Currently, iodine deficiency diseases are one of the most common diseases of non-infectious origin. In the Republic of Belarus, preventive measures are being taken to eliminate the problem of iodine deficiency, in particular, a state strategy has been developed and implemented, the main measure of which is the mandatory use of only iodized salt in the food industry and public catering. Despite the measures taken, the problem of iodine deficiency remains relevant, especially for children and pregnant women. According to the results of the assessment of iodine sufficiency in the world, published by the RIAC on Surveillance for Iodine Deficiency Diseases (ICCIDD) - a global non-commercial, spheral need created for the use of iodine deficiency and the consequences of its negative examination on health, adequate iodine intake is provided in the Republic of Belarus. In 2016, the Global Iodine Network published maps characterizing iodine sufficiency for two main assessment categories - school-age children and pregnant women, confirming the status of the Republic of Belarus as a country with adequate iodine sufficiency. However, despite the results achieved, from the standpoint of medical monitoring, the quality of studies conducted to monitor the iodine supply of the population, the risks of excessive salt intake remain relevant. In this paper, a comparative analysis of the dynamics of the primary incidence of thyroid pathology in the population of the Zavodskoy district of the city of Minsk for the period 2016-2020 was carried out. According to the results of the analysis, a positive trend in the primary incidence of simple goiter, nodular non-toxic goiter and thyroiditis was revealed, while the dynamics of the primary incidence of hypothyroidism did not change. According to the data presented, the presence of iodine deficiency with a median urinary iodine excretion of 196.15 gg/l was revealed in pregnant women of the Zavodskoy district of Minsk in 2021. An analysis of the questionnaire survey of the nature of the nutrition of pregnant women showed that most of the surveyed do not know about the benefits of using iodized salt for the development of the fetus, and therefore the reason for the formation of iodine deficiency in the body of pregnant women is the insufficient intake of iodine in the body and refusal to take iodine preparations. In the surveyed region, 22 % of women do not comply with the prescription of endocrinologists about the need to take iodine-containing drugs.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to consider the role of socio-hygienic monitoring in the implementation of the regional strategy for prevention of iodine deficiency. Materials and methods. The samples of salt from the market (2010-17) and salt which used by households of the Tyumen region (2013, 2016, 2017) were analyzed. Monitoring of retail markets in different municipalities was conducted to the analysis of the cost and assortment of iodized salt; Results of a representative sociological study of the behavior of families schoolchildren of grades 5-11 of the Tyumen region were examined. Results. The regional program for the prevention of iodine deficiency is being implemented in the Tyumen region for 20 years. This system of social and hygienic monitoring makes it possible to obtain objective data on the effectiveness of prevention and identify its weaknesses. At present, the need of the population of the region for iodized high-quality salt is provided completely: 0.17% of unsatisfactory samples of iodized salt was registered in 2016, unsatisfactory samples were not detected in 2017. A sociological study of the consumer behavior of parents of schoolchildren in the Tyumen region showed an increase in the number of parents who daily consume iodized salt in their home meals, from 53% in 2013 to 67% in 2017. In accordance with the analysis of salt samples from households in 2013, 26% of samples were content of iodine was in accordance with State Standards (GOST) R 51574-2000, in 2016 - 33%, in 2017 in all samples, the salt content of iodine met the requirements. The implemented regional policy of preventing iodine deficiency in the region is effective and requires further work with the population.

Introduction. Iodine deficiency diseases (IDD) are currently one of the most common pathologies of the endocrine system. The development of these diseases in the Primorsky region depends on the sufficient intake of iodine and various factors of exogenous and endogenous nature. The identification and establishment of the contribution of social and hygienic nature factors in the comprehensive impact to the occurrence and development of thyroid diseases, including IDD, is an important area of research. The aim of the study is to obtain information about the social and hygienic factors that influence the occurrence and development of thyroid pathology, including iodine deficiency diseases. Material and methods. Based on statistical data the dynamics in the population prevalence of diseases of the endocrine system in the Primorsky region was analyzed. To identify social and hygienic factors, a survey of 222 patients of the Center of Endocrinology Regional Clinical Hospital No. 2 (Vladivostok) was performed. Statistical processing of the results of the sociological survey was carried out using the Terentyev correlation pleiades method. Results. The development of thyroid pathology, including IDD, is influenced by unfavorable environmental conditions, physical inactivity and stressful situations in the workplace, unfavorable occupational factors including an exposure to noise, dust, radiation from a personal computer, lifestyle factors due to low physical activity, non-compliance with the waking and sleeping regime. More often, thyroid diseases develop in women and people over 50 years of age. The development of IDD is influenced by the observance of the principles of rational nutrition and the presence of certain foods in the diet. The contribution of these factors in the conditions of their combined impact on the human body is established. Conclusion. The identified complex of social and hygienic factors that are important for the occurrence and development of thyroid diseases can be further used to create targeted programs for the prevention of these diseases in the population of the Primorsky region.
