2. Handwritten report on the prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency diseases

It can introduce the dangers of iodine deficiency and the dangers for different age groups:

Iodine deficiency diseases A general term for a group of diseases manifested by iodine malnutrition in the body due to iodine deficiency in the natural environment. It includes endemic goiter (referred to as goiter), endemic cretinism (referred to as goiter), endemic subclinical cretinism (referred to as goiter), fetal miscarriage, premature birth, stillbirth, congenital malformations, etc.

Cretinism refers to a disease characterized by mental retardation and accompanied by psychiatric syndrome or hypothyroidism. It is caused by severe iodine deficiency during fetal period that causes irreversible damage to brain development.

The main danger of neonatal iodine deficiency is congenital hypothyroidism (referred to as congenital hypothyroidism).

Infants and young children are in the second critical period of brain development and, like fetuses, are extremely sensitive to iodine deficiency. If severe iodine deficiency in the fetus continues into infancy, it will develop into a typical patient with cretinism.

Children and adolescents are more sensitive to iodine deficiency, which can affect intellectual and physical development, causing motor, visual, and hearing impairments. The most prominent manifestation is thyroid enlargement.

The most obvious effect of iodine deficiency in adults is goiter. The characteristic of goiter in adults is the lack of typical clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism. There are generally no obvious symptoms except neck swelling. It will only appear when the goiter develops to a certain extent or compresses the trachea, esophagus and peripheral nerves. Symptoms include difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, or hoarseness.

3. How to prevent iodine deficiency disease

The fundamental measure for the prevention and control of iodine deficiency disease is iodine supplementation. The daily supply of iodine required by normal adults is about 150 micrograms, and the body's storage capacity for iodine is limited. Since iodine deficiency in the natural environment exists for a long time, iodine supplementation should follow the principles of long-term, trace, daily and daily life.

The main measures for iodine supplementation include iodized salt, iodine preparations and iodine-rich foods. The main measure to prevent and control iodine deficiency diseases in my country is to popularize iodized salt. In addition, lipiodized oil or iodine tablets can be used as alternative or auxiliary measures in areas with inconvenient transportation, scattered residence, severe impact of non-iodized salt, and salt iodization measures that have not yet been effectively implemented.

The main targets of the application are newly married women of childbearing age, pregnant women, lactating women, infants and children. You can also supplement iodine by taking iodine-containing health products and eating iodine-rich foods such as kelp, seaweed, and shellfish.

Salt is the daily requirement of the human body and conforms to the principles of long-term, trace, daily and convenient. After nearly a hundred years of human exploration and practice, it has been proven that salt iodization is safe, effective, simple, easy to implement, cheap, and can be consumed for a long time, making it the best way to supplement iodine.

Extended information

Purchase and use iodized salt correctly

(1) Iodized salt should be purchased through formal channels. Iodized salt must have packaging and an iodized salt mark. Be sure to identify them clearly when purchasing.

(2) The purchased iodized salt should be properly stored. The iodized salt should be placed in a cool, dry place to avoid direct sunlight and moisture absorption. It should be stored away from the stove to avoid the influence of high temperature. Residents can purchase iodized salt in small packages and should not store it for too long, so they can buy it as they go.

(3) In order to prevent the loss of iodine, it is not advisable to add iodized salt too early when cooking. It is advisable to add it when the food is almost cooked. Avoid using iodized salt to fry the pot, stewing or boiling for a long time to prevent the iodine from being heated. Invalid and lose the effect of iodine supplementation.

Health News Network - Shandong Provincial Institute of Endemic Diseases popularizes knowledge on iodine deficiency diseases and questions and answers

4. Information and layout of the handwritten newspaper on iodine deficiency disease prevention knowledge

"How much do you know about iodine?" - Knowledge about iodine 1. Iodine exists in soil and water in nature and is an indispensable nutrient for the human body.

Iodine is an essential chemical nutrient for the human body. Iodine deficiency in the human body can cause iodine deficiency disease. Iodine deficiency disease is the most widespread endemic disease in the world and affects the largest number of people.

Except for Iceland, almost all other countries in the world have varying degrees of popularity. Our country is one of the countries with serious iodine deficiency in the world. Iodine deficiency disease is prevalent in a wide range, with a large number of patients and severe illness.

