Component

Overt biochemical thyrotoxicosis incidence

Overt biochemical thyrotoxicosis incidence. Study-specific scope and measurement methods are recorded with each claim.

2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. After iodization, standardized thyrotoxicosis incidence initially rose 39% in the previously moderately deficient cohort and 52% in the mildly deficient cohort, peaking in 2000–2001 and 2004–2005 respectively.

    exposure
    Mandatory salt iodization at 13 ppm from mid 2000; western cohort previously moderately deficient and eastern mildly deficient; eastern follow-up only through 2008, western through 2017.
    limitations
    Population trend rather than randomized individual causation; age composition, diagnostic testing and prior thyroid autonomy can influence rates. Early rise and later fall are successive phases, not competing claims.

  2. Incidence returned to baseline or below by 2008; in the western, previously moderately deficient cohort it was 33% below baseline in 2016–2017.
