons aged 56 to 75 years. In the 36 to 55 age bracket, thyroid nodularity has been found to be on the increase. The incidence rate of thyroid carcinoma in the examined population has come to be 0.1%. Children and juveniles are especially vulnerable to iodine deficiency since it is these age populations that have much higher incidence of diffuse goiter.

The iodination of electron-deficient arenes and heteroarenes is a long-standing problem in organic synthesis. Herein we describe the electrochemical iodination in nitromethane with BuNI as iodine source and supporting electrolyte under Lewis acid-free conditions in the presence of small amounts of chloride anions. The electrochemically generated reagent could be applied for the iodination of halogenated arenes, aromatic aldehydes, acids, esters, ketones, as well as nitroarenes to afford the products in good to excellent yields.

Despite advances in the field, a platform for the direct, selective C-H amination of electronically diverse (hetero)arenes, particularly electron-deficient (hetero)arenes, remains an unaddressed fundamental challenge. In addition, many (hetero)arenes present difficulty in common selective pre-functionalization reactions, such as halogenation, or metal-catalyzed borylation and silylation.

Iodine is a key micronutrient essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormone, which regulates metabolic processes and maintains overall health. Despite its importance, iodine deficiency is a global health issue, leading to disorders such as goiter, hypothyroidism, and developmental abnormalities. Biofortification of crops with iodine is a promising strategy to enhance the dietary iodine intake, providing an alternative to iodized salt.

Zhejiang Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Objectives: The relationship between iodine status and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is inconclusive. This study aimed to explore the trajectories of urinary iodine concentrations (UIC) in pregnant women before GDM diagnosis and to assess the associations between maternal UIC trajectories and the risk of developing GDM.
Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted in China.