Qualified iodized salt contains the iodine we need every day. We must eat a certain amount of iodized salt every day to maintain normal physical and intellectual development, and to ensure normal study, work, and Labor and life are as important as we must eat every day. If pregnant women (pregnant mothers) do not eat iodized salt, their babies will be small, stupid, and deaf; if students do not eat iodized salt, they will not grow taller, will not learn well, and will get goiter (thick neck disease).

Over the years, the prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency diseases in our country has received great attention from the Party and the Communist Party of China. Since the implementation of universal salt iodization measures in 1995, the iodine nutritional status of the population has been greatly improved. The incidence of deficiency diseases has dropped significantly. All 22 counties in Ningxia are iodine-deficient areas, of which 9 counties in the mountainous and central arid zones of Yuanzhou, Xiji, Pengyang, Jingyuan, Longde, Haiyuan, Yanchi, Tongxin and Hongsibao are iodine-deficient. key areas for disease prevention and control.

What circumstances can cause iodine deficiency? (1) Iodine-deficient areas. (2) If a child does not get enough iodine to grow, it will cause iodine deficiency.

What diseases can be caused by iodine deficiency? (1) Iodine deficiency can cause endemic goiter, rickets, etc. (2) Children with iodine deficiency will inhibit their growth and development.

(3) Iodine deficiency during fetal and infancy will affect the growth and development of brain nerves, bones, and muscles. What are the dangers of iodine deficiency? Iodine deficiency can cause the well-known goiter (commonly known as big neck disease, thick neck root, gall, etc.), affect the normal physiological functions of the human body, and can also cause miscarriage, premature birth, stillbirth, congenital malformations, deafness and muteness, and more importantly Iodine deficiency during the embryonic period and in infants and young children can cause brain development disorders.

Thyroid hormone is needed for human brain development, especially from the 3 months of fetal life to more than 2 years old after birth. Iodine is an important raw material for the production of thyroid hormone.

If the supply of iodine in the diet of pregnant women and infants is insufficient, the intellectual development of the fetus and infants will be affected. In severe cases, cretinism manifests as "stupid, small, deaf, mute, paralyzed", extremely low intelligence, and even unable to take care of oneself, becoming a burden to the family and society.

Mild damage to brain development manifests as subclinical cretinism or mild mental retardation. On the surface, it is the same as normal people, but the IQ is lower than normal, academic performance is poor, and the child cannot Master more complex labor skills.

Therefore, the harm of iodine deficiency in iodine-deficient areas will seriously affect the development of social economy and culture. In summary, iodine deficiency has great harm to health, and the biggest harm is affecting intellectual development.

Therefore, women of childbearing age, pregnant women, lactating women, infants and school-age children are the key targets for the prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency diseases. "Know iodine and know iodine" - Key points on how to prevent iodine deficiency 1. You must insist on eating iodized salt.

2. Eat iodine-containing foods: kelp, seaweed, shellfish, etc. 3. Areas with severe iodine deficiency should take iodine pills or inject iodine.

Detailed explanation of how to prevent and treat iodine deficiency. Water and soil in most areas of the world are deficient in iodine. Food, vegetables, poultry, and livestock produced in iodine-deficient areas are deficient in iodine. Therefore, residents living in these areas Long-term iodine supplementation is required. Periodic iodine deficiency disease is prevalent in all countries and regions in the world except Iceland, and various provinces and cities in my country have varying degrees of iodine nutritional deficiencies.

There are many ways to supplement iodine. Experience from various countries has proven that the safest, most effective, simple and easy to adhere to method is to consume iodized salt for a long time. Based on the current average daily consumption of 5 to 15 grams per person in my country, the iodine obtained from iodized salt every day can meet the needs of the human body, and there is no need to use other iodine-supplementing foods.

When buying iodized salt, be sure to recognize the iodized salt mark on the packaging bag. Do not buy non-iodized salt from vendors or other sources, and do not consume local salt or private salt. 1. Everyone should use iodized salt.

Universal use of iodized salt can effectively prevent iodine deficiency diseases. This is a safe, effective, convenient and cheap method of iodine supplementation recognized worldwide. However, after purchasing iodized salt, you should pay attention to sealing it, avoiding light, wind, heat and long-term storage to prevent the loss of iodine, and insist on using it all year round.

2. Strengthen iodine supplementation. Women during pregnancy, lactation, infants, children, and teenagers have a relatively large demand for iodine. They should take lipiodol pills under the guidance of a doctor on the basis of long-term use of iodized salt.

