Introduction: Iodine is necessary for the synthesis of thyroid hormones which rely on sufficient levels of iodine. Iodine deficiency (ID) gives rise to various diseases. This is the first study presenting the epidemiology of ID in the Iranian population from 1992 to 2019.
Methods: This study was performed based on the analysis of global burden of disease (GBD) study data. Epidemiological indices including prevalence, incidence, and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were compared in all provinces located in Iran between 1992 and 2019.
Results: The studies' collective conclusions showed that Iran's age-standardized DALYs rate (ASDR) for iodine deficiency dropped from 14.76 to 5.92. Additionally, the ASDR for Iodine Deficiency is clearly trending lower for all provinces. The ASDR for iodine deficiency peaked in 1990 in middle-aged people of both sexes. But later in the year, the pattern changed, with males and older age groups in particular reporting a larger ASDR of iodine deficiency.
Conclusions: The findings of this study show that the burden of iodine deficiency disorder has decreased in different provinces, all age and, males, but some provinces and groups still need more regulations to reduce the burden of iodine deficiency.

The north-eastern part of Karnataka lies on the Deccan Plateau of the South Indian Peninsula, characterized by black soil. This region is known for its mineral resources, including a gold ore mine in Hatti (Raichur District), an iron ore mine in Toranagallu (Bellary District), and uranium deposits in Gogi (Yadgir District). However, the soil in this area is deficient in iodine, leading to iodine deficiency disorders such as goiter and hypothyroidism.

The recovery of radioactive iodine from nuclear waste and contaminated water sources is a critical environmental concern, which poses significant technical challenges. Herein, the study has demonstrated that tuning the electronic properties of diketopyrrolopyrrole-based donor-acceptor covalent organic frameworks (COFs) enhances iodine trapping, improves charge transport, and strengthens iodine interactions - establishing a structure-property relationship. This tuning is achieved by synthesizing COFs with the diketopyrrolopyrrole-based linker 3,6-bis(4-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)phenyl)-2,5-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione (DKP) in combination with either the electron acceptor 4,4',4″-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)trianiline (TTT-DKP) or the electron donor N,N-bis(4-aminophenyl)benzene-1,4-diamine (TAPA-DKP) linkers.

High atomic number elements-based X-ray computed tomography (CT) contrast agents offer a promising solution to address the inherent deficiencies of FDA-approved iodine contrast agents. However, they face substantial challenges in balancing imaging performance, safety, and large-scale production for clinical translation. Herein, inspired by the history of clinical gadolinium- and iodine-based contrast agents, we report a large-scale approach for synthesizing non-ionic bismuth (Bi) chelate for high-performance CT imaging in vivo.

: A healthy diet in early childhood has been shown to be one of the essential mainstays for the development of children. Few studies have been conducted on preschool canteens, despite the fact that they play a crucial role. Our study aimed to assess the dietary and nutritional quality of the menus served in Spanish Defense Ministry preschool education centers (1-3 years old) and to ascertain their compliance with dietary and nutritional recommendations.