3. Eat more iodine-rich foods in daily life, such as kelp, fish, shrimp and seaweed. How to actively publicize knowledge on the prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disease. Iodine deficiency disease is an ancient malnutrition disease. Most people have insufficient understanding of the prevention and treatment of this disease. The country has designated May 15th every year as the Iodine Deficiency Disease Prevention and Treatment Publicity Day. Through Health education activities provide everyone with scientific knowledge on preventing and treating iodine deficiency.

Everyone has the responsibility to promote knowledge about iodine deficiency diseases, especially staff in the health department, salt industry department, education department and administrative officials at all levels. School teachers and students should tell parents about the prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency, disseminate it to the society, and urge parents to buy iodized salt, so that the knowledge about preventing and treating iodine deficiency diseases becomes a household name and everyone knows it, so that they can insist on consuming iodized salt for a long time and achieve continuous elimination of iodine. Lack of disease goals.

What are the core messages for publicity and education on iodine deficiency diseases? (1) Key points of publicity and education on iodine deficiency diseases 1. The harm of iodine deficiency is common and long-term in our country. 2. Iodine deficiency in the human body not only affects growth and development, but more importantly, affects intellectual development.

3. Iodine deficiency can be prevented. The simplest, safest and most effective measure is to consume iodized salt for a long time. 4. The production, sale and sale of non-iodized salt violates national laws.

(2) Core information of publicity and education on iodine deficiency diseases Iodine is an important raw material for the synthesis of thyroxine in the human body. It is closely related to human growth, development and metabolism, and especially plays a decisive role in brain development. The soil and water sources in iodine-deficient areas contain very little iodine, and the grains, vegetables, fruits, meat and eggs produced are also deficient in iodine. Residents who have lived in iodine-deficient areas for a long time will suffer from a series of iodine deficiency diseases due to iodine deficiency.

Because "iodine deficiency can affect intelligence, growth and development."

5. Composition on iodine deficiency knowledge

How to prevent iodine deficiency disease

Iodine deficiency disease is caused by iodine deficiency, so its prevention and treatment should be People in the ward receive iodine supplementation. The main iodine supplementation measures are:

(1) Iodized salt: It is suitable for long-term iodine supplementation by the whole people. It is characterized by being cheap and easy to obtain, easy to use, safe and reliable, easy to promote and easy to adhere to for a long time, and is very effective. method. Iodized salt is the most important and fundamental means to prevent and treat iodine deficiency diseases all over the world and in China. ,

(2) Lipiodol: divided into injection and oral administration. Injections are used as injections, usually intramuscularly. The adult dose is 1 ml each time (containing 475 mg of iodine). It is usually injected once and is valid for 2 to 3 years. The injection can then be repeated.

The other is lipiodol pills, which are oral lipiodol pills (or capsules). The dose is 1.4 times the injection dose, that is, an adult takes 665 mg at a time, and the validity period is about one year. Lipiodol should not be used as a long-term iodine supplement, but can only be used as an auxiliary measure to promote iodized salt to ensure normal intellectual and physical development of fetuses and children. Generally speaking, the iodine supplementation effect of injected lipiodol is more reliable than that of oral lipiodol pills, but the public is more willing to accept the oral method.

(3) Iodized water: Water is a necessity in daily life. It is an ideal way to supplement iodine in addition to salt. The obvious disadvantage of water is that it is widely distributed and it is difficult to concentrate iodization. However, in some special circumstances, iodized water can also be an effective measure to correct iodine deficiency. Methods for adding iodine to water include: ① Add high-concentration potassium iodide or potassium iodate dropwise to the drinking water in the container. ②Put iodine-containing resin tubes or iodine bricks (collectively referred to as iodine sustained-release devices) into the well water, allowing the potassium iodide in the tubes to slowly seep into the water through an appropriate device. This device can be used for one year. ③ Use iodine to purify water: Use iodine at a concentration of 500 mg/L to disinfect water. While eliminating bacterial contamination, it can also correct various iodine deficiencies, killing two birds with one stone. Even excessive intake of iodine does not cause any harm to the human body. Of course, the drawback of this method is that the iodine used must be pure iodine, potassium iodide or potassium iodate is not effective. ④Scientists have used the method of adding iodine to crop irrigation water in Xinjiang, my country, and achieved certain results.

(4) Iodine tea: Residents in minority areas, such as *** areas, have the habit of drinking tea every day in their daily lives. Putting iodide in tea bricks will also achieve effective supplementation. Iodine effect.

(5) Other iodine supplementation methods: Theoretically, most foods in daily life can be used to add iodine. Iodine can be added to bread, candy and sugar, but such added foods may It is not something that people with special needs, such as women, children and the poor, can consume every day, which will cause an imbalance in iodine supplementation.

Due to the diversity of recipes, iodine may be added to food by chance. For example, in some places in the United States, iodate is used as a conditioner for making bread, or various cereals and animals produced in iodine-rich areas are used. Selling to iodine-deficient areas; improvements in transportation conditions and food preservation technology can also enable marine iodine-rich foods to enter inland areas; iodine is specifically added to some of the drugs we take, such as many vitamin preparations. The combination of the above factors plays an important role in preventing and treating iodine deficiency in industrialized countries, but it is not applicable to most countries and regions affected by iodine deficiency and lacks operability for implementation.

In short, the basic strategic strategy for preventing and treating iodine deficiency diseases is to vigorously promote comprehensive iodine supplementation measures based on iodized salt. Lipiodol can be used as an auxiliary measure to strengthen the effect of iodine supplementation, or as a promotion Alternative measures before iodized salt.

6. A 300-word essay on the experience of learning "Knowledge on the Prevention and Treatment of Iodine Deficiency Diseases"

Iodine is an essential element for the human body. What will happen to us if there is less iodine? ? Let’s first talk about the functions of iodine: 1. Responsible for substance metabolism and maintaining a constant body temperature; 2. Responsible for physical development; 3. Affecting the normal development of the brain.

You may say, since iodine is so important, where do we get iodine? In fact, we supplement iodine every day. The seafood and iodized salt we eat contain iodine. Kelp, in particular, is particularly rich in iodine.

There is endless iodine in our body, which is excreted in the urine. Therefore, no matter how much iodine is eaten, it will be excreted.

Moreover, eating too much iodine can cause thyroid disease! So what are the dangers of iodine deficiency? 1. Goiter, this disease is commonly known as "big neck". It is because of this disease that the neck is very thick; 2. Endemic cretinism, which is developmental delay, often causes mental retardation.

3. Fetal death. Iodine deficiency in pregnant women will cause fetal death and cause the flower of life to wither prematurely. So how do we prevent it? The best way is to eat iodized salt, which is safe, effective and convenient.

But one thing to note is to buy salt with the iodized salt logo on it. Don't buy that kind of private salt, it does not contain iodine.

Another way is to eat more iodine-rich foods, such as seafood, seaweed, and kelp, which are all good iodine-containing foods. So what is iodine? Iodine is a purple chemical element.

The iodine and iodophor in our lives are all made of iodine. Iodine is an indispensable ingredient. With proper intake of iodine, let us build a better home.

7. A 100-word essay on preventing iodine deficiency disease

Iodine is a trace element in the human body, and its role is not small. If the human body lacks iodine, it will cause "iodine deficiency syndrome". Deficiency disease”.

Everyone must have eaten iodized salt, so how did the name come about? Let me introduce it: Iodine is very important to the human body. If there is a lack of iodine, people will get sick. Iodine is a purple chemical element.

The iodine and iodophor in our lives are all made of iodine. So where does iodine come from? Iodine comes from the sea. Under sunlight, iodine is evaporated and then falls to the earth and ocean with rain and snow.

Most animals and people get iodine from food. After entering the human body, it returns to the ocean with the excretion of urine.

If there is a lack of iodine in the place where we live, people will not be able to keep up with their nutrition and suffer from "iodine deficiency disease". When the human body is deficient in iodine, the synthesis of thyroxine will be reduced.

Since the thyroid gland is the "contributor" to many organs, once there is a lack of iodine, the organs will report the news to the "commander" brain. The brain immediately orders the thyroid gland to produce large quantities of it.

But if the most important iodine is not increased, enough thyroid hormone cannot be synthesized, so it can only cause thyroid enlargement, resulting in the phenomenon of "big neck". Oh my God! What harm will be caused if there is a lack of iodine! However, what is more serious is that iodine deficiency can damage human brain development and cause mental retardation.

If pregnant women are deficient in iodine, their children will be disabled and have stunted brain development. If those children were not treated 3 months ago, then people would hear the cries of lovely children! Such children need others for everything. How many parents feel sorry for them and shed tears for them! In order to prevent iodine deficiency, the smart Chinese created iodized salt in 1995. In this way, when people eat salt, they can also supplement iodine.

From now on, we will see more people smiling instead of crying! In order to prevent "iodine deficiency disease", let us work together.

8. Essay on prevention of iodine deficiency disease

Knowledge on prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disease ●What is iodine deficiency disease (IDD)? Iodine deficiency disease is a series of damage caused by the lack of iodine in water and soil in the natural environment, resulting in low iodine content in plants and food, resulting in insufficient iodine intake in the body. It is the most widely distributed and invading disease in the world. An endemic disease.

Among 154 countries on five continents, at least 1 billion people in 130 countries live in iodine-deficient environments. An endemic disease that seriously endangers human physical and mental health, including endemic goiter, physical development disorders, etc.

●Iodine - Although the content of trace element iodine in the human body is very low, its role is very important. It must not be missing. Once the human body lacks iodine, a series of pathologies will occur. This is the so-called "iodine deficiency disease". Iodine is the raw material for the synthesis of thyroxine. The main physiological function of thyroxine is to promote the body's metabolism and promote the development and growth of fetuses and adolescents. In particular, its impact on the normal development of the nervous system and intelligence is more important.

If iodine, an important raw material for the synthesis of thyroid hormone, is lacking, the amount of thyroid hormone synthesized by the human body will be reduced or insufficient, which will affect metabolism, hinder the development and growth of the body, and cause abnormal physiological functions of the entire body. The first to bear the brunt is the impact on the nervous system and intellectual development, leading to varying degrees of intellectual impairment, mental retardation or intellectual disability.

●Why do people suffer from iodine deficiency? Most of the iodine needed by the human body comes from daily diet. However, the iodine content in the soil, rivers, lakes and air in many areas of the world, especially in large areas of China, is very low.

The grains, vegetables, fruits and other plants produced in these places also have very little iodine content; the livestock, poultry and even wild animals raised in these places also have little iodine content in their bodies. If people live in such an iodine-deficient environment for a long time and only eat local food, they will certainly not be able to get enough iodine supply.

If a sufficient amount of iodine is not supplemented within 3 to 6 months, symptoms of iodine deficiency will appear, leading to iodine deficiency disease. ●What are the manifestations and dangers of iodine deficiency disease? Iodine deficiency disease is a general term for a series of physiological changes and a series of pathological conditions that occur when the human body is deficient in iodine.

Its main manifestations and hazards are as follows: Iodine deficiency leads to mental retardation, stupidity, ***, and other intellectual disabilities. Iodine deficiency causes endemic goiter, commonly known as thick neck disease.

Severe iodine deficiency can lead to endemic cretinism. This is mainly due to severe iodine deficiency during fetal and infancy. Patients are stupid, short, deaf-mute, paralyzed and have a special and ugly appearance. Iodine deficiency in pregnant women can lead to premature birth, miscarriage, stillbirth, congenital malformations, congenital deafness and mute children, etc.

When the iodine deficiency is not very serious, although the typical symptoms of cretinism do not appear, there is still mental retardation or developmental delay, which is the so-called cretinism. Iodine deficiency diseases cause serious and multifaceted damage to human health, and have far-reaching harmful effects on society, especially on population quality and economic development.

In fact, iodine deficiency disease is a global hazard to humans. ●The severity of intellectual disability caused by severe iodine deficiency? The biggest danger of iodine deficiency is intellectual disability.

The most prominent manifestation is the intellectual disability of cretin patients. Cretinism is mostly caused by severe iodine deficiency in the mother during pregnancy, subsequent iodine deficiency in the fetus, and insufficient secretion of thyroid hormone, causing developmental delays, incomplete differentiation, or defects in the nervous system of the embryo, fetus, and newborn, leading to cretinism.

The unique symptoms of cretinism are as follows: The most prominent symptoms are mental retardation or mental retardation or ***; short body and short lower limbs, which become more obvious with age; deafness and mute; ugly face; paralysis . The intellectual disability of patients with cretinism is irreversible. In severe cases, they cannot take care of themselves or even take the initiative to eat. They will become a burden to their families and society throughout their lives.

●How to correct iodine deficiency? Eat qualified iodized salt. Consuming iodized salt is the best way to prevent and treat IDD. It is not only safe, effective, economical and easy to promote, but also meets the requirements of trace amounts, long-term and daily life. As long as you insist on eating qualified iodized salt every day, it can meet the body's requirements. Iodine requirements.
